Thursday Morning.
The unusually late hour at which the races were brought to
a conclusion yesterday prevented our sending up any remarks
on them. Before supplying any further particulars we should
state that, actuated by the same liberal and judicious feeling
which has ever distinguished the management of this justly
popular met ting, the noble proprietor of the Stand has sur-
prised his numerous visitors by adding to it an elegant and com-
modious balcony, which, supported on pillars, with a neat flight
of steps at either end of it, is capable of holding three or four
hundred persons ; and, besides, being a great convenience to
those in the Stand, affords shelter from rain and heat to those
beneath it. (We arc in hopes that before another year Ascot
will hold out a similar attraction to its patrons.) The unfa-
vourable state of the weather for the day or two preceding the
races, added to the unavoidable absence of many of the influ-
ential supporters of the Turf cn electioneering business, had
a marked effect. on the attendance ; nevertheless, it was highly
respectable, comprehending a great number of fashionables,
of whom our next will contain a list. The weather cleared
up in the early part of the morning, and continued fine until
three o'clock, when it again changed, and the remainder of
the afternoon's amusements were deprived of much interest by
constant storms of wind and rain. The following are a few
additional particulars of the principal events decided :-
300 sous. Stakes.—Sepoy made running for half a distance,
ashen he fell astern; the Drummer immediately took it up,
followed by Scroggins till near the distance, where the latter
challenged ; a beautiful race home was won by the Drummer
by a length and a half.
Drawing Room Stakes.—Chapeau d'Espagne took the lead,
followed by Wisdom for a few strides, after which the second
place was taken by Marquis ; Velure lying third, Wisdom,
Pickwick, and Gil Bias next, and Pocket Hercules last. They
ran in this order round the Clump, where Wisdom passed the
mare, made the rest of the play, and won easy by two lengths.
Lavant Stakes.— Sister to Green Mantle cut out the work
to the distance, where the Comus colt went by her, and won;by
htlf a length cleverly. A good deal of money was laid out on
the winner.

GL odwocd Stakes.—The largeness of the field is attributable
to the allowance of 51b. in the Waterloo for horses beaten in
this race. Notwithstanding the number they got off with only
one false start, the confusion at first being so great that it was
impossible to say which was making play. As soon, however,
as the jockeys had selected their ground Tyrant took up the
running, with a ruck of horses at his side, and maintained it
for rather more than a mile. Jack-in-the-Green then went in
front, followed by Lucifer, Famine, The Carpenter, and Al-
fred, Hornsea lying in the rear. In going round the Clump
the tailing proceeded rapidly ; Sepoy, The Drummer, Cha-
peau, and several others, having already qualified for the 51b
allowance. Hornsea drew upon the horses in front as they
proceeded round the Clump, and at the T. Y. C. post was in a
good place. No other material change occurred amongst the
first division until within a distance and a half of home, when
Jack-in-the-Green declined. Lucifer, who was next the rails
on the whip-band side, then took up the play, The Carpenter
runiing at his side, Horesea next, and, well up with them;
Jack-in-the-Green and Famine. Lucifer and The Carpenter
seemed pretty fairly matched up to the Stand, where the whip
was found needful with the latter, and, that failing, Lucifer
r ion very nearly by a length ; Hornsea a middling third, Jack
fourth, Famine fifth, and Barney Bodkin sixth ; shocking tail-
ir g amongst the other twelve. Lucifer is the property of Mr.
D. Robinson, and was ridden by Twitcliett in a manner highly
creditable to him. The pace was good.
The other races do not call for any other remarks. Phos-
pllorus is lame, and will not run for any of his engagements.
The police arrangements were entrusted to Mr. Superin-
tendent May, Inspectors Wm. Haining and Steed, and Ser-
geant Otway of the A division ; we scarcely need observe that
the strictest order was preserved in every part of the course.
