BEDFORD RACES.-YESTERDAY.

The weather was much pleasanter than on the opening
day, but there was an evident falling off in the attendance.
The racing, which will be found fully detailed below, with
one exception, was not productive of exciting finishes.
Though Isoline was said to be "coughing," she was very
freely supported by her owner and the stable, and the easy
manner in which Gibraltar cantered away from her and
Blondin at the finish, stamps him as a really good horse
over a long course. The features of the betting were the
" rushes" made to be on Limosina, who was installed first
favourite for the Cesarewitch, and the exchanging of posi-
tion of Lord Coventry's pair, Umpire and Emblem. Fan-
tail and Romanoff were in better odour, and the others re-
mained as previously quoted. Subjoined are details of the
day's running :
The Hunters' Stakes of 25 sous, added to a Sweepstakes of
5 sous each, for three-yr-olds and upwards; selling
allowances; gentlemen jockeys; professionals 61b extra.

in froni, and carried on the running with Abernethy,

thus until nearing the straight, where Rockley joined the
front division, At the distance, Baliverne compounded,
and immediately afterwards Rockley took up the running,
increased his lead opposite the enclosure, and won in a
canter by a length and a half ; a neck separated the second

agat any other.

Gibraltar went away with the lead, Isolino going on
second, Camperdown third, Blondin fourth, and lambic
last. rho latter, after rounding the turn beyond the
stand, passed Blondin and ran alongside Isoline until
reaching the three-quarter of a mile post, where he quitted
her, and they headed Gibraltar. With the eamption of
Biondin dropping into the last place and Isoline passing
Gibraltar, no variation occurred until they approached the
stand, passing which Isoline was first, lambic second, Gib-
raltar third, Camperdown fourth, and Blondin bringing up
the rear. On the far side lambic dropped from the front
and was soon hopelessly in the rear, and a mile from home
Gibraltar went alongside Isoline, and took a "feeler," after
which Blondin and Camperdown drew to the front. After
waiting on Isolino into the straight, Gibraltar came away
and won by 11 lengths; Camperdown a bad third. Isolino
was pulled up at the enclosure, and lambic was beaten half
a mile.

BETTING AT MANctiESTER—TIIURSDAY.
The business on the Cesarewitch is still confined to but
few horses. All the favourites are very firm. Umpire at
one time had rather a suspicious appearance, but his
friends rallied, and the highest offer against him at the
close was 100 to 6. Buckenhara and Hurricane were sent
to the right about, reports being current that they had both
broken down. Closing prices :---
