some interest It seemed to give satisfaction to those gen-
tlemen who do not bet very largely, and who therefore dis-

like a crowd, but a very large number of the business mem-
bers did not enter its precincts, and Those who wanted to in-

vest largely wers obliged to seek them on the lawn itself,
The success of Adventurer gave a lift to his stable coin-

panion, National Guerd, in the estimation of the public for
the Derby, and he was at once sought after at 100 to 7, as

the running here showed that Watson had made no mis-
take in the form of his stable. The winner had been quietly

backed for some time at long odds for a great deal of money,
and the gentlemen win a good stake on him. The double

victory of Poland was fully expected, as he started at 2 to
1 against him in his first r-ice, and 6 to 4 on him for the
second. He is a fine, slashing goer, and, judged by his
performances here, it is by no means certain that he is
not quite Al. Molly Carew won with consummate ease,
and st'll further confirmed the opinion generally formed,
that she is the best two-yr-old yet out, From the delay
in the starts for the City and Suburban and the Inkerman
Plate, the sport was not concluded till six o'clock, but we
rejoice to be able to observe that there was a marked im-
provement in the starting. For the former several horses
were evidently not meant to take a prominent part in
the race, and we think they might have been more disre-
garded than they were, as the slackness of their riders
caused Mr. 111q3leorge to postpone the dropping of his
flag much longer than there was any occasion for. But,
considering the number of short races on the card to-
day. we think no oause of complaint could fairly be alleged.
Very little betting took place on the great Newmarket and
Derby events, the only changes of any consequence being
quoted below.
The Trial Stakes of 50 sous, added to a sweepstakes of 5 soya
each, for 3-yr-olds, 7st lib ; 4-yr-olds, Bst 71b; s.yr-olds,

Betting-5 to 2on Argonaut, 4to 1 agst Buckenham, 10

Argonaut and Buckenham jumped off side by side, but
in a few strides the former took a clear lead, going on with
Buckenham second, Necromancer third, Gelert fourth, and
Jaco two or three lengths in rear of all. This order was
maintained till they crossed the road, where Buckenham
went up to Argonaut, and between the two a fine race took
place, Buckenham ultimately winning by a head, Necro-
mancer was a bad third, Gelert fourth, Jaco fifth, and
Stanton sixth.

The Heathcote Plate of 50 sovs (handicap) for all ages,

Winners extra. New T.Y.C.

agst East Sheen, 10 to 1 agst Rapture, 100 to 8 agst Miss
Emma.

After one false start Libellous made play, followed by
East Sheen, and the favourite, Virginia lying next, Rap-
ture and Miss Emma following abreast, with Briton some
lengths in the rear. As they came down the hill Poland
drew away from the ruck and went in an easy winner by
six lengths, a head between second and third. Libellous
was fourth, a neck behind Rapture. Miss Emma was
fifth, Knight of the Bath sixth, Selection seventh, Briton
was last but one, and Duchess of Kent tailed off. Imme •
diately after passing the pit Knight of the Bath staggered
and fell, throwing Adams heavily, but not severely injur-
ing him. -

for colts Bst 101 b, and fillies Bst 71b, the second horse to

Betting-7 to 4on Molly Carew. 10 to 1 agst Tomfoolery,
100 to 7 agst the aataplan filly, 100 tc 6 each aget Nar-
bonne and Ackworth.

An excellent start took place at the first attempt, Lady
Warwick making play on the lower ground, clooely followed
by Narbonne, Ackworth, Confederate, and Tomfoolery, the
rest well up, with the favourite in the middle. About a
quarter of a mile from home the favou(ite came through
her horses, and won with great ease by three quarters of a
length. Diomed was second on sufferance, beating Nar..
bonne by a head. The Rataplan colt was a bad fourth, and
Confederate fifth. The rest came in in straggling order,
not being persevered with.
The City and Suburban Handicap of 15 soya each, 10 ft,
and only 5 if declared on or before Feb. 3,with 100 added,
winners extra, the second to receive 25 soya out of the

stone, Cairncastle, Catch 'em Alive, Canary, Barbadoes,

Betting-7 to 2 agst Gardener, 4to 1 agst Catch 'em

Asteroid, and Comet, 25 to 1 each agst Merry Maid and

Spain, and Summerside, 40 to 1 agst Turn of Luck, 50 to 1
agst Lapidist, 66 to 1 agst Cairncastle, Beachy Head, Ama-
zonian, and Weatherspy.
After several failures, the early ones caused by the frac-
tiousness of Middlewatch, and the latter by the evident re-
luctance of several jockeys to come to the post, the lot got
away on good terms. Adventurer at once made play, fol-
lowed by Umpire, Catch 'em Alive, and Newchurch to the
top of the hilt, where Catch 'em Alive, took up the running,
Umpire also heading Adventurer, who came on third, 0 beron
fourth, Newchurch lying fifth on the inside, with Escape,
Gardener, and Mr. Payne's filly close up. Next to these,
with a slight interval, followed the ruck, at the head of which
were Lapidist and General Hess, the last of all being Sam-
merside, Amazonian, and Barbadoes. On passing the mile •
post Adventurer again went in front, and headed Catch 'em
Alivo, the two coming on by themselves, followed at a short

distance by Umpire, who was next the lower rails, New-
church, Spencer, and Comet heading the next division. As
they came on towards the stand there was a regular melee
among the second lot of horses, and Umpire soon after-
wards, making his effort, closed with Adventurer, who
hung a little to him, and Noble complained of a cross. It
was evident, however, that the winner was full of running
and it was only in consequence of his being eased that he
gave the semblance of going out of his line. The two went
on apparently locked together, but Umpire on being called
on died away every stride, while Adventurer went in a
clever winner by a neck, though evidently capable of in-
creasing the distance considerably. General Hess was two
lengths from Umpire, Comet fourth, and Overton fifth.
After the race an objection was lodged against the rider of
Adventurer by Mr. Ten Broeck, but it was overruled by the
stewards, after hearing evidence on the question.
The London-bridge Stakes of 5 save each, with 50 sous
added by the Brighton Railway Company; for 2-yr-olds

Betting-2 to 1 agst Bangle, sto 2 agst Antidote, sto 1
agst any other (offered).
After a couple of false starts, in the second of which
William Day's filly bolted, jumped the fence at the top
turn, fell, and threw her rider, the rest got off on fair terms.
Bangle at once made play, followed by Antidote on the in-
side,
the Syren colt lying third, and Escape fourth. In de-
scending the hill Baliverne went up and made his effort, but
gave.. way, leaving the race to the Syren filly, Antidote,
