YORK AUGUST MEETING.-FRIDAY.

The concluding day of the gathering on the Knavesnifie
was decidedly the most important as affecting the fun"
while the racing was so good and the results so unlocked
for that the day will be remembered in the annals of the
turf. The weather was brilliant, and the company very
large, although it naturally could not compare with the
attendance on the Ebor Hsndicap day, except in the en-
closure, where there appeared but little diminution. To
enable the metropolitan visitors to leave in time to reach,
town by the special train starting at 5.5, the racing com-
menced at twelve o'clock, the last event being set for
half-past four. Though the Aske Produce Stakes resulted
in a walk over, the sport was prolonged by edged heat for
theLnavesmire Stakes, and it will be seen that the run of
resulted in favour of Kidderminster, ridden by Fordham,
thus adding another to his numerous deed-heat victories
of the season. It is a fact well worth mentioning that
Fordham has lost but one of his dead beats this year—
namely, that it Stockbridge, when Athena wee upset by
Leonie. It is unneceaaary to refer to all the races here, as
details will be found below, but a few comment, on
the Great Yorkshire Stakes will no doubt be interesting
to our readers. Singularly this event has for years been
remarkable for its startling surprises, the defeat of Rustle
by Strathoonan, and that of Blair Athol by The 3(lw,
being the most recent. On the present occasion only lee
horses appeared at the post, and one of these, Caucasus,
was started to make the running for Vauban. The prio
mince of Achievement invested the contest with extra.
ordinary interest, and althoughVanban was never forsaken
bhis friends, the support awarded.to Achievement, with
the knowledge that she was so well that Dover believed
her cable of defeating the Danebm7 " crack,"
made the bookmaker' field with wonderful pertinacity.
Before the start several important bets were laid about
both for the St. Leger ; 2000, to • 100 sad • I 800
to 50 were taken that Colonel Pearson's filly won both Iris
Yorkshire Stakes and the St. Leger, in addition to 1,000 to
100 and, ROO to 100 taken three times about her for the
latter event singly. Vauban came in for hie aura of double
event betting, the wagers of 1,000 to 200 and 500 to 1, and
tavernl smaller wrap at the same figure being accepted, as
also 1,000 to 300 that he wan the' Doncaster nice,
Caucasus made the pace a rattler to serve Vauban,
up the running iminediatly the tag fell. As was suitli,
there wasnothing else in it, when they came tower the
finish, but the two cracks, and the wild shouts of the book-
makers as Fordham was seen riding the favourite before the
distance was reached, proclaimed him beaten, which be
eventually was in a common canter by fifteen lengths,Ford-
ham judiciously ceasing to persevere with his horse when
be found his case hopeless. Yorksbiremen generally
seem to revel in the success of a non-favourite, and loud
cheers were given for Chelloner and Achievement as they
returned to the enclosure, where a scene of the wildest
excitement prevailed. A complete revolution of course
took place in the betting quotationt, Vauban being
unceremoniously driven from the front divieien, salmi
Achievement installed the second favourite. This gaily
victory over Vauban naturally affected Hermit's pesitidb,
6 to 4 being loudly offered on the field for the " Sellinger,"
but staunch supporters of the favorite stayed any further
retrogression by offering to accept 7,000 to 4,000, while
another friend of the " recluse " laid 000 to 400 on him
against Achievement, " one to win." Odds of 45 to 20
and 1,000 to 400 were laid on Hermit and Achievement
" coupled," Admiral Roes being one of the layers of these
odds. 300 to 100 was taken about Achievement, and
subsequee; 900 to 400 booked the moment it
was off but at 2 to 1 no investment was
forthcoming. auban was friendless at 10 to 1, bUt 1,000
to 60 would have been taken, and Julius at 20 to 1 to win
several thoesend pounds. Marksmen was introduced at
1,000 to 30, and the backer offering to take LIMO to 20 he
was acoominodoted, the layer remark's( that the two bats
together would be " forty fifties," which was Marksman's
correct quotation. A staunch partisan of Achievement
offered to take 10,000 to 8,000 that she detested Hermit in
the Leger wherever they finished. Taraban was sent to
the right about. 1,000 to 2 being twice laid against him.
htnithoonan easily upset Moulsey in the Gap, and the
maws* of the "roan" was gcestly pleasing to the
"tykes," who appear to idolise the harlequin jacket of
Mr. Watt. The result gave another proof al.the partiality
horses display for certain courses, for Strathoonan here
' defeated Rustic lest year.
