NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING.
FRIDAY.

A deliciously bright morning, warm sun, and bracing air
made every one rather early, more particularly as racing
began at 11, and some settling had to be got through. The
card was very good for a last day, including the Newmarket
Derby, the Prendergast, and a match between White Duck
and Todloben, all more or less interesting. Zephyr in the
Sweepstakes, D. 1., made rather an example of her field, and
Longdown, started to gain the century for the second horse
in the Derby, did not make Gladiateur gallop. A slight
shade of odds was laid on White Duck in the Match,
though the way Todlebeu ran at Bath, and his forward posi-
tion in the Derby, running in front throughout, and finish-
ing fifth, warranted his noble owner supporting him. He
must have been out of form, however, for he could not go
at all, and the Duck won as she pleased. Tom Jennings
had a surprise in store for backers in the Fifteen Sovs
Sweepstakes with Plutus, who, at 20 to 1, came out and
defeated his field, among them King Hal, who was giving
a great deal too much weight, for ho was not in the race,
which the Count's horse won with ease, Sister to Amber
and Actna making a dead heat of it for second honours.
Another distinguished foreigner made his debut in the next
race over the T.Y.C., Raven, a son of Trumpeter, whom
some clever people affirm to be the coming young one of the
stable. He is rather a nice-looking colt, but he must do some-
thing better than beat the two very mediocre horses he did
to-day before we can pronounce an opinion about him. The
Prendergast showed the Danebury stable to be in form,
Jack-in-the-Green, who was about equal favourite with
Janitor, galloping away with his horses, and only Crown
Prince at all near him. The Baron's horse did not look well,
and has not been himself since Ascot. The hard ground
has not agreed with him. Mr. Pitt walked over for the
Produce Stakes, and Cesarewitch, sold by CaptainMachell
to Mr. Wilkinson almost directly he had claimed him, was
made a hot favourite, and suffered defeat by another Glen-
masson, a colt of Mr. J. H. Wyndham's, called The Clyde.
Mr. Wilkinson claimed the winner, and General Anger-
stein, who ran a colt by Zuyder Zee, out of an Arab mare,
claimed Cesarewitch. Lord Portsmouth has challenged
for the Whip with Sydmonton and its present holder. Lord
Glasgow has accepted the challenge with the colt by Bro-
ther to Bird-on-the-Wing out of the Drake's dam.
There was very little Cambridgeshire or Derby betting
during the afternoon, nor at Cambridge on the journey
home. Salpinctes was in groat demand for the Handicap,
and Hair-at-Law came into notice from the outaido divi-
sion. The Duke was in good odour, and Provisor kept his
place pretty firmly. The quotations will show the amount
of business done.
