LIVERPOOL RACES—THURSDAY.
The attendance this afternoon was even more limited
thin yesterday, despite the brilliant weather, which might
be supposed to have an influence in drawing people to Ain-

tree. But a blight seems to have fallen on the July meeting

beiond the influences of weather to effect, and unless some-
h done we shall have to chronicle a still greater deca-
dence.ing l3

ressor, a fine looking son of Newminster, car-
ried
t
~q 2 Stakes from only two opponents, and
Hep
of tike Plating lot against him in the han-
e offe r
disposed the Cra

dicap with great ease.
There was a good race for the Molyneux Cup between
Fantail and Windham, the mare lading the whole way
until at the half distance she was headed by Windham, who
had been lying off throughout, and who woti fit last cleverly

by a neck. Fantail was a very warm favourite, while the
winner was at 8 to 1, so this was a great turn up for the

fielders.
Universal satisfaction was expressed at the withdrawal
by Admiral Rous and Lord Stamford of the charges made
by them against Lord Bateman, arising out of the race for
the County Stakes at Worcester. In justice to the Earl of
Stamford, we hays authority for stating that he signed the
first letter to Lord Bateman under an entire ignorance of

the real facts of the case.

added for 2-yr-olds ; colts, Bst 10ib ; fillies and geldings,

tage, at, won by a length, a length and a half between the

to 1 agst Moulsey, and 3to 1 each agst Windham and
Stanton.
The favourite, with a slight lead of Stanton, made the
running, closely followed by the The Clown and Wind-
ham, Moulsey, who was left considerably in their rear, at
the start acting as whipper-in. With little or no material
change they ran in these positions to the mile post where
the leading horses were joined by Lord Bateman's colt—
but in a stride or two after Windham was pulled
bottom,
where and went on in waiting to halfway in the
where Stanton compounded, when Cranshaw brought
his horse to the front and followed Fantail into the dis-
tance, where he headed the latter and won a finely con-
tested race by a head ; the favourite heading The Clown
by four lengths, a similar distance separating the third and
fourth.

Dermot Asthore, in company with Sluggard and Cut-
away, made play to the turn, when the Sluggard ran out,
leaving the race with the two, who were joined half way up
by Alice Leigh. The three ran together to the enclosure,
when the favourite came out and appeared to be winning to
nothing, but was beat cleverly by a length, a like distance
between second and third.
After the race Clarkson, the rider of Cutaway, was sum-
maned to appear before the Earl of Stamford and Captain
White, who acted for the stewards, the general impression
being that the jockey had prevented Cutaway from win-
ning. Ultimately, Clarkson was suspended from riding
again during the meeting, with an intimation that the case
would be brought under the notice of the Jockey Club.
