Epsom Spring Meeting - Great Metropolitan Steeple-Chase: the Jump at the Brook, 1850. Horseracing on Epsom Common in Surrey. 'The ground, from...the nature of the soil and the effect of the weather, was extremely heavy and distressing to the horses, especially in the lower portion, where it was all but impossible for them to make a trot of it...A fine race home then ensued, which ended in favour of Fugitive by half a length; Maria Day second, Rachel thiid, the rest nowhere...'. Mr Stafford's Fugitive was ridden by H. Bradley. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
