say ; and at first many personsvwere disposed to find
fault with
_them, some takitig exception to the
seeming partiality bestowed upon Messrs. Payne
and Greville's " lot," others pretending to' indi-
cate discrepancies with reference to certain animals.
Fault finding and grumbling is the, characteristic
of Englishmen, and turfites seem to think that the ruling
maxim by which their affairs are regulated is " do one
another." This fancy renders them frequently dissatisfied
without a cause. The two Autumn Handicaps under
notice are certainly cred:table specimens of the art ; they
are framed by the stewards of the Jockey Club, who, al-
though they may make erroneous calculations, are never
suspected of premeditated and wilful partiality. For the
Cesarewitch, Elvetston, weighted at sst. 51b., is an ice.
rnense favourite. He belongs to John Scott's stable,
and has it is said been specially reserved fur this race.
S-ythian is much fancied and may occupy a prominent
position in the betting, but I am in expectation of
seeing his owner's interest more worthily repre-
sented by Balrownie. Mortimer (by Alarm) who •
was backed somewhat heavily prior to the publication
of the weights, is in at Est. 61b. ; and, if report be true,
he may he beard of to advantage. Mr. Tom Parr wills
doubtiess have a favourite--whether Robgill or Sancebox,
however, will be the intended animal I am not yet able
to determine. After the announcement of the accept-
ances I shall take an early opportunity of discussing the
comparative chances for both Cambridgeshire and C,
witch. -
Expectations of the WaWick Meeting are always in
dulged with peculiar satisfaction. The programme in
variably promises many "good things" for the backers
of horses, whilst book-makers do not always find their
interest neglected. Mr. Merry has as usual ", cooked"
several nice light and flattering handicap,, and this very
circumstance renders it puzzling, unless one is let into
the secret, to select the probable winners. No com-
plaints are likely to be heard relative to a scarcity of
sport, for the racing will be ample enough.
Master Horton, 4 yrs, 6st 131 b, and Flageolet, 3 yrs,
Gst 12ib, certainly are entitled to consideration for the
Shorts Handicap, and, should they start, he will be a
bold man who " stands against them."
So much mystery and uncertainty surrounds the.pro-
bable starters for the Leamington Stakes that I scarcely
know where to look for the winner. The betting would
indicate that neither Little Harry nor Mishap will go to
the post, so it would be merely a waste of time to dis-
cuss their chances. King of Trumps, with his 51bs. extra,
has only i'st. 12Ibs. to carry, and, despite the prevalent'
opinion that he cannot stay, I shalt expect to see him
in the first flight of competitors at the finish if
too much use be not made of him early in the race.
Goorkah has been backed, but whether he will be
"wanted" or not it is impossible to determine. The
same remark applies to Indian Warrior, who shall cer-
tainly not be slighted by me should he put in an appear-
ance. I should be inclined to regard Pantomime with
unqualified partiality if be belonged to any one else be-
sides Mr. Magehms. Sultan is likely to represent the
Woodyates stable, and his running for the Goodwood
Stakes proved that he possessed much racing merit.
The Chicken was introduced with some force into the
betting on Saturday, and lie may prove "cock of the
walk" for this event. Unless Shoreham's running at
Liverpool was a "mistake," he can have only a remote
chance. Many people believe that it was a mistake ;
and, fancying that his party have had their
hopes of carrying off the Cesarewitch crushed by
weight, they expect Shoreham to come off with
flying colours to-morrow. Imogene is worthy of consi-
deration, for proofs have been afforded that she can both
gallop and stay. Could I calculate with certainty upon
a start I should select Pantomime to do the trick, but
doubts'which at present exist in my mind induce me to
place faith in the pretensions of Sultan and Shoreham.
Should an outsider, however, be destined to pull through
King of Trumps may, after all, be the card to win with.
At any late I shall reserve him for a " cock boat."
Notwithstanding Flyaway's recent queer running I
shall rely upon her ability to win the Castle Park Stakes.
Her most dangerous opponent will be The British
Remedy.

For the Borough Handicap I shall select Diego and
Mr. Huffain.

If Wild Dayrell starts for the Warwick Cup, there
will be few people to " stand the field." In his absence
I shall place confidence in Rataplan, despite hl3 Egham
performance. The Avon Stakes I assign to Bonner and
Buxom.

For the Handicap Plate I shall select Miss Hatch and
Conspiracy. Should Mr. Sykes start for the County
Plate I shall be inclined to couple him with King of
Trumps to represent my interest. In his absence, how-
ever, I shall substitute Speed the Plough. For the
Welter Cup my fancy points to Caliph and Master
Horton. lanthe, Orson, and Jenny Wren shall do

battle for me for the Town Plate.
