NEWMARKET HOUGHTON MEETING
THURSDAY.
_ _ _

The chief business of the morning seemed to be the sale
of horses in training belonging to the great French stable
now at Newmarket, which divided people's attention with
the adjustment of accounts on Wednesday's racing. The
intention of the sellers is explained by the fact that five lots
only were sold, and the Derby favourite bought in, although
4,000 guineas were offered for him. A slight mist suc-
ceeded a white frost at 12 o'clock, but it soon cleared off, and
a fine autumnal afternoon followed. The racing was very
good, several races producing large fields. A slight confu-
sion occurred in putting up the number of the winner of the
third race, and a very long delay took place in a half-mile
handicap, when a two-yr-old ran away with its tiny jockey
and galloped five miles. Much time was thus lost, but a
walk-over for a free handicap enabled the last two races to
be expedited—and a subscription plate, which closed the
proceedings, was run within a few minutes of the prescribed
time. The winner of this race ran out at the finish, and
knocked down Mr. H. May, the trainer. Lord Stamford
at once galloped into the town, and sent Mr. Faircloth, the
surgeon, to the 'spot on his hack; in a few minutes the
sufferer becsme sensible, and was pronounced to have had
no bone broken. No betting on future events came under
our notice during the day.

In consequence of Annette resolutely refusing to face the
flag, upwards of half an hour was lost at the post before
Mr. M'George could get them away. When the flag was
lowered the favourite, in company with Hetty, Tisiphone,
and Keane, was the first to show in advance, with the
others following at wide intervals. On entering the cords

of the Manor, Blackcock, Lady Louisa, and Zora, with the
others lying close up to the cords, where Zora went to the
front, and carried on the running to half way up, when she
dropped back, and was immediately headed by Blackcock,

the chair, when Doyle brought up Lady Louisa with a

corn the turn dearer.
