Four
days
later
Holmes
and
I
were
again
in
the
train
,
bound
for
Winchester
to
see
the
race
for
the
Wessex
Cup
.
Colonel
Ross
met
us
by
appointment
outside
the
station
,
and
we
drove
in
his
drag
to
the
course
beyond
the
town
.
His
face
was
grave
,
and
his
manner
was
cold
in
the
extreme
.
"
I
have
seen
nothing
of
my
horse
,
"
said
he
.
"
I
suppose
that
you
would
know
him
when
you
saw
him
?
"
asked
Holmes
.
The
colonel
was
very
angry
.
"
I
have
been
on
the
turf
for
twenty
years
and
never
was
asked
such
a
question
as
that
before
,
"
said
he
.
"
A
child
would
know
Silver
Blaze
with
his
white
forehead
and
his
mottled
off-foreleg
.
"
"
How
is
the
betting
?
"
"
Well
,
that
is
the
curious
part
of
it
.
You
could
have
got
fifteen
to
one
yesterday
,
but
the
price
has
become
shorter
and
shorter
,
until
you
can
hardly
get
three
to
one
now
.
"
"
Hum
!
"
said
Holmes
.
"
Somebody
knows
something
,
that
is
clear
.
"
As
the
drag
drew
up
in
the
enclosure
near
the
grandstand
I
glanced
at
the
card
to
see
the
entries
.
