SPOILTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET HOUGHTON MEETING.

THURSDAY.

The bright, dear weather of Wednesday afternoon wu
succeeded by a sharp frost, and this morning the heath wu
covered with • thick " hoar ;frost," which, however, to-
wards DOGS dieappeared before the aun's rays, and the heath
presented its usual verdant appearance. The features of
the day's racing were large fields, and the results, in many
instances, in favour of the " fielders." The last race of the
day quite flabbergasted the "gentlemen," who threw in for
large stakes on Conundrum, while the winner, Cock Robin,
was not backed by his owner for even one guinea, although
he was, however, supported in the ring to • little money.
The day's racing, which presented no other features of in-
terest, will be found fully described below :

considerable delay. Eventually Peignoir and Hetty got off
well in front, followed by Tiaiphone and Keane in hot
pursuit Upce entering the cords Hetty tired, which let up
Tiaiphone and Keane. A vigorous effort to catch Peignoir
was made by the latter couple, but they never got up, and

and The Flower Safety. On two occasions the last men-
tioned broke away, overpowered his rider, and ran to the
Duke's Stand. He did not get up in time on the last freak,
and consequently did not take part in the race. A tedious
delay occurred at the post, and when the flag was dropped
every person at the start was suprised when " the Admiral, '
who was assisting Mr. M'George, declared it a "Burt." At the
time the otsce was given several of the competitors were
away from the general body, whilst right and left of the
others were Estrekla and Bolero considerably in advance
of the rest. This pair had the issue to themselves, and
Estrada making the running in the centre of the course
won by a neck ;a length divided the second and third, and a
head separated third and fourth. Orisette was left at the
post, and Churchman and Curie got so badly off that they
never got near their horses.
