The Athletic club eleven played a fairly good game, considering their lack of training. Peters and Hunt, at half back, did some good rushing, and Morrison, at left end, played an excellent game.

Sheffield, who had the largest handicap, was the first man to complete the first lap, followed by Williams at some distance. Brown dropped out at the end of the first lap on account of some trouble with his saddle. At the beginning of the second lap Williams passed Sheffield. Bailey and Holmes came in sight.
