Horses .—These animals were less numerous than we expected to 
find them, but the southern and western counties are more cele¬ 
brated for their sheep and cattle than for horses. Even the special 
prizes offered for New Forest ponies were so little thought of that 
no real response was made. The cart-horses were scarcely a show 
at all. The stock-horses were scarcely worth notice except for 
breeding ordinary local farm-horses. For this purpose there were 
three or four active and hardy animals. The entries altogether in 
the 14 Classes were under seventy head, and a large share of these 
w'ere colts, hacks, and ponies. The 1st prize hunter, sent by Mr. 
Hambro, M.P., of Milton Abbey, Blandford, was a strong, active, 
good-looking chestnut; so was Mr. Battarn’s 4-year-old bay mare; 
but beyond these and two or three others, which possessed gentility 
with strength and activity, they were common and carty. The 
hacks and ponies were only of local interest. 
The following are the awards :
