Gordon and to pay her fare back to Melbourne, he had sold his share in the horse for £75. At the start of the race, Gordon kept well in the background, but on reaching the second fence two of the leading horses refused to cross ; other two led over it, and soon the active Viking, clearing the obstacle lightly and easily, made a little efifort and placed himself even with them. Then the three strode side by side for a long time, and entered together on the straight run for the finish. Gordon's s
...kill deter- mined the contest. He brought the staunch little Viking, overweighted as she was under a handicap of 11 St. 3 lbs., out of the trio, and though the Digitized by VjOOQIC IN MELBOURNE 209 horses behind him laboured hard to the goading of whip and spur, Gordon easily put a dozen lengths of clear turf behind him, and as he neared the winning-post, he reined in the gallant Viking to an easy canter, while stand and flat let go its pent-up roar of applause.
Gordon passed on unheeding in a humour much less triumphant than cynical, for in spite of his love of horses he had taken a mortal aversion to racing, "I do not find much pleasure now in ridiug," he writes the week after this Cup festival ; ** I did not go near the course on Cup Day, nor yet on Friday; and on Saturday, after my steeplechase was over, I locked myself up in one of the empty horse-boxes in the saddling paddock, and smoked a pipe while the other races were being run.
