Scarce racecard for the 1885 Derby at Epsom won by the Fred Archer-ridden Melton,
Dorling's List of Epsom Races for the Second Day of the Summer Meeting, Wednesday 3rd June 1885, featuring The Derby and five other races, unfortunately this scarce & historic racecard has an unsightly water stain.
This was Fred Archer's fourth of his five Derby wins. Melton would go on to win the St Leger.
