Since then Fortune has come with both hands full, as in 1889, 1890, 1891, and 1892 he hashad it all his own way in the Waterloo Cup. In 1889 he sprung a mine on us in the shape of his puppy Fullerton, by Greentick—Bit of Fashion. Whatever may have been the opinion of the critics after the division between this dog and his kennel companion, Troughend —and it is not unlikely that his colours would have been.

On his own account lowered by Herschel, who was going in his best form, had not the latter got away with a demon hare that ran him as stiff as the proverbial poker—nevertheless, there could be no mistaking his quality after his brilliant performance in 1890 and the two following years. As for Troughend, the divider in 1889, he did very badly, and was very lucky to get as far as he did in the Purse. The runner-up, Downpour, was a sterling little bitch, very fast and clever withal; with Fullerton out of the way she would have easily accounted for the stake. In the Waterloo Cup of 1892 Fullerton set a seal on his fame and broke all records by winning outright for the third year running-after having divided with his kennel companion.
