TOBY—was a horse of much recent celebrity as a RACER, and has since covered as a STALLION in some estimation. He was bred by MR. BULLOCK; was got by _Highflyer_, dam by _Matchem_. In 1789, when three years old, he won 100 guineas at Newmarket, 200 guineas at Epsom, and 1100 guineas at York, beating six others. In 1790, he beat _Euphrosyne_ across the flat at Newmarket for 500 guineas. The next Meeting he beat Sir W. Aston's _Marcia_, the same Course, 200 guineas. In 1791, he did not start. In 1792, Craven Meeting, Newmarket, he again beat _Euphrosyne_ the two year old course, 200 guineas. The next day but one, he won the great Oatlands Stakes of 100 guineas, fifty-six subscribers, _half forfeit_; beating _Coriander_, _Asparagus_, _Eager_, _Precipitate_, _Stride_, _Highlander_, _Buzzard_, _Rhadamanthus_, _Vermin_, _Turnip-Top_, and nine others. The next Meeting he received 75 guineas forfeit from _Alderman_, and 50 guineas from _Exciseman_; at the expiration of which season he was withdrawn from the turf, and advertized as a stallion, to cover racing mares _gratis_, and others at two guineas, and half a crown.
TOILS.—Park nets, of great strength and magnitude, are so called. They are used in taking deer alive, for removal from one park to another; or from his Majesty's parks to the hunting paddocks at Swinley Lodge, in Windsor Forest, for the purposes of the chase.
TONGUE.—The tongue of a horse is sometimes lacerated by the bit of the bridle being too narrow in the mouth-piece; as also by the frequent _petulant_ jerks of the rider. These, which are slight in the first instance, are occasionally repeated, till they become perfect cadaverous ulcers, with a slough (similar to a sitfast) in the middle of each. In cases of this description, the tongue should be held on one side, while the part is daily touched with a strong _solution_ of _borax_ in water, till the slough is fallen off; when it may be soon cured with equal parts of honey and tincture of myrrh, well incorporated with each other.
TRACK—is the term used to imply the _footmark_ of either man or beast; but, in the language of the field, it admits of some deviations. We _track_ a man, a horse, an ox, or an ass; we _slot_ a deer; we _foot_ a fox; and we _prick_ a hare.
