SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

EPSOM AUTUMN MEETING.

FRIDAY.

The addition of a 701. Plate for race-horses to the
hurdle and steeplechase events, to which the sport on
the second day has hitherto been confined, materially
strengthened the bill of fare yesterday, and the weather,
although gloomy in the early part of the morning,
having turned out fine, there was a fair numerical at-
tendance, confined, however, as on the occasion of the
" legitimate" racing on the Downs, to the professional
and middle classes; of the "influential" the proportion
was smaller than at any previous meeting. The course
in all parts was awfully deep and " holding," making
easy falling for the riders, but proving distressing in
the extreme to the horses, many of whom could scarcely
raise a walk at the finish. The sport was indifferent;
the only thing that produced anything like a contest
being the Scramble Steeplechase, which the spectators
evidently imagined ought to have been won by the ani-
mal whose head was second past the winning post; the
general feeling on the subject was very significantly
expressed. The racing, which from bad management
was not got through until nearly dusk, came off as fol-
lows:

three, 7st 121 b; four, Bst 71b; five and upwards, 9st 31b;
