ENGLISH GRAND PRIX NOMINATIONS. Twenty-five English entries have- been made f. r this years Grand Prix de Paris, which there are good grounds for believing will be brought to a decision, though, naturally, no date has vet been fixed. Nearly all the leading English two-vear olds of last year figure amongst the twenty-five candidates from this country. Mr. Hulton having entered Flfinella and Atlieling. and Mr. Neumann Kigaro and Argos, in addition to Adorno, a son of Spearmint and Siberia, and st. Patricks Bine, a colt by Desmond — Petit Bleu. Lord DAbornoiCs good filly Eos. aa well as Lard Derbys Canyon and the Polymelus colt, lhaiaris. an- also engaged, whilst among others well known to Newmarket visitors last year ar.- Jack Annandale now. the property of Vicom e de Eontare.-p. Sirian. Bol dKCOsae, Cannobie. Cretan Swell. Coster Girl filly and All Bay. Potnerania, sister to Poaamera, is another Grand Irix entry, and although she has yet to make her first appearance in public, it is dear that she is thought sonic-thing of. otherwise so tapoltant a liability would not have been incurred for her. Mr. W. M. G. Stager has nominated, in ndditbm to the smart Koater Girl lilly. two other unnamed ones in the colt by Cicero out of Lily of the Valley and the colt by the St. I.oger winner, Challacombe. ■ lit of Escalade, both of which are still maiden :.

England looks like being splendidly represented in this year s Claud Prix, if the ra.-e takis place, and victory for "lie of oar hones would be as gratifying to the sportsmen of our principal ally as to ourselves.— London Spoiling Life.
