BIBURY CLUB.

"The Hampshire week," as the series of meetings com-
mencing on Tuesday with the comparatively unimportant
one at Odiham are commonly designated, is an agreeable
change after the crowding, bustle, and somewhat riotous
proceedings of the metropolitan gatherings. Stockbridge
and its neighbourhood are a sort of southern Newmarket,
and the racing partakes cf the purely business character
that marks the head-quarters of the Turf,
The first two events in the Club programme, a Handicap
Plate over the Old Mile anti a Sweepstakes over the T. Y.C.,
were both good things for the fielders, the favourities being
beaten in very hollow styl) by outsiders at 6 and 10 to 1.
The Champagne brought cut a very fair-looking field of nine
young ones, from among whom Lisette, Missionary, Rotho-
mago, and Trapeze were nest fancied from their good looks,
the first named especially being a particularly racing-like
looking filly, and backed a; evens against the field. Both sbe
and Missionary, the latter looking as
unprepared as when
he ran at Bath, were, hosever, easily beaten by Cordelia, a
stable companion of the ft,vourite, who came with a rush at
the distance, awl. won cleverly. The Bibury Stakes had only
four runners, and Suspicion going to the front a quarter of
a mile from home won as she liked. The distance in the
50 Sovs Plate (five furlongs) just suited the Gunner, who
disposed of his horses with ease.
The most interesting race of the day was the Stockbridge
Biennial, as it promised to show something of the cream of
the Southern stables. The Duke, who has already been
introduced into the Derby quotations, came with a private
reputation from the Danebury stud. A field of 15 faced the
starter for it, but the result we must leave the telegraph to
tell.

There was but a small attendance compared with other
club days we remember. One of the great patrons of the
meeting was absent through the serious illness of Sir Wil-
liam Codrington, who, we regret to say, ruptured a blood
vessel last night. From a telegram, however, received on
the Course during the afternoon we are enabled to state
that the hon. baronet is progressing favourably.
