SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

WORCESTER AUTUMN MEETING.—WEDNESDAY.
Though the early morning was wet and miserable, the
clouds before the moon dispersed, and the afternoon was fine
and most favourable to the sport on the second day of this
gathering. The attendance was an average one, and, as
will be seen, the fields which contested the different events
were in most instances numerous. The sport, of which a
full return is appended, calls for no special comment :
Handicap Plato of 40 sovs, for all ages ; the winner to be
sold for 50 sovs. Five furlongs.

Mr. Guilsford's Ad; 2 yrs, 6st (Huxtable 6

Betting.-5 to 4 agst Professor Anderson, sto 1 aget
Danaus, and 6to 1 agst Holkar. Brown Doe was first off,
followed by Holkar and the favourite into the straight,
where Professor Anderson went to the front and won easily
by a length ; two lengths separated the second and third ;
Thais was a bad fourth. The winner was bought by Mr.
James Turner for 150 guineas.

Fairy Land, and Goldylocks, 100 to 7 agst Princess of
Wales, and 20 to 1 each agst Pink and Lufra. A long de-
lay occurred at the post in consequence of the anxiety of
several of the jockeys to get off. In the numerous breaks
away Vision, Papoose, and Goldylocks were most conspi-
cuous. At length a good start was effected, but in a few
strides Cedric showed slightly in front, his immediate fol-
lowers being Zisca, Papoose, and Gipsy Girl, who headed
the others to the commencement of the rails, where the
latter gave way, and, though Carroll made his effort to
reach Cedric, the latter maintained his advantage to the
end and won cleverly by three parts of a length; Papoose
was only beaten half a length from Zisca; Goldylocks was
fourth, close up with whom was Vision ; Molly Carew and
Liston being next, Blackbird and Gipsy Girl being the last
two.

Antoinette, and 100 to 15 agst Madame Walton. Betsy
Copeland made play, followed by Madame Walton, Sahara,
and Tilt for about half the distance, when the latter took
up the running, and, drawing away from the others at the
distance, won very easily by three lengths. A length
separated the second and third, and a similar distance the
third and fourth ; Antoinette was fifth, Danaus sixth,
Guildhall and Brown Doe being the last two.

No Name, Agnes, and Jesuista also ran.

Betting 2 to 1 agst Jesuista, 9 to 4 agst Farnborough, 5 to
1 agst Agnes, and 6to 1 agst Arleseott. Katie cut out tho
work, followed by Basilisk and Agnes, the others lying well
up, with the exception of Sly Fox,who was some fouror five
lengths in the rear. In this order they proceeded over th o fence
into the field on the far side, where Jesuista took up the run-
ning, followed by Arlescott and Katie. Whilst going along
the fiat the latter dropped rapidly into the rear. Approaching
the artificial brook, Jesuista held a clear lead, and Sly Fox
having drawn forward, was going on side by side with
Arlescott, Farnborough being close up with the pair, Katie
toiling on many lengths in the rear. They ran thus to the
far side, where Farnborough took the second place, but
shortly afterwards was headed by Sly Fox ; Arlescott still
following, well up. About three quarters of a mile from
the finish, Jesuista, when still leading, broke down, and
dropping rapidly astern was dismounted before reaching
the winning Bold. Upon the latter retiring Arlescott took
up the running, and was soon in possession of a long lead,
which he retained to the last fence, when Farnborough
came up with a wet sail, and, catching him at every stride,
a good race ensued from the half distance ; but, Farn-
borough never getting quite up, was defeated by a head.
Basilisk, pulling up, was a bad third, Sly Foxfourth, Katie
and No Name next. Agnes walked in, and did not pass
the post, and Jesuista,
whose jockey dismounted, walked
in with the crowd. An objection was lodged against the
winner, on the ground of Mr. Rickaby being a professional
jockey, and the matter was ordered to stand over for deci-
sion until 12 o'clock on Thursday.
