Mr. J. Bake, Clerk of the Course

The weather, yesterd

„ was again fine and beautiful, just
sufficiently cool to render it comfortable and animating. The
majority of the races were interesting, being, on the whole, very
well contested. The first race was the Lyme Park Stakes. Two
only came to the post—the filly by Teddington (Maid of Lyme) and
The Welshman. The Maid of Lyme was made a rattling favourite,
and she won in the commonest of canters by two lengths. The
Selling Handicap followed, for which six came to the
post, and the run was won. by Lord Jersey by a
neck. The South Lancashire Tradesmen's Cup was contested
by nine horses, Lady Agnes was more the favourite in this race,
which was a very fine one, from the distance between Turret and
Lord Jersey, Turret winning on the post by a neck. The Manor
Handicap Plate followed, for which seven ran; Spring Jack was
made the favourite, laying 6 to 4 on him, and he won very easily
froin end to end by two lengths. The concluding race, the Scurry
Handicap, for which Northumberland Duchess was made the
favourite, and won by a head. Nye cannot conclude without pay-
ing our tribute of approbation to Mr. Elliot, for his abilities in
