Sit,—We New quite enough of the 2-yr-olds at
Newmarket to be amerced that such tremendous flyers as
Lupellus, Meinatons, and Therroartby, have something to
do to eclipse the pert nuance of Buccaneer in the July Stakes,
which la uudoabtedly A 1 up to the present time, for both
Nicholas and Blue Ruin had done ell that was asked of them
at home, and although they raced home for second money,
the Buccaneer won with a stone In hand. Thessalia; it is
but fair to state, met with an accident on his road from En•
villa to Newmarket that rendered him hors de combat the
van in which he wasconveyed having come into collision
with as arab of • sealing bridge, and one of
his lags wee severely lacerated. Loeser sum see •
better day, although it is said there is very little
difference between him and Umpire, who, having run •
coward, was bowled over by the moderate Twang in
his meta. Buccaneer has only two more engagements this
mere, pt, se the match between him and Apollo has been
declaredcA by consent since his victory, it is probable he will
not show for either, but be reserved for the more valuable
prises of 1660, be being engaged in the Biennial at the New-
market Craven Meeting, the Two Thousand Guineas at the
First Spring Meeting, the Derby, the Drawing Room Stake*
as Goodwood, and the Doecestar St. Logic. Sur a horse is
sot era every reson, and the owner of his superior le not
bkely ever to want the "filthy lucre" in vain. Trovatore's
erbibitiou in the Chreterfield Stakes makes him out bat little
more then moderate over a short course; but • scope of
ground will find him more at home, and be is pretty certain
one day to have hie revenge of High There, who is not the
gamest animal in the world, having always succumbed when
coil dm' in hie previous encounters. Had Modems Eglan-
tine got off, bar great turn of speed would ban put him in
trouble before they had gone mossy yards, as she
has even improv-d on her Epsom form, and there
is no gaming what the result might then have been.
At Abingdon we have a greatly improved two day.' pro.
gramme, commencing on Tueeday; but the Berkshire Stakes
has a very poor acceptance, Yellow Rose, 8 y ass, fist 910,
being the best on paper over the distance, for Betibury, 4 yrs,
Tat 131 b, is not partial to two miles. The Two•yeanold
Stakes must surely go to Cheesier. after Rattlebonde
moderate Sertmence at Worcester; end Pescatore, Tat 81b,
has only same weight, to beat in the Nunery. A.
acceptance to be declared for the Omen Free Handicap,
and as several of those engaged in the hiszcham Park and
Culham Stakes have other and more Important matters on
hand I can only deal with the Abingdon Stakes out of
Wednesday's list, Infanta, White Rose, and Agra being the
order In which the three beet performers in the race may pre-
sent themselves to the judge's notice.
Liverpool is more fortunate than many other first-clue
July meetings, there being only the lead day at Ablngion
to clash with it, and that will scarcely affect tee attendance
of either biped or quadruped one per cent. The programme
embraces hada dozen items each for Wednesday and Thurs-
day, and seven for Friday, a majority of which have already
clear ; and find on the Rat is the Crorteth Handicap, six
furlongs, wherein the names of Daniel, 3 yrs, fret 111 b, and
Botany, 4 yre, 7et 616, are to be found, and as both are
partial to the distance, their recent performances eathle them
to every respect. The mare, however, is in the Beattuck
Testimonial Handicap, with but 7et, end unless the stable
or trust tie the Coroner, 3 yre, sst slb, she might possibly
be essayed for the more valuable prize. Still her rear of
bowling over Tuestell Maid, 4 yrs, 7st 121 b, is not very
promimsg, and the latter has only the yonog one end Des
Chiles, 4 pro, est, to fear. T. Dawson 's tern is de...ideal,
the beet looking to the Naivety Plate, for although Mime
Hateley's weight has been raised to 7st 21b in one Trice
of her recent triumph, there is Annie. Oat 61b, to fell back
upon, the severe race she ran at Cathode with Rachel at only
171 b for the year rendering her worthy of all confidence in
this company. The Merry Stakes la aired teemed to •
question of Emily stetting, as the Grand Muter will
not travel from Milton fir such • prize, after miming
so many that were more valuable, and all the other wieners
in the race but Mantes e have to meet her on equal terms.
The Liverpool Cup, two toffee, does not come on the try 4
until the second day, end it is no, improbable that the tint
day's performances will effect it. Thirty-one originally ac-
cepted, but the striking out of Simpletoo, Jordan, Meadow-
da'e, and Beethoven has coneitierably reduced the number,
✓id the twenty-seven animals on paper only represent fifteen
stables, who may not all send one to the per. All that have
been seriously talked of se yet is the market ere Wrestler,
Herne, blaster Bagot, Roy.' Sovereign, Ancient Briton,
Grand Secret, Defender, Newcastle, Paul, Urethan, and
Daniel, and the five first-mentioned are so easily put together
that their parties ought not to make very glaring mistakes,

Royal Sovereign at even weights in the Chaster Cup, best
