Clydesdales. — The  six  classes  were  small  in  niiniher  with 
twenty-three  entries,  and  the  quality  was  moderate.  The 
Judge  reports  that  there  was  little  to  choose  between  the 
three  exhibits  in  Class  8.  The  first  and  second  prize  winners  in 
(Mass  9 were  two  nice  colts,  but  of  different  kinds,  the  first 
showing  more  quality.  Class  10,  with  four  exhibits,  was 
l)robably  the  best  in  the  male  section.  The  first  prize  was 
gained  bv  the  Duke  of  Leeds  with  a dark-brown  colt  of 
big  .size.  The  second  was  gained  by  a black  colt  which  was 
not  shown  in  great  form,  but  which  looked  like  making  a 
nice  horse.  Amongst  the  females,  the  first  prize  winner  in 
CMass  12,  for  three-year-olds,  was  easily  found  in  a dark- 
brown  very  big  filly,  which  was  shown  in  fine  form  combinetl 
with  nice  (juality. 
The  Male  Chain] )ionship  awards  were  both  gained  by 
Messrs.  A.  and  W . Montgomery  for  liejiner  and  Baron  Alister, 
respectively.  The  Female  Chanqiion  was  Mr.  Fenwick 
Wilson’s  filly,  the  first  jirize  animal  in  Class  12  referi-ed  to 
above;  and  the  He.serve  Female  CMiampion  was  Mr.  Thomas 
Smith’s  Baroness  Bnryany. 
Suffolks. — The  entry  was  abo^e  the  level  of  former  years, 
numbering  as  many  as  forty-four  animals  in  eight  classes. 
The  prizes  in  two  of  these,  viz.,  the  classes  for  stallions  foaled 
in  or  before  1900  and  geldings  foaled  in  or  before  1899,  were 
provided  by  the  Suffolk  Horse  Society. 
The  Judge  (Mr.  Horace  Wolton)  rejiorted  as  follows  : — 
In  Class  14,  for  stallions  foaled  in  or  before  1900,  were  four  good 
representatives  of  the  breed,  affording  the  public  an  opportunity  of  seeing  the 
Suffolk  in  his  developed  form,  .symmetrical  and  compact.  Conspicuous  amongst 
them  was  Mr.  Alfred  Smith’s  Saturn,  a grand  eight-year-old,  the  winner 
of  Champion  and  many  first  prizes.  The  second  prize  went  to  the  llev. 
H.  Ta3dor’s  five-j'ear-old  Court  I'ojj,  also  a typical  Suffolk.  The  three-year-old 
stallions  (Class  15)  formed  a nice  collection,  and  here  again  were  winners  at 
previous  important  exhibitions,  including  another  entiy  b}'  Mr.  Alfred  Smith, 
Rendlexham  Saint,  a worthy  son  of  the  well-known  sire.  Prince  Albert,  which 
was  placed  first.  Second  honours  were  awarded  to  Mr.  K.  Eaton  White’s 
Boulye  Monarch,  a very  promising  “Prince  Wedgewood”  colt. 
Class  16,  stallions  foaled  in  1902,  was  a remarkably  good  one  of  14  entries, 
representatives  of  the  best-known  studs  in  the  country  being  in  the  ring.  In 
such  excellent  compaiy,  the  champion  at  the  last  Show  of  the  Suffolk 
Agricultural  Association,  Mr.  A.  Gerald  Smith’s  Pilate  by  “Wedgewood,” 
again  came  prominently  to  the  front ; he  is  a very  fine  animal  of  good  size  and 
quality,  nice  colour,  and  grand  actioir.  Mr.  Gerald  Smith  is  to  be  congratulated, 
as  a comparatively  young  exhibitor,  upon  having  been  able  to  produce  what  is 
generally  regarded  as  the  finest  Suffolk  of  the  day  ; but  it  is  not  to  be  forgotten 
that  this  gentleman’s  early  training  was  amongst  the  best  examples  of  the 
breed.  Mr.  Alfred  Rendlexham  Sorcerer,  a “Prince  Albert”  youngster, 
was  second  in  the  class,  a distinction  he  richly  deserved  in  a competition  as 
keen  as  this  was.  Indeed,  he  ran  the  winner  very  closely  and  inay  make
