of his forties during a priestly flutter for safe and sane bets at the		1

up of events national and Dublin details, the doubles of Perkin		4
and Paullock, peer and prole, when the classic Encourage Hackney		5
Plate was captured by two noses in a stablecloth finish, ek and nek,		6
some and none, evelo nevelo, from the cream colt Bold Boy		7
Cromwell after a clever getaway by Captain Chaplain Blount's		8
roe hinny Saint Dalough, Drummer Coxon, nondepict third, at		9
breakneck odds, thanks to you great little, bonny little, portey		10
little, Winny Widger! you're all their nappies! who in his never-		11
