SHREWSBURY AUTUMN MEETING.

There was a good field and a good race to-day for the
Handicap Plate over the six furlongs course, the Warrior
proving himself a good animal by giving Stockinger 101 b,
and his two year, and running a near second to Lord
Wiltcn's horse. The racing was so terribly delayed by
the time occupied, or rather wasted, in the start for the
Handicap Sweepstakes, the flag falling nearly one hour
after the specified time, that our resume of the sport must
be a brit f one,

The fields were good throughout, and the Shrewsbury
Cup, in the absence of Cambuscan, fell an easy prize to
Dunlteld, who won from start to finish. Convent carried off
the Enville Hall Stakes after a good race with Pupil, and
Birdfioder squandered his Lid in the Severn Stakes and
won in a canter. The owner of Vision, the third horse in
the race, biid an objection to the winner on the ground of
its being a flying start. The matter was referred to the
stewards and awaits their decision.
The weather has been favourable as yet, and the attend-
ance about the average.
Match, 100 sous each. Half a mile.

In consequence of several of the riders resolutely refusing
to join the starter it was considerably past the time before
Mr Marshall was enabled to despatch them from the post,
Confederate, Sympathy, and Lady Bohun, the three prin-
cipal performers, getting away with a strong lead; to this
lot succeeded Stockinger, the favourite, and Nu, at whose
girths were Warrior and Balornock, the Mabel colt being a
long way in the rear. On entering the straight Stockinger,
in company with Warrior and Connexion, got upon better
terms with their horses, but on reaching the distance the
latter was out of it; Stockinger at the same time headed
the leaders, followed at the stand by Warrior, who, how-
ever, was never enabled to get up, and was beaten cleverly
by three parts of a length ; a length and a half separated
the second and third ; Confederate was fourth close up,
sympathy fifth, Balornock sixth, Corinthian Tom and Nu
side by side next. Disappointment and Rubini were the

last two.
