LIVIRPOOL AUTUMN MEETING.—FRIDAY.
THE CUP DAY.
Though rain fell somewhat heavily during Thursday
night, • pest improvement took pleas in the weather this
awning. The atmosphere was quite warm, and altoge-
ther the day was very enjoyable. The Cup may be said
to have been the only feature of the day, for although the
toad number at rams were est for decision all the interest
wee centred in that event. The attendance was far in ex-
ams of any of the previous days. Speculation on the great
see of the day commenced early, the most notable
bring the decline of Adam to 10 to 1 and Helen
lietwg to & On the field 6 to 1 was repeatedly
eared. Chepstow declined slightly, but Fri-
a', was made a better favourite, and Salpinetes
was also in good odour. Beeswing was beaked
awn to 25 to L Twenty were coloured for the Cup, but
at these Dubietr, Min Harriette, and Jollity did not go to
the post. Sundedah, who was not coloured, figured among
die starters. By a somewhat singular coincidence, the
add last per also numbered 18 runners. The race was a
vogy fast run one, and terminated in the complete over-
throw of the favourites, and the victory of Moseying by
the aid of the ppooppular light weight Kenyon. The repre-
sestatives of WadloaTs stable, Moakley and Bertha, the
hitter ridden by Jemmy Grinishaw, were second and third,
while Helen wee fourth. The " pots" were out of it at the
distance, Chepstow and Special being among the first
}erase beaten, but to this point the favourites had been
pretty forward. The victory of the Surrey squire was well
Peeled by the ring and the spectators generally, and
• who rode with his usual judgment and ability,
nee loudly cheered on returning to weigh in. Details of
the day's racing are appended.

The latter, in one of the breaks away, bolted, and ran to
the commencement of the enclosure before he could be
stepped. A good start was effected, the Itch colt and
Ihmerelda being slightly in advance of Master Robert,
Kerry Heart, and King Charles, and they ran thus to the
tern into the straight, where the favourite took up the
planing, end, although challenged at the distance by Ada,
he came away and won in a canter by two lengths. A
similar distinct.° separated Ada and Verity, a head in the

Ric in the oentre of the course being slightly in ad-
vance of the remainder. After going about half the dis-
tances, Queen of Trumps got her bead in front, and, not-

The following also ran :—Lozenge. Flldny, falpinctes, Treasure
Trove, Brick, Mast Lynne, Red Earl, Aetna, The Special, Lady
Vane, Nn, Helen, Sportsman, Sundeelah, and Chepstow.
Betting : 5 to 1 agst Friday, 11 to 2 agat The Special, R to
l each apt Aetna and Nu, 10 to 1 apt Chepstow, 15 to 1
apt Helen, 16 to 1 each agst Beeserng, Salpinctes, and

1 each apt Treasure Trove and Red Earl, 33 to 1 agst
Moulsey, 40 to 1 Sportsman, and 50 to 1 apt Lozenge.
The preliminary canters of the competitors were watched
with great eagerness, the favourites naturally being most
looked after, and, what is a somewhat unusual circum-
stance, all persons were satisfied with the appearance of
the various fancies. Chepstow was perhaps the least
Eked of anything, but no home in the world
could be brought out in finer condition, but he
is • mean looking animal. Muulsey certainly
galloped and looked as well as anything, and
his magnificent appearance gained him many friends
at the last moment. Precisely at the time for
which the race was set-2.15, Mr. M'George attempted to
despatch the com petitors, but several displaying over anxiety
to get away frustrated his endeavour., and a delay of
nearly ten minutes occurred. Eventually an excellent
start was effected, but Friday soon showed in advance,
having a clear lead before 50 yards bad been traversed, of
Special, Brick, Treasure Trove, and East Lynne, who were
closely followed by Nu, Chepstow, and Kilpinctes, these
tieing in advance of a compact cluster of horses, the most
prominent of whom were Actea, Beeswing, Sandal, and
Moulsey, the rear division consisting of Sundeelah,
Lozenge, and Lady Vane. The only noteworthy
variations that occurred as they ran along the far side of
the course, were the advance of Actaa to a prominent place
is front and the retirement of Helen to an equally &Ain-
pishable position in the extreme rear. The front divi-
mon took closer order as they approached the Canal turn,
where the Special ran wide, attempting to bolt, and almost
overpowering }fibber& who, however, fortunately soon
cot him Weight. This confrdernps caused some alteration
IS the ruck, as some of the boric, followed the Special's
example ; and almost immediately Beeawing, Moulsey,
and Sandal showed prominently in the van. Before reach-
Jag the turn into the straight Friday gave way, and San-
dal on the inside, as they rounded the turn, took up the
manning, closely followed by Beeawing, the Special in the
centre of the course, and Moulsey wide on
the extreme right, slightly in their rear fol-
lowing Aotea, Helen, and Salvinctea, who were all
going remarkably well. The notorious Chepstow, who had
sever been prominent, was observed swerving all over the
course, in the rear, and loud shouts were Praised by the
members of the ring at the disgraceful exhibition of this
impostor and fitting brother to Chattanooga. Special was
the first to give way of the leaders, about a quarter of a
mile from home, and Aetna and Salpinctea were in a few
strides further disposed, off, the issue being left to the
font placed. Sandal maintained the lead to the distance,
where Bemiring headed her, and notwithstanding the
game struggle of Lord Wilton's mare, and the tremendous
efforts of Moulsey, Mr. Heathcote'a filly won easily by a
length from Moulsey, who finished a like distance in ad-
vance of Sandal, three lengths from whom came Helen.
Actaos, close up, was fifth, Salpinctes sixth, Special
seventh, East Lynne eighth, and Sundeelah next. Nu,
Chepstow, Brick, and Friday headed the others, who were
whipped in by Treasure Trove and Red Earl.
