and not exceeding 15 hands, produced the Champion hackney 
mare in Mr. Livesey’s Nelly 3rd, of which the Judges report 
that “ her action and quality are simply superb,” whilst they 
regard her as “ almost the finest brood mare in England ; ” she 
took third prize in the corresponding class at Doncaster. The 
second prize went to Mr. E. T. G. Lindsey’s Pandora, ‘‘ a mare 
with fine action.” Mr. Walter Waterhouse took the third 
prize with Caprice, “ a mare with plenty of size and quality, and 
looks more like harness than riding ; ” she was awarded the 
reserve card at Doncaster. 
Class 15, for hackney mares or geldings above 14 hands, up 
to 15 stone, foaled in 188G, 1887, or 1888, was topped by the 
Earl of Londesborough’s beautiful mare Vanity, which the 
Judges “would have been glad to find amongst the brood 
mares ; ” she took second prize in the three-year-old filly class 
at Doncaster. The second and third were “ both good animals,” 
the former being Mr. Gilbert Greenall’s Paul, and the latter 
Mr. Waterhouse’s Cactus. 
Class 16, for hackney mares or geldings, above 14 hands, up 
to 12 stone, foaled in 1886, 1887, or 1888, was one of the 
best of the hackney classes. The first prize mare, Mr. William 
Pope’s Lady Isabella, “ is of the true hackney type, with extra- 
ordinary hind action.” The second prize was awarded without 
hesitation to Lady Brooke’s Queen of the Pale. Mr. Samuel 
Bose’s third prize gelding Royalty “is an improving young 
horse.”

Class 18, for pony brood mares and foal, not exceeding 14 
hands, was for the fourth time headed by the veteran mare 
Snarer, “ who keeps to her show form wonderfully well.” She 
is now the property of Sir Humphrey F. De Trafford, by whom 
she was entered. The second prize went to Mr. Henry Moore 
for Jinnie Wren, “ a promising young pony, and, with such a 
choice of sires as her owner possesses, she should become a very 
valuable brood mare.” Mr. Edward Green’s third prize Jessie
