KING'S PLATE ARTICLES.

IT is his MAJESTY'S Command, that these following Rules be observed by the Owners and Riders of all such Horses, Mares, and Geldings, as shall run for his MAJESTY'S PLATES at Newmarket,

I. EVERY horse, mare, or gelding, that runneth for the said Plates, shall carry twelve stone, fourteen pounds to the stone, three heats.*

II. Every person that putteth in a horse, mare, or gelding, for the said Plate, is to shew such horse, mare, or gelding, with the marks, name, and name of the owner, to be entered at the King's Stables in Newmarket the day before they run; and shall then produce a certificate under the hand of the breeder, that his horse, mare, or gelding, be no more than years old the grass

before.

III. Every horse, mare, or gelding, that runneth, is to start between the hours of one and four in the afternoon; and to be allowed half an hour between each heat to rub.

IV. Every horse, mare, or gelding, that runneth on the wrong side of the posts or flags, or is distanced in any of the heats, shail have no share of the said Plate, nor be suffered to run any more. V. The horse, mare, or gelding, that winneth any two heats, winneth the Plate; but if three several horses, mares, or geldings, win each of them a heat, then those three, and only they, to run a fourth heat, and the horse, mare, or gelding, that winneth the fourth heat, shall have the Plate.

VI. And each horse's, mare's, or gelding's place, as he or they come in, by the Ending-post, each heat, as 1st, 2d, 3d, &c. shall be determined by such judges as shall be appointed for that purpose by the Master of the Horse. And in case any horse, mare, or gelding, shall be then or after proved to be above the age of years the grass before, the owner or owners of such horse, mare, or gelding, shall be made incapable of ever running for any of the King's Plates hereafter.

* By order, this is altered to One Heat, and different weights are appointed.

VII. As many of the riders as shall cross, jostle, or strike, or use any other foul play, as shall be judged by such person or persons as shall be appointed by the Master of the Horse, such rider shall be made incapable of ever riding any horse, mare, or gelding, for any of his Majesty's Plates hereafter; and such owners shall have no benefit of that Plate; but such owners may be permitted to run any horse, mare, or gelding, for any other of his Majesty's free Plates hereafter.

VIII. Every rider shall, immediately after each heat be run, be obliged to come to the Ending-post with his horse, mare, or gelding, then and there to alight, and not before, and there to weigh to the satisfaction of the judges appointed for that purpose.

IX. And in case of neglect or refusal thereof, such owners and riders shall be immediately declared incapable of running or riding any more for this or any of his Majesty's Plates hereafter.

X, And in case any difference shall arise, relating to their ages, or in their running, or to these nis Majesty's Orders, &c. the same to be determined by such person or persons as shall be appointed by the aforesaid Master of the Horse.

These Articles will continue in force for succeeding years, unless directed to the contrary by his Majesty.

FORM OF A CERTIFICATE

OF HAVING WON

A KING'S PLATE.

THESE are to certify, That his Majesty's Plate of a Hundred

Guineas was won at

the

day of

called

182 , by

A. B. Steward,

C. D. Clerk of the Course.

}

*Lord Lieutenant of the County.

To his Grace the Duke of Dorset,

the Dubee to his Majesty.}

[The signature of the Lord Lieutenant alone is sufficient, but that can seldom be obtained without first producing to him a certificate signed by the Steward and Clerk of the Course.]

N.B. The certificate, when properly signed, is payable at sight to the winner of the plate (or to any other person, if endorsed by the winner) at the Office of the Clerk of his Majesty's Stables, in the Royal Mews, Pimlico.

Since the alteration in the Act of Parliament, respecting Stamps for receipts, the Clerk of the Stables requires the person presenting a certificate for payment, to provide a receipt Stamp of the proper value, which at present is two shillings and sixpence.

* If the Lord Lieutenant be officially out of the kingdom, the signature of the Vice Lieutenant is admissible. The Certificate for the Ascot Heath Plate must be signed by the Master of his Majesty's Hounds, instead of the Lord Lieutenant.
