SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

WARWICK RACES.-WEDNESDAY.

A bright autumn sun pouring down its rays with the
heat of July was a welcome change after the rather chilly
air of yesterday, and helped to crowd the course and stand
with gay pleasure-seekers. A sale of blood stock by
Messes. Bretherton and Harrison attracted a large audience
to the course an tour before the races, and some of the
stock fetched fair prices.

Cadiz carried off the first race easily, Nebula in the
Welter Cup squandering a great favourite in the person of
Cheerful, who had been previously backed for the St.
Leger. The County Handicap was another surprise for the
gentlemen, a filly of Mr. Snewing's making all the run-
ning, and winning easily.
The Warwick Cup brought only three horses to the post,
the presence of Dr. Syntax, an extreme outsider for the
Great Northern event, promising a taste of his quality. He
pulled double all the way, and, taking the lead from the
stand, won with comparative ease by three parts of a length.
The pace was but indifferent. After the race 40 to 1 was
taken about the winner for the St. Leger.
The Nursery Handicap was won cleverly by Rizzio,
being the second time to-day his owner's colours first
caught the judge's eye—a rather unusual circumstance for
Mr. Robertson.
The St. Leger betting will be found below.

distance, where Cadiz came out and won in a canter by two
lengths; a bad third.

1 agst Alcibiade.

Cheerful, with Alcibiada at his girths, made play, Nebula
lying off two or three lengths until nearing the Star Close,
where the favourite drew away, the latter at the same time
taking the second place. On entering the straight, Nebula
ran up to Cheerful, the pair coming on in company to the
distance, where Mr. Down's filly took a decided lead, and
won very easily by a length ; a bad thitd.

what increased his lead, and on reaching the distance had
his horses beaten, General Hess being the first to give way,

a Wretched third, Golden Dust was fourth, Paddy O'Rourke
fifth, and Ossian sixth ; Aurelian, in company with General
Hess and Fletton, were the last three.

Betting-7 to 4on Usher, sto 1 agst Vulture, and 100 to
15 agst Queen Fastrada.
Vulture, in company with Queen Fastrada, cut out the
work, having Wave and the favourite side by side as her
immediate followers, Madame Tagliafico acting as whipper-
in. They ran thus to the bend, where Usher drew forward
and joined Vulture, who in a few strides after drew back,
leaving Lord Westmoreland's colt in command, who won
cleverly by half a length, Queen Fastrada defeating Wave
by a length for second ; a bad fourth. The winner was
bough,: in for 155 guineas.

starting the added money was not given.
Betting-11 to 8 agst Fairwater, 6to 4 agst Dr. Syntax,
and 4 to 1 agst Magnum Bonum.
Fairwater went to the float immediately after starting,
waited upon by Magnum Bonum and Dr. Syntax to the Star
enclosure, where the latter overpulling Taylor, ran past his
horses and came on with a commanding lead, but running
extremely wide at the bend, which enabled Fairwater once
again to appear in front ; but on passing the stand the
young one again went to the fore, and with the favourite in
close company made the rest of the running and won very
cleverly by three parts of a length; Magnum Bonum finished
a length and a half in their rear.
After the race 1,000 to 30 was offered against the winner
for the St. Leger.

a quarter of an hour after the time set down. On settling
into their places the Jet colt took a clear lead, followed by
Imposition and Farnhurst side by side, with Diploma,
Itizzio, and Black Friar lying up. Entering the Star en-
closure Farnhurst took second Place,
Rizzio going on third,
with Imposition next. On reaching
the distance Rizzio
joined the Jet colt, the pair running locked to the stand,
where Mr. Robertson's colt drew away and won cleverly by
a length and a half, Farnhurst was a bad third, Black Friar
was fourth, Gazehound fifth, Eleanor sixth, and Imposition
next ; the three last, beaten off, were Diploma, the Sea Boy,
