The gallop of the morning was done by Columbus with G. P. Gram riding, the pony doing 1% mile in 2483, (others made the time less) last mile 2102, last X 1371, last half 1024, last quarter 31. The.only thing against the performance was he bored in badly on the rails. This in a race may make all the difference between winning and losing. This gallop confirms the position he at present holds as first favourite for next Monday's Derby.
Naming Morn did an attractive 1% mile in 254, last quarter 32, but I was not so pleased with Radiant Morn, who did 1% mile in 3433, last quarter 324.
