SPORTING NOTES.

our.

This is the gist event kilas fixtures for
the ensfaing meek sal the prughele seem to exhibit a
Woad Mid/aft of °pinks este the Malt. Belts Lift
in favour of The Paom and (Winston, next
CrstouriSli se Saw and Ajax may, posher, be found at the
finish. "Touchstone" of &eke mu* reverses the order
of the two firstaiumel bieres. The Sporting Lift
and Censor," of the Bpsrfsee Gazette, look for the win-
ner in Grinistm or Knight of the Garter, while the Field
thinks the successful candidate will be found in Ajax, and
" The Wizard," of the Sportansau, confidently anticipates
the victory of Orion.
Tux Ere= Cottle:.—The &peeing Gazette sari, in re-
ference to the dispute between Mr. Studd and the direc-
tors of the Grand Stand at Epsom, that the terms
by the former have been declined, and that the laraPh3ait
finally announced their intention of " varying the race-
course to prevent . future uncertainty." The Sperling
Ga:ttle, however, gives "the most unqualified denial" to
the statement that Mr. Studd has determined not to allow
the races to be run over his property.
A LUCKY Com—An old member of Boodles, who died
not long since, left legacies of 1004 each to Mr. George
Fitzroy and Captain H. B. Powell, both of whom are well
known in racing circles. The latter, who had always •
hankering after See-Saw as a f-yr-old, at which age he
backed the horse for the Derb invested his " century,'. as
well as an additional " pony," on See Saw for the Cam-
bridgeshire, mostly at 100 to 1 at the " lista," immediately
the weights came out; but after the horse incurred his 81b
penalty for winning the October Handicap, his opinion of
his "pet's" chance was so tar lessened that he requested
his commissioner in London to hedge his stake. This was
rd

easier said than done, howover, and the result was, Cap-
tain Howell was obliged to " stand the lot," and had the
satisfaction of winning 10,2501. by See Saw's victory!—
Sporting Gaunt.
