LICHFIELD SUMMER MEETING. —THURSDAY.
Lichfield kept up the charter for wet weather to-day,
rain falling with but slight intermission throughout the
afternoon. but the majority of the visitors were fully
prepared for it, and the enclosure was a forest of umbrellas.
The attendance was not numerous either within or out-
side the enclosure, but the leading patrons of the turf who
had " Assisted " at Derby, honoured Mr. Sheldon 's gather-
ing with their presence, and there being plenty of both
bookmakers and backers present, the various events de.
aided between two and five o'clock produced some lively
ne:titer, more than one favourite being bowled over.
first race—the Hastings Plate—Lady Hester had a
sorrow squeak, and bad not the Squire stumbled, it is
doubtful whether she would have won. Cation—a 6to 1
chance, defeated the filly by Dirdhill—The Roe
by a short head, just getting up in the last
stride. The rate was a close one between the
three placed, the third, Weather Isle, only being defeated
• neck from the favourite. Lord Honahl was made the
favourite for the Beaudesert Welter Cup, but be has had
too much of it lately, and sustained an easy defeat from
Black Prince and King's Cross. Odds were laid on the
Adamant filly for the City Stakes, but Verity, left at the
it for a race the previous day at Derby, son in a canter.
The remainder of the sport requires no comment.
