SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

EGIIAM RACES.
This meeting commenced yesterday, and under circum-
stances. that cannot fail of answering the most sanguine
expectations of its supporters. Always a favourite meet-
ing, it has within the last four or five years acquired seh
ditianal popularity from the patronage afforded it by some
of the most influential members of the Jockey Club, who,
as well by subscriptions to the fund, as by entering their
horses in the beet stakes, have assisted in elevating it to a
higher class than it bad formerly occupied. At one time the
races were evidently on the decline ; it is to the personal
exertions of Mr. Boulding that they are now constituted of
Newmarket horses and jockeys, instead of fourth-ratr
country nags and leather platers. The sanction given
them by his present Majesty by subscribing to the fund,
and directing the entry of his horses, have in a great degree
contributed to their importance; and there can be no
doubt the Royal family would have been present but for
their previous engagements. In our account of Ascot-
heath Races we noticed the alterations made on the race
ground by Mr. I3oulding, to whom the ent;re conduct of
the meeting is committed ; the new betting stand, the
judges and stewards' stands, the weighing house, and the
other appointments, are en a vastly-improved plan, while
the alterations in that part of the course appropriated to
the running are made with the best possible judgment
The delightful state of the weather, added to a very in-
viting list, attracted a very numerous and fashionable as-
semblage yesterday. We particularly noticed the follow-
hoz distinguished personages :—Duke and Duchess of
Richmond and Earl March, Ent and Countess of Errol,
Earl of Uxbridge, Earl Sefton and the Ladies Molineux,
Earl Mountehat kit, Lord John Fitzroy, Lord W. Lennox,
lion. Captain Roos, Captain and Lady Agnes Byng,
Colonel Russell, Sir Frisk, ick I3athur-t, Sir John Gibbons,
Lady Georgians Pager, Mr. Scott Smnehewer, Mr. Gib-
bons, Mr. Greville, Mr. Granville Berkeley, Mr. 1)e
Burgh, Mr. F. Charlton, Mr. Wrightwiek, Captain
Locke, Mr. Bulkeley, Captain Bulkeley, Mr. Maberly,
Mr. Ramsbottom, Mr. Berkeley Craven, Colonel Wood.
The above are only a small number of the fashionables
present ; the crowded state of the course prevented our
obtaining a more complete list of the company. Besides
the races described below, the list contained the Runny-
mede stakes of 10 wove. each, and 30 soya. added, for three
year olds and upwards, the winner to be sold for 300,
Ste. Beats one mile; for which Augur, Bustle, and
Brother to Gayhurst, appeared as entered. It appeared,
however, that Bustle had been named by mistake for it;
and as the stewards refused to allow two horses to run for
it, the stakes were declared void. We subjoin an account
of the running

The Gold Cop, value 100 sous. (in specie), by subscribers
of 10 goys. each (tl.e second horse to save his stake).
The winner to be sold fur 1)00 sovs. kc. Two miles.
Mr. Nlaberly's Palemon, 5 yrs 1
Lord Mo untelvir I eit's Ilmselas, 5 yrs ..... 2
Mr. Holbrook's Fury, 8 yrs 3

The following paid forfeit :---flindostao, ifirloo,
Mares&cld, Syntax, Coronet, Windfall, The Fairy, and
Two. The odds were 5t02 on Ramielas, and Sto 2 agat
• Palemon. We cannot conceive, however, upon what
grounds Hasselits was made such a carom ite—certainly
public running did not justify it. Ilasselas went off in
front at a miseralde pace, Palemon seconding him, and
Fury lying in the rear, where she remained to the end of
the race. Pavia kept in his place as second (being on
Palemon) till within half a distance of the finish, where
he took the lead from llasselas, maintained it to the ch iir,
and won in a canter by five lengths. Ginolly rode nal-
selas, and Chapple the Fury, who proved herself to be
aptly named, for ❑o sooner was the jockey on than he was
off (fortunately without injury); nor was it without
blindfolding, and plenty of coaxing, that she could be pre-
vailed on to let him remount.

Produce Sweepstakes of 50 SAM each, h. ft. New Milr,
His Majesty's Vanloo
Lord Uxbridge's Juvenis

The following paid:--Mr. Berkeley's Credulity, Lord
Stradbroke's f. by Tiresias, and Mr. Nowell's f. by Bus-
tard. Betting Lto 2 on Vanloo—it might as. well have
been AO to 2, for Juvenis would have been dear at AO/.
Won by a length without difficulty. 'There was not any-
thing in the race to call fur detail. The winner rode Ly
Pavia, the litter by Boyce.
A Sweepstakes of five soya. etch, and 30 added. Heats,
