"Despite erratic steering, Bedford, starting at 45 to Quintin's 40½, led by a length and a quarter at the quarter mile. After this it was spurt and counter spurt all the way, with Quintin gradually closing, and taking the lead by a few feet at the mile. But Bedford spurted to 37 and regained the lead to win a fine race by half a length." [HRR]
