TO TEI ZDTTOZ OF 713 EXPOISS.

Sia,—Lupallus gave us another testa of hie quality
at Doncaster, where he cut down his opponents with aHD
penalty in such a manner that, =km checked very aeon la
his ektorione career, he will do am mace toward, spoiling"
the Derby betting of 1860 as it was thought North Lincoln
would have doze had he been engaged for the Bleg Ribead
°tithe present year. He did not pay a visit to Salisbury,
there being a clear 1,000!. to be won at Bath, Übe is capable
of 'turret off the Biennial and Weston Stakes, and Mr. Parr
L acting wisely in not giving him too much to do, for he le a
Derby horse all over. The meetings at Demister and
Salisbury were in every way worthy of their promoters, and I
myself may claim some credit for the selections made for the
different °wenn, two winners at Doncaster, and four
at Salisbury, being a pretty good share, out of the ele-
ven eveuts touched upon ; and bad Laraine omitted
at the latter meeting there isno doubt that I should hushed to
claim for the two events in which bowman.' also. Not so
aquas au done there is osaneakawith the Woodyeetee dia4,
DeneberYperby racks es we Might have expected, themtly
movement worthy of mention being the disposition to pepper
Electric), who le almost • native of the county. Merryman
has already been sent to the rightabont, but hie stable cora-
pinkie, the (Hedges fit, has many friends, and it is not at
all improbable that he will take his place to the market, if
I not in the race. I most not, however, anticipate the doings
at Bath oo Tuesday and Wednesday next, where it Is pro-
bable many changes will take piece ; business is to ana-
lyse the programme eel forth by Mr. Reynolds for the two
days sport, ten of the Items comprised therein being already
complete. Hall-a-doyen of thole are beadiceps, three being
set for each of the two days !• and neatly the same lot of
animals being engaged in etch, the dtEcnitiee in the way of
• fair discussion of them are no ordinary ogee.
Tut:,/AT.-The Lansdowne Trial Handicap has Schism
engaged with but llb more than she won with at Salisbury—
Sot bib; and as she there beat Birmingham, Get, in •
common canter, the Slb better terms on which
the letter meats her has should not turn the tables. Cha-
cline, 3 ra, Est 71b, ran remarkably well in the City and
Suburban Handicap, and he is the meet likely candidate to
upset Schism. The latter is merged in the Bath Handicap
also, and it is imposdble to tell yet which her party will pre-
fer sending her for; but Fadladeen, 4 re, Tat sad Or-
leans,
_3 yrs, bet 101 b, will give YAM trouble to bee in this
event, and the first mentioned having no other engagement
at the meeting, he is the moat likely starter and winner out
of the trio. The Seventh Biennial Stake., for 3-yr olds, one
mile, will afford a good Derby trial of the lot that contend
for them ' • but we are not likely to see more than Highway-
man, Sir Hercules, Independence, Trumpeter, and Cynic=
cute the beta; as Scent may be in marvel°, the Oeks ; and
from what Trumpeter showed us at Newmarket
he ought to beat his opponents in her absence.
The Eighth Biennial Stakes, for 2-r olds, half
a mils. has but two reepectable pabfio performers
engaged in Lupines, Set bib, and the Termagant colt,
gat 71b. the 810 difference in the weights being just sufficient
to render their meeting exciting, for Lord Stamford'e colt has
considerably improved since Thonnanby gave him 31b and •
good beating at Chester, and it will give Lapullus some
trouble to beat him so far, although he settled Thormanby's
pretensions at Epsom. It will be strange if John Hey does
n tt have • cut at Lopullus. especially as acme of his eeldu-
lustiness have 31b allowed them, and the Brother to Went-
worth is so highly thought of; J. Scott may alto bring
something to take his measure, the colt by Flying Dutchman
—Canezou and the Leprechaun being pretblaesvily en-
gaged ; and W. Day should not be afraid to oat King-
fisher, if he is such a wonder as weaned ; Ben the Mon-
et-Amp, and Reeds ate ale t reputed flyers." Were but
a moiety of these to put in an appearance the race would be
watcted with some interest; but I cenuot believe Lu-
minus will lower his colour' to many this season over half-a-
mile, and he is well worth standing spinet all comers. The
Free Handicap winner her to be sold for 60 move., U die
mended, and If the owner of Yorkshire Miss, 3 3 m,fet 216,
is deposed to part with her for that figure, she may maws-
prom him for the lasses sustained through her at Salisbury.
The County Members Piste has • downright bad lot handi •
capped, Olympias, 3 yrs, bet 71b, hiving made the pace good
enough In the Chewer Cap to be entitled to favourable con-
sideration over this mile Rod • half.
Weneese•Y.—ln the Weston Stakes we have Emily,
Bst 71b; Oxford, Bst 10lb ; Predictor. fist 10lb ; Lamellae
Sot lib :erred the Termag ins ooN fat lltb, se the but of thi
mblie reformers ; tine eases lir. s voided

81b, end 10Ib. Here Is a chance o lowering hie colours,
which is sure to be taken advantage of ; but extra weight
will not stop him so easily as it would some horses, and he
Will not Sad tee a draftee melees something upsets him ea
Tuesday. The Hylton Park Handler p will be governed by
the result of the County Members -Plate, the winner of
which will only have to beat Yellow Rose, 3 yrs, get, to
look like carrying off this stake also. The Aristocratic
Handicap is out of my latitude, depending as it
does so much on the riders, sad we shall not
even know the weights each competitor carries until
the numbers are displayed on the telegraph. The Somer.
satehire Stakes, two miles has not a very brilliant lot en-
gaged: Black Tommy, e yrs, Bst 121 h; The Belle, 4 yr.,
Est Illb ; Hydroroel, 4 yrs, Set 91b; Schism, 3 re, BR
Orleans, 3 yre, Est 1010 ; sod Birmingham, 3 yrs,
get 61b, beteg all 1 can see with • chines, unless the
reaming of Primer Royal, 4 yrs, Set 1016, at Don-
caster, were a mistake. Birmingham is meeting Bohlen ca
9lb better terms than at Salisbury, which ought to
them newer together; but Orleans may prove the bell
the young one', his Linooln running beteg apparently for-
gotten by his pasty, The have made him the fuze*. horn
It appears singular that the Belle, alter her wry victory at
Cheater on the first day, was not shined for the Cap, and If
it should heppen that she ;has been kept for this, the
favourites must been the look out she and.Hydromel being
the most formidable opponents I can find to Then—
am, ho., METEOR.
