JOB MARSON

has a trio—Nancy, Elizs Middleton, and the High She-
riff. Eliza Middleton will stop at home; the other two
will run. The mare, at 9st llb, though strongly fancied
by the public arid the owner, is not at all attractive to
me. I consider her winning to be pretty nearby an im-
possibility, although I expect that her well-known game
and speedy qualities will enable her to finish in the front
—p-chaps in the third or fourth place—no nearer. The
High Sheriff at sst 61b is more dangerous in my opinion
than Nancy, if in first rate fettle on the day; his weight
is a few pounds too much, or I should take him at
once as a likely winner. He will run very forward.
MURPHY'S

trio, Russborougb, his brother, and the Earl of War-
wick, will he rf-presented, I believe, by the first named;
his weight, however (Bst 71b), will stand somewhat in the
way of victory, yet more apparently impossible things
have taken place in this world than his winning.
E. PARR

has halr-a-dow,n Cup nags in his stable, namely:.—Moun-
tain Deer, Black Doctor, John of Berwick, filly by Pan-
taloon, Richard Primer, and the Old English Oak. Of
course, Mountain Deer ur the Black D ,ctor will be the
representative of the stable; which, I will not attempt to
say; but this much I can state, that neither will win,
JOHN DAY

has a couple only this year—Pi►sford and Hothorpe,
(he latter the representative of the stable, and a v,ity
dangerous one withal. His runnina last, year was, to use
a vulgar. phrase, " all my eye;" on this occasion, if
not the absolute A 1, he will be in close contiguity to
whatever may be the winner. He is in first-rate form
and mischief is meant with him.
W. SCOTT
has Truth and Koh-i-noor in preparation, but which will
run it is impossible to tell; I have but a very small opi-
nion of either for:this bour.

W ADLOW'S
string consists of Alonzo, Candlewick, My Fancy, Lady
Amyott, and Barley Sugar. This is quite out of
Alonzo's distance; Candlewick is too stale; My Fancy
carries sorne.eight pounds too much; Lady Amyott is in
the-same and, .though knowing nothing of Barley
Sugar, am not by any means sweet upon her.
ESKRETT'S
batch, though not very crack, is strong in number, and
consists of Aphrodite, Payment, Harp, Heriot, Ingrati-
tude, and Sarprise. Ido not expect that wo shall be
surprised by seeing a winner spring from this lot; the
top weight, Aphrodite not being quite the thing, and the
rest tbo trashy to accomplish aught.
JOHN SCOTT'S
Backbiter, at 7st 121 b, won't do here Mr. Ferguson.

PECK
stands but little chance this tiese, as he will have only a
nibble with La Fiancie, Cossack having been scratched
yesterday.

TOM DAWSON'S
lot comprises Mark Tapley, Raby, Consolation, Cyclops,
Stilton, Galvanism, and Burndale. It is expected that
Stilton will be the only runner, and at sst 8!b, looking
at his performance at Epsom, his chance would seem
to be a very good one; but when it is taken into con-
sideration of what little service his raking stride will be
to him on the round-about course of the Roodee, I am
inclined to give the preference to one of his small com-
pact ri►als, who are sure to be more at home on a course
of this nature than a long-strided animal; but as the
stable are remarkably confident of pulling through with
him, and as he will probably finish forward, I should
advise his being held harmless.
DILLY'S

hopes are centered in Scarecrow, Ariosto being a non-
starter. The former at 4st 71b is a remarkably dan-
gerous looking animal, and, in my opinion, if up to the
mark on the day, which he is said not to be now, will
probably polish off most of his juvenile rivals.
