BROMLEY RACES. -TIMRSDAY.

This interesting suburban meeting, the programme of
which comprised both flat and steeplechase races, was
biaugurated to-day over the usual course (Mr. Pawleys
farm), a short distance from Bickley. The weather was
very fine, and in point of attendance the meeting suffered
very little from the fact of its clashing with the opening
clay of the Bedford ri un iwt. since the last anniversary
the course has been considerably enlarged and improved,
anti the abrupt turns done away with. Five races—two
on the flat and three steeplechases—were set down on the
card for decision, but in consequence of a tiresome delay
tem hour and forty-five minutes) at the post for the Brom-
ley Plate, the card was nut gut through, one race—the
Trial Steeplechase—standing over for decision to-morrow.
The fields were pretty strong, but the racing calls for no
comment. No transactions took place upon the Cesare-
witch or Cambridgeshire, end the general subject of con-
venation was the lamentable death of Harry Grimahaw.
