The Derby Show , 1906. 
is a beautiful quality mare, but lighter in build than those placed above her. 
Maud or a , by “ Rosador,” headed the under 15-2 class of brood mares. Shown 
in excellent form with fine action, she was an outstanding winner, being 
followed by Mr. Evans’ B.B. Iris , another good all round mare, with excellent 
shoulders and limbs. In a large class of foals the winner owned “Copper King” 
as sire, a well grown, well balanced dark chestnut with good limbs and action. 
Three-year-old fillies formed a good class, Mr. Buttle winning with Boquhan 
Sunrise , a beautiful dark chestnut by “Rosador.” She made an excellent show, 
and later on was Reserve Champion. Mr. Evans was second with his brilliant 
actioned bay, Terrington Ruth , bred by Sir Gilbert Greenall. Two-year-old 
fillies were an average class, the winner, Mr. Cooke’s Lilladora , making a fine 
show. Yearling fillies were easily headed by Sir Walter Gilbey’s Lively Bees- 
wing , which made quite a sensational show, added to which she is very typical 
and well grown. Beyond the winners, the geldings in hand were moderate. 
Ponies. — These were very strongly represented, and in Class 
32 (three-year-olds and upwards) several brilliant ponies were 
entered, Mr. Ravenhill Stock winning with Son o’ Horace , 
a beautiful bay of excellent shape and action, followed by 
Mr. Whitworth’s Jack Spratt and Mr. Price’s Lyndhurst 
Phosphorus , both fine movers. Only two pony brood mares 
came out, both, however, good ones. Mr. Tatem’s Mel-Valley 
Princess , so well-known in harness classes, was first, with 
a good foal by “ Ruby,” and Mr. Price’s good-looking Gold 
Fleece , by “ Sir Horace,” was second. Mr. Price won in the small 
class with Berry Hill Smart , a fine moving pony, bred by 
Mr. Hollins and sired by “ Prosjiector.” 
Harness Horses. — The innovation of permitting horses in 
harness to be shown in more than one class, where eligible, was 
evidently appreciated, and probably helped to bring together 
the best classes that have been seen this season at any show. 
In a good class of ponies under 14 hands, Mr. T. B. Sykes won 
with a quality bay gelding, Fylde Forester , which made a good 
show, followed by Burlington Sir Horace , also a fine mover. 
In the 15 hands class a new comer was seen out, Dr. Dalston- 
Ewbanke’s roan mare, Affection , the heavy going apparently 
suiting her, as she made a great show, with the best of manners. 
Here Mr. Sykes stood second with Fylde Zarena , whose action 
is good all round, though she is somewhat plain. In the over 
15 hands class, Mr. McKibbin won somewhat easily with 
Langton Gelding , followed by Mr. Burnell-Tubbs’ Richmond 
winner, Gongelt , with Mrs. Hartley Batt’s Prince Edward , a 
quality chestnut, third. The foregoing classes were for novices 
which had not won a prize of over 6/. prior to the closing of 
the entries. 
In a small class of ponies under 13 hands, Mr. Waud 
scored a meritorious win with Ferniehurst Fortuna , a sweet 
pony mare by “ Sir Horace.” There were three excellent 
ponies under 14 hands, Miss Clarke’s Highhrook Belle making 
light of the heavy going, and moving in brilliant form. So
