SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET FIRST OCTOBER MEETING.

THURSDAY.

The sport to-day was of a higher quality—it could not
well be worse—than yesterday. Missionary, Tennyson,
Siberia, Le Bearnais, and seven others tried their strength
in the Seventeenth Triennial, and Lord Coventry's colt
looked like the winner at the distance, but, showing the
white feather when challenged by Furze Chat, was beaten
cleverly. Sheridan, with a heavy commission on him, just
managed to land his baciers by a short head, thanks to
Loathes riding, in the handicap across the fist; and the
Whiteleg filly squanc'ered her horses in the Two-Year-
Old Sweepstakes, upsetting the great favourites, Herschel
and Lady Egieia—the former a very warm one—in the
hollowest style. There was a good race for the Queen's
Guineas over the severe Beacon Course between Evaina,
and Oldminster, the latter appearing to have the best of it
at the distance; but he was beaten on the mare getting up
with him, and D iley landed the B colcurs by a head.
The " blue and yellow" was again borne in the van in the
Rutland Stakes by Z ,pbyr, a very clever-looking scion of
King Tom. The weather, which has been brilliant for the
last few days, g4ve signs of breaking this afternoon, and
the air on the heath was chilly.

ning, followed by the favourite on the lower ground, for a
quarter of a mile, when Vabalathus went to the fore, and
came on with a clear lead into the cords, where he was
joined by Balornock, the pair finishing a close race home,
Lord Uxbridge's colt winning rather cleverly at last by a
head. There were four lengths between second and third,
