SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET FIRST OCTOBER MEETING.
THURSDAY.

A very interesting race for the Queen's Plato over the
Beacon Course began to-day's spot t. Six horses entered for
it, though in reality only Harlequin and the winter of the
Goodwood Cup were in the race, which, before they had
breasted the hill, was left entirely to them. The issue was
never in doubt, however, for the game Isolina answered to
every call of her rider, and came in a clever winner by half
a half. Walloon carried off the Handicap Sweepstakes, de •
feating the favourite, Croagh Patrick, after a good race
between them, by half a length. The Sixteenth Triennial
brought together Midnight Mass, Evelina, and Ely, with
five others of lesser degree. The Baron's filly was made
the favourite, Ely being also backed for some money.
Owing to a very straggling start Evelina was left a long
Way in the rear,--a disadvantage which she did not recover,
and the race, which was looked upon almost as a certainty
for her, was won cleverly by Ely, Midnight Mass succumb-
ing half way up the cords, and the celebrated Tomato gain-
ing second honours by three lengths from Olivia.
The Two-year-old Handicap, bringing 16 to the post, was
won by Land of the West, who made all the running, and
won with the utmost ease by three lengths. The Plate A.F.
Manrico put to Lord Strathmore's account, the favourite,
Bosh, being second. The Rutland Stakes looked a cer-
tainty for Claremont, from his public running, the others
being too unknown to fame to warrant any outlay on their
chances. The Duke of Beaufort's filly made the running,
followed by the favourite, going steadily within himself,
looking as if he only waited for Aldcroft's call to come out
the winner. But to the dismay of his backers he stopped
on mounting the hill, and Acolyte, who had been lying
third, came with a lush and landed Lord Stamford'a colours
by some eight lengths.
The weather changed for the worse this afternoon, a
drizzling rain rendering the heath very disagreeable.

mand, :the others lying nearly abreast for the first two
miles, when he was beaten, and suddenly dropped into the
rear, the lead being left with Harlequin, close up with
whom was the favourite and Crafton Lass, the others, one
by one, giving way. On entering the rails Isoline joined
Harlequin, and half way up obtained a slight lead, whieh
she retained to the end, and won very cleverly by half a
length. Crafton Lass finished a bad third the others

reaching the post, and ran to the top of the town, and in
consequence did not reach the post in time to start. After
one failure they lett the post to a straggling start, in which

Mass, lying wide on the extreme right, came on with a clear
lead, followed in the cenire of the course by Olivia, Tomato,

one of great merit, and if carried into effect would have re-
flected honour on the Corporation of London ; but they
found that the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway
Company had obtained an act of Parliament empowering
them to erect a viaduct for their line across Ludgate-hill,
and had expended such large sums of money in constructing
their works as to render it impossible for them to abandon
the viaduct, which was an e3sential part of it. The directors,
with whom the committee put themselves in communica-
tion, declined under those circumstances to consider any
alternative plan, andthe committee had to relinquish an op-
position which was hopeless. The company, however, had
undertaken to build a viaduct highly ornamental in design
and appearance ; but he believed that, decorate it as they
might, the thing would be a great eyesore in that part of
the metropolis for all time. (Hear, hear.)
