THE FIELDS FOR TO. MORROW'S RACES AT
NEWMARKET,&c.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

'6l)---Yeaterday'at Acta awe on the w hole, of a very
uninteiesting character, the principal feat ' being -
victory of Harbinger over Rolando in the race for the
50 Sm. Stakes. The winner never gave his opponent
the shadow of a chance, and won very easily by two
lengths. This race, according to the reckoning of the
backers of the Goodwood stable, was considered a har-
binger of their success in the Guineas with Homebrewed,
who was forthwith elevated to the premiership, at 5 to 2.
The 501. Plate was won in such a very ridiculous
manner by Exeter, the stable companion of Maidstone,
that the latter immediately received promotion in the
Guineas' betting, from no price at all to 7 to 1, taken
freely.
In the matches, Nabob gave away the great difference
of weight between him and his beaten antagonist Hugo,
without difficulty, as he won very easily.
The other match, between Palma filly and Fent-
morz, was won by the former; as Robinson, on Lord
Clifden's horse, almost immediately atter starting met
with a severe accident, through the horse swerving and
the stirrup leather giving way, by which his thigh and
collar-bone were broken, and it is supposed that one or
two of the ribs are fractured. This mount of Robin-
son's, in all human probability, was his lest, and closed
as brilliant a career as jockey ever had.
To-morrow's list is on paper the strongest of the
week, bat, as six are skeleton stakes, it is difficult to tell
bow many will fill, as only one oat of four attained that
end yesterday. The fields for the others are as follow:
50 Soya. Stakes. D. M.—Lord Enfield's Poodle,
Bst 41b; Lord Exeter's Lens, Sat 41b; Mr. Payne's
Glenluce, Bst 31b (d).
50 Sova. Stakes, A.F.—Mr. Greville's Frantic, Bst 31b;
Mr. Hughes's Fonthill, Bst 71b, and perhaps one of Ge-
neral Anson's.

50 Soya. Stakes, D.M.—Duko of Richmond's Har-
binger, Lord Exeter's Stockwell, Mr. Barnes's Qaeen
Guinever (d),
The first of these sweepstakes I consider to be a
certainty for POODLE, Glenluce being the only opponent
that he will have that possesses a chance.
The second sweepstakes, I imagine. will be carried off
by FRANTIC; and the third by HARBINGER.
For the 1,000 Guineas, on the following day, it is not
improbable, as Bay Rosalind is not quite the thing,
being rather stout and doing very little work, and Glen-
luce on the queer list, that the best of Mr. Magenta's will
turn out to be the winner. Lady Harriet I have heard
nothing about, or I should have fancied her. lam in-
clined to think that Caloric is the best of lair. Magenis's
couple.
The betting last night and this morning has been
brisker than on any previous occasion this year. The
following are the latest prices:-300 Soya. Stakes-2 to
lon Barcelona. 2,000 Guineas-2 to 1 each agat Filius

to the turn of the land, where it was taken up by Agis,
who went on with it to the Duke's Stand; Exeter and
Nutshell here went in front, the former taking the lead
two distances from home, and winning by six lengths.
Time, 5 win. 59 sees.
The poverty—a consequence of the state of the ground
—renders it almost unnecessary to say that the heath
was thinly attended.
