At three years old he was winning the great Sweepstakes at Washington, when unluckily, he fell. The same fall, at Easton, he won the Jockey Club colt's purse; at five years old, he won the first day's Jockey Club purse at Easton; at Marlborough, the same fall, he made a capital race, three four mile heats: the first heat, he was beat by Mr. Jenifer's Chance colt six inches, (in bad condition) running the heat over that heavy course in 8m. 6s.; the second and third heats were won, severely contested, by Boas, a capital horse.
