TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

LIVERPOOL, Nov. 11.

SIR,—By referring to my "Sporting Notes" of
Monday, you will find that I cautioned your
numerous readers against backing Donnybrook for
the Liverpool Cup at his ridiculously short price.
My advice, you will fiad, has turned out precisely
as anticipif ed. The Tartar was at 25 to 1 when I
penned my remarks. A FRESH MAN.

The following are the remarks of our Sporting Writer
alluded to above, quoted verbatim from The Sun of Monday,

Nov. 7 :
" Donnybrook, immediately the acceptances became
known, was installed first favourite. in fact, nearly all the
bookmakers are full against him. The confederacy have been
keeping him all the year for something, and they seem
now to have got him handicapped to their satisfaction. The
TARTAR belongs to the same interest; therefore it would
be better to wait until the day of the race to see if any
demonstration should be made in hie favour, rather than
take the ridiculously short price about Donnybrook at pre.
sent, That the commission which has been executed about
the latter is genuine there is not the shadow of a doubt.
The pull in the weights is so greatly in favour of Donny-
brook that, unless his party turn round and back THE
TARTAR at the last moment, I expect he will have no
difficulty in disposing of the moderate field that will oppose
him. The next two, in my estimation, are The Brewer
and Twilight."
