THE CCP DAY.

It 1., generally conceded that the Cup Day at Goodwood at-
tracts the most brilliant company of the whole week, and to-day
saw in• exception the attendance, independently of being the
larger* of the three days, was decidedly the most select and aris-
tocratic. The Prince of Wales and Prince Teck were again pre-
sent. 3, were also the whole of the distinguished party staying at
Goothsixxlhouse, the residence of the Duke of Richmond.
During Wednesday night the weather underwent a very marked
change: the wind rose and blew in gusts, an that it was posi-
tively chilly, and there was • general expression of regret among
the sinters that such a change should have taken place to mar
the enjoymeut of the pleasantest reunion of the season,
and which corn Wnes genuine sport with all the characteristics
of a picnic. At an early hoar this morning the special and
' ordinary trains which were despatched from London, Brighton,
Portsinouth, and the places adjacent, were crowded with ele-
gantly attired ladies and gentlemen, the occasion being looked
upon in the last opportunity which would be afforded for the
patrons of the turf of aseembling together prior to the depar-
ture of a lot of the sportsmen for the shooting season. All the
familiar faces of the leading patrons of the turf were
observable, and Drayton and Chichester were never more
crowded, and all was activity, every conceivable
arrangement
being toads fur pleasure seekers to witness the race
the
Cup despite the race being deemed a certainty for Vauban. As
on the stakes day, war prices were asked for conveyance to the
course. The drive from the stations through the ducal park
was rendered more than ordinarily uncomfortable from the dr.
curnstanos that tho wind blew the dust about in clouds. and
begrimed those who were not fortunate enough to he ensconced
in the inside of vehicle. There was a brilliant assemblage on
the lawn end beneath the noble trees, but the effect of the scene
was sonsiderably marred by the positive coldness of the
wind, which rendered the feehionable summer costume
of the fair see almost a mockery, and compelled the

