WARWICK SEPTEMBER RACES.—Texsoax.
The near approach of the St. Leger invests the Warwick
Wseeting with much greater importance than even the
lengthy programme issued by Mr. Merry could command,
as the market movements on the great Doncaster race are
watched with the keenest interest, many important trans-
actions having been enacted at Warwick in past years. (In
Mond .y the usual quiet of Warwick was disturbed by the
mutant arrival of racing visitors and horses, and the fine
weather gave every promise of an extraordinarily successful
gathering. Derieg the night, however, a change took
place, and early on Tuesday morning a violent thunder-
storm broke ova r the town, rain falling heavily for several
Lours. There was one great ailvantage, however, in the
watery visitation, as it made the course admirable going
instead of being as hard KM a turnpike road, as it was from
the effect of the late scorching weather. Towards noon an
improvement in the weather indicated a fine afternoon, but
at the close a drenching downfall drove every one to shelter.
The programme of the day's racing was an interesting one,
including as it did the names of several first-class horses,
and promising interesting contests. The opening event—
the Woodoote Nursery—bore out the protium, Lily only
just managing to defeat Retty by a neck. Mr. Heathcote
gave a foretaste of his after-success by winning the Avon
Stakes with Brown 'pommy, while the Shorts Handicap
proved a great surprise by the victory of the Catherine
Hayes filly, a complete outsider. The principal event of
the day, the Leamington Stakes, tuned out to be the
good thing it looked for &rowing, who won in a canter
from Pintail, to whom she was giving nearly two stone.
And although the result was some compensation to " the
Squire " for the vexatious defeat of his mare on the Ebor
Handicap, it at the same time afforded ineontestible evi-
dence of a sheer throwing away of a race. The remaining
events do not call for special remark. In the course of
the afternoon some speculation took place on the St.
Leger. But there was very little actual business trans-
acted. The positions of the two favourites remained un-
changed, and there was no other movement among the
subordinates to alter the complexion of things.

and won cleverly by a neck. The favourite, passing the
