sessed of considerable speedy powers, beatin, WaB lx)s-
that lass filly of Mr. Meiklam's, Evadne— as
he did
others, including ,The Italian, Maid of Team acial ten
and Pelopidas. This race of The Cutler it must be tre.:-' membered was only for a mile, and at that distance ;
moderate weight, he will be found very dangerous daring
the present year.
The fact of Azeth being dead amiss did not reach ime
in sufficient time to enable me to give it publicity so as
to prevent money being thrown away on his chance for
the Second Triennial Produce Stakes, or the loss of
many p.p. bets about him would not have occurred. If
he had been in anything like form, it is perfectly clear to
any one that the Miss Whip colt would have stood no
earthly chance of defeating him; as it was, Lord Glas-
gow's colt quietly walked over.
That clever filly of Mr. Bell's, by lago out of Miss
Eliza, 'yclept Ann Eliza, managed to beat Osborne's
Lambton very cleverly by a neck for the Tyro Stakes;
Charming Woman finishing a bad third. Both Ann
Eliza and Lambton are useful animals in a second-rate
field, but would have very little chance if pitted against
any first-rate class two years old.
Happy Joe somewhat astonished his friends and the
public by winning the Trial Stakes cleverly from Sham-
rock, Brawn, and five others, including Agnes Wickfield
and England's Glory. This performance of Happy Joe's,
who previous to the race was valued at 50 pounds ornnder,
found him a new proprietor at 200 sovs. Here it must
be also borne in mind that this victory was obtained
over the T. Y. C., and that any distance exceeding that
would be completely against the horse, as his qualities
are those of speed for a short distance, but without the
power of staying.
The Produce Stakes on Wednesday were won some-
what unexpectedly, and yet very easily, by Sir C.
Monck's colt by Touchstone out of Garland, who beat
the favourite. Lord Fauconberg, the son of Birdcatcher,
and Alice Hawthorn, without any difficulty by two
lengths.
The Northumberland Plate resulted, as I and every-
body else expected, in favour of Mr. Meiklam's
slashing colt Stilton, who won without any difficulty
under the pilotage cf Aldcroft by half a length;
Colsterdale, giving only four pounds for the veer tc
the victor, being second, Cossack a bad third, Snowdrop
fourth. Caracara fifth, the gelding by Morgan Rattler
sixth, Stafford seventh, and Nee-sham, who finished his
racing career by breaking down, last. The race was
run at a fair pace from end to end, and well tests the
merits of Stilton as a race•horse. The immediate con-
sequence of his victory was of course his elevation to the
rank of first favourite for the Goodwood Cup, for which
he stands a capital chance, and not more than 3 to 1 is
obtainable about his winning it. This victory, however,
entirely spoils his chance for any of the great handicaps
of the present year, for ho is sure to be dosed with a stiff
weight—too stiff to win, I calculate.
Mr. Meiklam's rattling filly Evadne, after carrying
6st 61b, and running second to The Cutler at 7st slb
for the Members' Plate on Monday, comes out on the
following day with Est I llb up, and beats the Knight
of the Garter, receiving but 10Ih for the year, for the
Free Handicap, by a head, after a beautiful race, walking
over the same day for the third Triennial Produce Stakes,
Pelopidas being afraid to meet her; and yesterday
finishing her three days' performances by defeating
that wonder of other days, Nancy, rather easily than
otherwise, by three parts of a length. These per-
formances are very superior, and prove that getting a
distance and speed are qualities she is not deficient in;
her victories this week having been over the mile, three
quarters of a mile, and two mile courses. She must no
be forgotten.

It i; an old saying, that " it never rains hut it pours,"
for Dawson, after having swept the Northumberland
Plate Free Handicap, Third Triennial, and Gold Cup,
brings out his Chief Justice, who is evidently much im-
proved since last year, and wins her Majesty's Plato
very easily with him from the Marinella colt, Presto, and
four others, on the Wednesday; and the Corporation
Plate, with Sit 71b up, beating a good field yesterday.
Such luck as this is not often seen. The greater part
of the good things this year seem destined to find their
way into the northern stables.

Sir Charles Monck's Brother to Vanguard, after beat-
ing Lord Fauconberg on Wednesday, was again victo-
rious yesterday in the race for the Grand Stand Stakes,
beating with considerable ease Anteverta, Lambton,
Roger Thornton, and Nestor. In my opinion this
horse is quite equal to his brother ; and being so,
will often bear Sir Charles's colours in the van; more-
over, he is very susceptible of improvement, his present
condition and appearance being not altogether of the
most blooming description.
The Gateshead Lottery Stakes being over the two
mile course, suited Pelopidas to a nicety, he winning.
rather easily from Happy Joe and that curiously named
horse The Varmint.
The Speculation Plate and Scurry Handicap require
no comment.
The three southern meetings of Bibury, Stockbridge,
and Winchester, I shall make a point of dilating upon
