GOODWOOD AND LIVERPOOL—GUESSES A''
TRUTH.
Recent running has produced a marked effect on spe'
culation. In the :ist of quotations certain horses have
attained a prominency which was unexpected, and
which is, in certain instances, surprising. The betting
on the Goodwood Stakes has been particularly regulated
by the " performances" of the past fortnight. Kingston's
success at Newcastle brought Teddington's chance into
conspicuous notice. Teddington is weighted at 9st 611',
but notwithstanding his crushing impost, many shrewd
and experienced judges deem him capable of achieving
success. This opinion is somewhat supported by :a con'
sideration of his victory for the Emperor's Plate at Ascot :
the vast merit of that performance is undeniable, still it
does not prove the unquestionable superiority .of his
chance in the approaching encounter. His partizans,
however, derive additional encouragement from the fact
of Chanticleer's winning the Goodwood Stakes in 1 848 at
9st 21b, 4lbs lighter than Teddington's present weight;
still Teddington's unsuccessful running for the t.3.pring
Handicap induces me to withhold my confidence from
him on this occasion ; indeed, the severity of the courser
and the telling impost compels me to regard his winning
as almost a physical impossibility. Vindex, too, hoe
recently riven into considerable favour, a circumstance
attributable to his " kind " performance with Kingston,
at Newcastle. Under the guidance of " Tiny Wells°
he displayed his unquestionable racing powers most ad'
vantageously, and showed that when "i'the vein. "
he
was capable of meritorious achievements. If ridden by
a boy of sufficient strength to hold him, he will don lA'
less obtain a very forward position in the race. Hari COS
won the Cumberland Plate, at Carlisle, on Wednes4 isl
last, and was immediately backed with considerable
spirit for the Goodwood Stakes. Last ye at,
carrying 7st, she ran third for this event, and she
is now handicapped at 21bs only for her yeas

factory ; and taking into due consideration her sue( ,ese
at Carlisle, and the subsequent running of Lough ]Ba• op
to whom she conceded 6 Ibs, and whom she beat by - tore
lengths, I am induced to entertain a favourable opii von
of her chance. Endeavours have been made to 131 ring
Trifle into the market, but I regard them with suspic
I will now briefly direct attention to the minor ev, tints
to be decided at Liverpool. The meeting at Sain o•ee
commences on Wednesday, and terminates on Friday,
judicious management and a satisfactory supply of a/ or'
being likely to extend widely its already large and de'
served popularity. Wednesday's list contains six iteml;
but has no very prominent or attractive " fea to re.
Dervish has incurred a 31b. penalty for the 3/Lerse9
Stakes, still his additional impost is little calculate to
interfere with his success. Should the Reel colt put in
an appearance for the Produce Stakes, I shall k,e
clined to place some confidence in his pretensions to
support. lam informed that he has been most ssatie'
factorily tried ; but his owner may reserve hi:n fo: r the
" Home Meeting "at Goodwood. In his absence, pa'
haps Sortie will be the successful competitor.
General Anson's intended filly—either Lady Margaret
or May Fair, appears likely to carry off the Lanca. shire
Oaks, although I should be inclined to regard The
Queen with some partiality if I were credibly informal
of her " fitness." The nominations for the other strikes
to be run for on the first day are not yet made.
My opinions on the Liverpool Cup were fully stated,
in The Sun on Saturday, and at present I am not inclined
to alter them. Harbinger and Montague have be en ad'
vanced into high favour, and Daniel O'Rourke bats ec"
countered determined opposition and is now friendless;
movements which have borne out my remarks sooner
than I anticipated.
