agst. “ Gazelle,’ 8 to 1 agst. “ Leila,” and 10 to 1 agst. any other. 
‘Conqueror’ made the running from “The Lodger” and “Candy,” with 
“Teila” last. After going a little over a mile “The Lodger” took command, 
but he fell almost immediately, and ‘‘ Congneror”’ again held command. Half a 
mile from home “ Leila” ran out, and the favourite drawing up took the lead 
turning into the straight and won cleverly by three lengths: six divided second 
and third. “ Penitant”’ was fourth. 
AN OPEN MAILITARY VWAEDEN STEERPLE-CHASE of 40 
sovs. Two miles. Four starters. 
THE ROWAL ARTILLERY WELTER STEEPLE-CHASE

6 to 1 agst. ‘The General” and “ Peter,” and 10 to 1 agst. any other. 
“ Spider” cut out the work, closely attended by “ Puff,” and in this way they 
went for half a mile, when “Star One” took up the running. Rounding the bend 
for the straight, “Star One” and ‘“ Puff” were well ahead of the others, and a 
good race home between the two ended in favour of “ Puff” by a length; a bad 
third.
