SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

LIVERPOOL AUTUMN MEETING.—TITESDAY,
Seven events, five of which, wo are sorry to say, were
over the T.Y.C., are quite enough at this time of year, and
the Hurdle Race commenced the proceedings at 1430. I
was rather a hollow victory for Puss, the favourite, Morocco,
and Stanton being soon out of it, Provisor linded the
rather heavy odds on him in the Handicap Plate easily, as
did Bessy in the Lancashire Stakes; but the latter, not
having carried extra weight, was disqualified, and the stakes
awarded to Hartleap.

The Knowsley Nursery always furnishes a large field)
and 23 on this occasion faced the starter, who despatched
them with less, than the usual delay. The favourite, Lion
—a fine Virindhound colt, who ran the Duke very closely
at York—had the best of it from the first; though the
Imogene filly managed to got within a head of him at
the post, and would probably have passed him in another
stride or tiro.

The Flying Handicap is the other feature of the first day,
and resulted this year in the defeat of a very warm tA-
vourite, Coup d'Etat, who had a little the worst of the
start, teing soon out of it; and an outsider, Pupil, won
rather cleverly.

The attendance was but moderate.
