SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

EPSOM SPRING MEETING.—TausapAy.

The Ream Spring Meeting, which formerly occupied an
insignificarst position to the fixtures of the man, has of
late yearn takes a far higher rank in the racing world.
Originally promoted by a body of licensed victuallers, who
subscribed to the Metropolitan Stakes as their especial
race, the City sod Suburbaa Handkap hes now totally out-
dripped that rsoe, and become the main feature of the
meeting, a result mostly owing to its being run over •
more popular distance than the Metropolitan Stakes. The
recent beautiful weather gave rise to anticipations of an
unusually large attendance of pleasure seekers sad
"liberated cockneys," and there expectations were tem-
pletely realised. Although the programme was oonei•
dared to bs somewhat deficient in comparison with per
rums years, yet in as far as the racing went, the various
Stakes were productive of capital sport. Notwithstanding
that the moreing was somewhat dull and hazy in Surrey,
the afternoon proved of • most favourable character, and the
sun shoos with a warmth that reminded the visitors of the
" Derby day." The course was tolerably good going,
although • trifle bard, but it was well covered with
herbage, the modest daisy dappling the fresh green grass far
away in the directive of Tattesham Corner. The "inner
ring " project was carried out with questionable success,
soda number of gentlemen of high character and monetary
reputatioa were evidently annoyed at the excluaiveness of
the arrangement Still, as attaining the object io view, we
have hiller doubt the innovation was well appreciated by
that parte= of speculators who had real busies= to truer
.-eel, • It ise et_ fed seeenaced that eely naeinlien of
Tattersall's would be admitted to this privileged space, but
a notice was posted at the entrance to the effect that mem.
ben of Tattersall's sod the Newmarket Rooms were
admissible. The extreme fineness of the weather had
evidently tempted • large number of visitors from London,
and from an early hour aosumptive con ate were beard in
the town, as if the pailleepts or. the towhee and omnibuses
wished to provoke something like a Derby-day negation.
The racing of the day will be found chronicled below, and
it will be sufficient to remark that the City and Sale-
urban Handicap was won by • neck by Adventurer, who
had for some tiros bees first favourite, owing to
the reports of his private trials with Joey Jones, and his
creditable running at the Doncaster Spring meeting.. Um-
pre, who was second, ran in front throughout, and seemed
to have the race in hand all the way up the straight;
but directly Adventurer went up to him the Americo ran
like a thorough "cur," sod, laying his earl busk, refired to
try, or be might have won easily. Adventurer's success
directed fresh atteution to the Derby chanced his stable
companion, Noticed Guard, about whom 15 to 1 was asked
for when the name of the winner of the City and
Suburban had been put up. Adventurer end Umpire,
when struggling home, "bung" very much at the finish,
and after the race Umpite's o.lllr aud jockey lodged • com-
plaint againat Adventurer for "cannoning;" or foal riding.
After a careful investigation, the acting stewards decided
that Adventurer had woo, • decision received with pro.
longed cheering in the betting ring. The following are

instant the gag was dropped. Adventurer, next the
took up the rennin at a good pace, his attendants
comprising Catch-em-Alive, Umpire, Newhard,
(Iroilener, and Escape. When they arrived at
the top of the Fuzzes Hill Catch-'em Alive deprived Ad-
venturer of the lead and Umpire took *woad place, Adven-

wiener. Shouts were here beard of "the American wins,*
hetet the distaste Adventurer challenged and raced with
Umpire for • few Wide*, the two banging towards each other
clear of the remainder, and the struggle became a match
between them. At the couimenoement of the Grand
Stand Enclosure Adventurer was milled upon, sod he im-
mediately went to the neck of Umpire, but the latter ran
like a thorough coward, and the light weight having all the
best of it from this point finned a very interlines race
first by a neck. Genre' Hess was beaten two lengths from
Umpire, sad Coamt, close up, was fourth. Oberon was
fifth, Asteroid sixth, Newebureb seventh ; and at the head
of the anceeding lot were Catch.'em-Alive, Portland, sad
Torn of Luck. Barbados. sad Colleen Shim trotted in

by the owner and jockey of Umpire, on the grounds of a
"canna" aod during the interval of the decision being an-
moaned 3 and 4 to 1 were laid that Adventurer got the
stakes. Admiral Roos, Mr. Alexander, and Lord West-
, moreland (for Loyd Coventry) heard evidence in the com-
plaint, bat after a brief exammation the judge's decision was
coofirmed, and the enannatioo of Adventurer's success wee
received with great cheering. On returning to the weighiog-
room the starter eemplamed of the insulairdinatioe of
Noble, the jockey of Adventurer, and the complaint will be
heard by the stewards this day (Friday).
