Mr. Harvey's white Master Henry Ust. Old. 0 But few out of the 18 entries, it will be seen, came out to race, and no wonder—the deluge was at its worst. Climax took the lead, and carried it to a satisfactory climax. Most of the way the ponies rode in a pack, Master Henry showing a spurt at half-distance round, while Leechcraft held out pretty evenly during the run. Midas ran very quietly in rear, and indeed at one time seemed to fall away altogether, but was to be seen putting on steam as they came home, and made a fair third. For this race we have no time.