observable, told how much this sudden change In the weather
had been felt. The course presented a carious appearance,
foutpamengers lining the rails on either side for a considerable
distance down the running ground, whilst far up Trundle-hill
parties of pleasure-seekers were seated discussing the good
things provided, not on the card, but hi Innumerable hampers.
The ring and stand were even more crowded than on the previous
day, anti the receipts for admission to the ring were considerably
In excess of any preceding anniversary—lndeed, this has beets
the case all the week, and the statistics show every large increase
In the point of attendance. The card was a full one, containing
as it did no fewer than ten items, but the sport provided was of
a very meagre description for Goodwood, and Indeed the pro-
gramme would scarcely have been tolerated at a minor meeting,
and the only redeeming future. were the beauty of the ducal
park and the extraordinary high-class quality of the competitors
engaged in the various races. The race of the day was of course
far the Cup, hut it will be observed that that valuable prim was
contested for by only a limited field. Soon after assembling on
the course It transpired that the pen had been put through
the name of D'Estournel, and that Lecturer• the steble-com-
pardon of Vadat% would be an absentee. Consequent upon
these announcements, the race was looked upon in the light of a
"moral" for the Duke of Beaufort's colt, and general satisfaction
was evinced when it became likely that the two great events of
the meeting would fall to the noble and popular Master of the
Horse—the Duke of Beaufort—who had already wou the Good-
wood Stakes with Goiters. Vauban, it is hardly necessary to
say, won the Two Thousand, and, after being a good
favourite, ran third for the Derby. The partisans of
the Danbury stable have always maintained that sluing
has the special forte of Vauban, and they were e
pointed that he did not win the Derby, contendingthTeargledlara
not have lost had there been *good pace far him, Incas entirely
falling to fulfil his mission to make the pace sutficiently strong
to be of service to the son of Muscovite. As previously men-
tioned, there were only five runners, the absentees from the
fourteen coloured on the card being Dalby, lecturer, Rama.
Moose, Animate, Knight of the Garter, D'Eatournel, Clarioe, and
The Padishalc The Duke of Beaufort's colt was made an Im-
mense favourite, odds of 7 tot being laid on him. The treat In de-
mand was Regalia, a great public favourite who ran second
to Lecturer in the Ascot Cup, but who made her reputation by
her remarkably easy victory in the (Mks In Gladiateur's year.
The Cup was set for decision at the comparatively early hour of
o'clock, and the appearance of the competitors, who were all
saddled prior to that time, created great Interest. Vauban,
however, was the lion of the hour, as, Independent of his being
favourite for the Cup, be was the especial fancy of several turf
"wiseacres" for the St. Leger, and while they maintain that the
Derby running was all wrong they assert that when the pair
meet at Doncaster Vatiben will have his revengenpon Hermit for
his detest in the Blue Mend. Vauban wu sent to the pest In that
faultless condition which distinguishes all John Day's favourites,
and when he cantered past In the preliminary, it was plain that
mutual In the world could be better, or have received a more
perfect preparation for a rue of this severe nature. He was
ridden by Parry, who btu this season become associated with
the Danbury stable, whilst Fordhani, who seems linked
with the victories of John Day's horses, rode Miss Have-
lock, manifestly for the purpose of forcing the pace
for the favourite. The great jockey, it will be remem-
bered, fulfilled a like oaks on John Davis to serve Lec-
turer in the Northamptonshire Stakes. Regalia was fancied
In several quarters, and certainly the condition of the mare left
no ground for complaint, as she had made a decided improve-
ment since Ascot The stable, It seems, had been dissatisfied
with 4igartlield's riding of the mare in the Ascot
Cup, and retained the fortunate jockey of the day,
Daley, who seems to be at • premium since his
memorable Derby and Oaks victories. The horses having
cantered, were paraded in front of the stand enclosure
for the Inspection of the royal party and those on the
lawn, who appeared to take much interest in the equine cele-
brities. The bookmakers, who have been hit rather heavily
recently, were quite chapfallea at the withdrawal of Lecturer
and D'Kstournel, and the hopes of the fielders were reposed in
nedale. When the flag fell, Fordharn rushed to the front
with Miss Havelock to "take them along," and owing to the real
of the jockey the Northamptonshire Makes victreas was
at one point of the race leading nearly a hundred
yards. Her stable companion was always at the head of
the others, and took up the running immediately she was In
difficulties. Daley called upon Regalia at the entrance Into the
straight, but she died away after making a momentary effort,
and Tynedale was left to do battle with Vaaban. Cameron rode
with great determination, bat Parry exereind peat patience,
and the favourite won in almost a park canter. Regalia was a
bad third, and the issue proves, what has long been suspected,
that the mare cannot stay, for although she had the services el
the luckiest jockey, the was never, to adopt a vulgarism of the
ring, "in the bunt." This performance entirely exonerates
Heartaeld, who Is a very clever jockey, from any Imputation
of inelliciency, as her previous form wu in no way improved.
Tynedale ran exceedingly well, and but for the laudable ambition
of his owner to win the Cup, it is more than probable
that the horse could have defeated Comers. However, the
victory of the Duke of Beaufort was well received. and the
Prince was anxious to be one of the first to congratulate the
Master of the Horse on his extraordinary victories. The Marquis
of Hastings, who since the Derby week has had a most extraor-
dinary run of luck laid £IO,OOO to fir,ooo on Vauban. Great
humane welcomed Vauban as he returned to the enclosure, and
he was immediately backed for the Leger, Sto 4 being accepted
about him. The effect of the running during the three days has
been to invest the fit. Leger with additional interest, Vauban,
Van Amburgh, sod D'Eneurnel having won their respective
races In rare style, confuting the argument that the field
for the Derby was an inferior one, and proving it to
have been an excellent one. The remainder of the
races will be found described below. Inspector Tanner had
charge of the ring, and no doubt frightened • lot of the thieving
I fraternity, but still several watch robberies were reported out-
side. The course was kept by Inspector Walker, who had fifty
men of the A division from London. Mr. W. Elliott and Mr. F.
Andrews, jun., had charge of the rings, and of ldently disaharged
their duties. The railway arrangements were excellent and
great praise Is due to Mr. Webley, of the Brighton terminus, far

two favourites were eagerly scanned by their respective admirers.
Vauban, of course, received the llon's share of attention,
but Regalia by her free style of going nod magnificent condition
gave renewed confidence to her friends. After parading In
front of the stand, Mr. If *George conducted the five competitors
to theta ing post, and at once relieved the suspense of the
spectay giving the word to go. lirortiluun, obeying tie
mission Implicitly, to force the pace for the favourite, sent Miss
Havelock to the front, but, although she held a long lead, she
could go no pace, notwithstanding resolute riding. Vauban
lay next, about three-quarters of a length In advance of ne-
dale, clear of whom came Lord Glasgow's colt, Regalia bringing
up the rear. Beyond the fact that bliss Havelock increased her
lead to nearly a hundred yards se they approached the " clump
turn," and that the pace was wretchedly bad, no variation oc-
curred until they appeared in sight from behind the bill, when
the Toxophilite colt was observed to be in the rear of Regalia.
The foot rank had alio undergone some change, Vauban
now being in close attendant on Mira Havelock
and as they ascended the hill, he took up the
running, closely Wended, however, by his stable com-
panion, who gave way as they aline into the straight, drop-
ping a long way to the rear of everything. Daley now called
upon Regalia but after a vain effort, In which she just succeeded
in getting to Tynedale's quarters, she died away to nothing. and
the northern horse was alone left to do battle with the formidable
Vauban. Moat determinedly did Cameron ride to overhaul the
favourite, but all his efforts were in vain, as Parry had but to sit
and hold the Two Thousand Guineas winner. whowon In a canter
by three parts of a length. Regalia, completely pumped out,
was a had third, Lord Glaegow's colt and Mies Havelock being
beaten off.
