ABINGDON RACES.-FRIDAY.

As we anticipated, the sport on the concluding day of
this meeting was greatly superior to that of Thursday, the
fields generally heirs g large and the racing good. The
weather was brilliantly fine, although the morning pre-
saged a stormy day, and the company was equally as large
and influential so on the opening day. Racing commenced
et one o'clock with the Stand Plate, and concluded at half.
past four with the Culham Stakes, and notwithstanding
the large fields excellent time was kept, thanks to the
efficient management of the executive. Fill details of the
running are appended :

filly. As usual, Queen of Trumps caused a delay at the
post by her fractiousness, but when the flag fell
Zeta and the Texan. filly, tide by side, made
play, Queen of Trumps and Dick Turpin being most
prominent of the others. In this order they ran to the
enclosure. while Blordan, on the Texans filly, challenged

very cleverly by a neck. A similar distance in rear of the

finished in ad...nce of the others, widely scattered.

Betting at the close : 6to 4 on Redivirtut, 5 to 1 egst

the field of horses in charge, he succeeded in despatching
them on very even terms. Belle &nesse was the first to
show in advance, followed by Herennianus, Redivivus,
Triana, and The ariner, and they ran thus to the turn,
where Rene Sausage was beaten, and Lord Westmorland's
colt lost his place by slipping, but Kenyon soon righted
him, and went on in pursuit of the favourite and Trier's,
who were now in front. The finish was very unint :rest-
ing, as Redivivus won in a canter by two lengths from
Triana, who was three lengths in advance of Herenuienue
