SPORTING NOTES.

THE CESAREWITCH.

The races of last week threw no light on the great event
to be decided to-morrow, with the exception of Mail Train
and Gratitude meeting with increased support, and the
firmness of Lady Hylda in the market after her easy defeat
of East Lancashire in the Guineas. There will, in all pro-
bability, be about 30 horses face the starter, to be selected
from the following :

Speculation
Blaakdown, who won the Goodwood Stakes as a three-
year-old, heads the list, and if in anything like form
is certainly not out of the fray ; but he does not look
as if he was wanted on the present occasion.
His stable companion, Dr. Syntax, may also
help to swell the field, but the opposition which set In
against him last week seems to have settled his chance:
Vermont and Miner are also probable starters. The latter
may run to assist his stable companion, but he has not the
ghost of a chance,as he is a greatly overrated horse. Despair,
5 years, 7st 121 b, is certainly not out of the race, and might
run into a " situation." Weatherbow will represent Sir
Joseph Hawley, but his previous performances have been
so moderate, that I am disinclined to place much confidence
in him. The old Brewer has been supported for the out-
side chance both by the public and his owner, in the expec-
tation that he may turn oat another Flash in the Pan.
Those who trust him will find out their mistake when the
numbers are hoisted. Ten Broeck has three engaged—viz.,
Canzonette, Myrtle, and Charmian. He is always to be
feared for this race, and whichever he selects will be near
winning, if not the actual winner. The money market
points to Char mien as likely to carry his colours. Mail Train
is the Simon Pure of William Day's lot, and the money
has been piled on as if the race was all over but shouting.
No trainer makes fewer m'stakes. With such tackle in the
stable to try his horses, he ought not to be left out
in any lot to beat the field. The Calista colt will repre-
sent Baron Rothschild. No horse could be better, or
more fit, and with such horses as Hipolyta and Evelina
in the stable to try him with, he ought to hold
safe all the three-year-olds. At all events the public aro
oertain to get a good honest run for their money, which is
more than can be 'aid of nearly all the others engaged.
Gratitude, a brown filly by Newminster, out of Charity, by
Melbourne, has never yet won a race, although she ran five
times last year. She was once highly thought of for the
Oaks, but disappointed her party. She is now in fine con-
dition, and if she cannot win with only 6st on her back she
ought to be turned out of tra'ning and put in a cab.
Thalestris is one of the best bred horses in the race, and
after her defeat of Early Purl, quite a rush was made to
get on. That she can stay the distance admits of no
doubt. The money is on, and she is sure to take a promi-
nent part in the encounter. Crisis has too much weight,
and Planet will be more at home over a shorter coarse. Sus-
picion has been under a cloud for some time, bat has now
resumed a more healthy appearance in the quotations. Ilia
running with Red Cap and Magnum Bonum at Lewes was
no mean performance, and if he only goes fit to the post, it
will give tne ravouritea art Loetr worse to boot him. Cathe-
dral is the hope of John Osborne's stable, and is said to be
batter than the Miner at even weights. Ho is about
the best place investment of anything in the
race, as the favourites seldom run into a place
if they cannot win, My final impression is
that the race will lay between GRATITUDE, MAIL
TRAIN, CALISTA COLT, SUSPICION, and THALESTRIS
and, in endeavouring to forestall the judge in his decision,
I shall place

MAIL TRAIN or GRATITUDE 1
CALISTA COLT 2
SUSPICION

TI.Ip Select Stakes will be secured by Cambuscan, and the
Beaufort bakes by Sir Roger. Longdown ought to win
the Prendergast, And Fille de l'Air or Mail Train the

Dorby.
