STOCKBRIDGE RACES.-THURSDAY.

These races are held on the same ground as tbat on which
the Bibury Club hold their meeting, consequently no com-
ments are required at our hands regarding the arrange-
ments in the stands and enclosures. The weather, if pos-
sible, was more brilliant and enjoyable than the preceding
day, but the racing could hardly be said to be so good.
The first race of the day was the Biennial Stakes, for which
Gladstone, on account of his beating King of the Vale at
Ascot, was installed first favourite, but he was beaten very
easily, not being able to be even one of the first three. The
race was won cleverly by Lord Strathmore's horse Sea
King, The Stand Plate produced seven horses to compete
for it, and Confidence was made the favourite at the com-
mencement of the betting, but an enormous quantity of
money being got upon Buck he became first favourite,
Confidence retiring to 4to 1. The race was won rather
cleverly by Confidence, Southport being second. The fa-
vourite did not obtain a very good start. For the Stock-
bridge Cup even money was laid on King of Diamonds,
and he thoroughly justified the odds placed in him by win-
ning in a canter. The Beaufort Handicap was a match
between Balham and Kingswood, resulting in the clever
victory of the former. The Selling Sweepstakes was won
by Indolence, who was put up to auction after the race,
and was bought in for 130 guineas. Captain Little riding,
Libellous was made the favourite for the Andover Stakes,
but Mr. Thompson on Rubicon passed the winning-post
first very easily. Ten horses came to the starting-post for
the Mottisfont Stakes, the result being in favour of Dur-
ham. Full details will be found below.

10 sous each, with 100 added, for 3-yr-olds; colts, Bst

Betting— 5 to 4 agst Gladstone, 4 to 1 agst Sea King, 5
to 1 agst Blondin, and 10 to 1 agst any other.
Tademus made, play, followed by Gladstone, Golden Dust,
and Voluptas, Sea King and Laurel being the last two, but
after running a few strides Sea King rushed past his horses
and came on with a clear lead, Voluptas going on second,
with Tademus next, Gladstone at the same time dropping
into the rear. Descending the hill, Sea King considerably
increased his lead, but as they passed the mile post the lot
closed up, and ran in company to the bushes. Here Blondin
took the third place. and on reaching the dip fademus was
beaten; the favourite at the same time joined the front
next the rails, the four running in a line to the enclosure,
where Gladstone was disposed of, leaving the issue with the
three, Sea King, who held his advantage to the end, win-
ning cleverly by a length ; a similar distance between the
second and third, two lengths separating the third and
fourth. Tademus was fifth, and Voluptas last.
The Stand Plate (Handicap) of 50 sovs for 3-yr-olds and
