marked, has had a drooping tendency. In colonial wool,
by private contract, a moderate business is doing, at about
stationary prices. The best series of sales will be com-

SPORTING NOTES,

The meetings last week were remarkable for the advance
of Gladiatour in the quotations for the Goodwood Cup, and
the increased support awarded to Claremont for the Good-
wood Stakes. The forward position obtained by Moose in
the Burghley Handicap makes him look like the most
trustworthy of Tom Parr's lot. The state of the weather
at Stamford on Thursday morning had an injurious effect
upon the general attendance, which was far below the
average ; and the afternoon turning out very wet, marred
the enjoyment of what under more favourable auspices
would have been a capital day's sport, however inauspi-
ciously it may be said to have commenced with so small a
field for the opening race, and a walk over " to follow."
Only three of the five and twenty entered went to the post
for the 'Westmoreland Plate, aad though the distance (a
mile) was generally supposed to be too far for Cutaway, she
had slightly the call of Troublesome at 211 b, as much as
100 to 8 being offered against their solitary opponent,
Sundeelah, who did the fielders such a good turn on his
last appearance in the Londesborough Cup at York,
in the spring, which he won, beating eleven
others. Cutaway's success was never in doubt, and she
verified her appellation by cutting out the work from start
to finish, winning with apparently so much in hand that
she was very naturally made the favourite for the Borough
Members' Plate, which followed Siberia's walk over during
a heavy storm for the Doncaster St. Leger. A 51b. penalty
increased Cutaway's weight to 7st 71b ; but as the shorter
distance (five furlongs) was considered to be all in her
favour,. this was regarded by her owner as groat a " cer-
tainty" as the previous race, and as none of her opponents
were backed with troy spirit, the field had only a slight
call of Mr. Barber's mare. To Mr. B.'s astonishment, how-
ever, Cutaway appeared to run slow, and was never in the
race, which resulted in the victory of Desiree, after a close
struggle with Sundeelah, who, in J. Snowdon's hands,
not only performed better than when ridden by his
stable boy, but beat his previous conqueror much
farther than she beat him when carrying only 51b less
weight. Mr. Barber (who bet close upon £2OO on Cut-
away this time) was far from satisfied with his mare's per-
formance, and although Ward had weighed for Helen for
the Burleigh Handicap before Jimmy Grimshaw arrived
from Abingdon, Mr. Ti. put up the latter on finding him
disengaged, and from the favourable terms upon which
she was handicapped, Mr. Barber was again made favourite
Helen's opponents consisted of Stanton, Raglan, Breda-
mante (51b extra, which told in the heavy ground), Clax-
ton, Moose, Privateer, Aurrcula, and Verdant ; Sir Roger,
who was a favourite at the lists in town, being an absentee,
owing to his having been tried and "found wanting" at
the close of the previous week, though a different version
of the trial, it seems, got abroad. At first, as little as 4to
1 was taken about Moose, but he declined to 100 to 15 at
starting, to which price Privateer advanced after the pre-
paratory canter, in which he went so much better than any-
thing that the public quite took to him. And the result bore
out their excellent judgment, as he made all the runuingat a
good pace, and after a show of a finish with Mr. Parr's horse,
won by a length, Helen, who looked as well as anything
up to the distance, finished a bad third. This is the first
handicap of any consequence that Mr. Savile has won
since the Metropolitan, with Parmesan, in 1861, and his
success pleased everybody ; though he was unfortunately
stalled off backing the winner for any amount by those who
had previously ridden Privateer stigmatising him as "a
slow horse, with only one pace." Mr. Savile accordingly
took ten ponies and eight fifties only about the winner,
and "covered" the outlay by backing Moose for the latter
amount ! Privateer was tried a good horse last spring, and
backed for a largo stake for the Derby, and in the Craven
meeting ran Tomato to a neck in the Bennington Stakes, I
giving her 31b ; but having a temper he was afterwards

operated upon, and has now evidently got back to his form.
Five of the half-dozen entered went to the post for the
Rutland Stakes, a half-mile selling race for two-year-olds,
and Master Shutt, on the strength of his Chelmsford run-
ning, was a "pot," which Fordham only just landed by the
shortest of heads, after a slashing set-to with a Colster-
dale filly belonging to Mr. George Fitzwilliam (who was
first in the next stride past the post) and Bismarck
Another field of five came out for the succeeding Fifty
Sovereigns Sweepstakes for two year olds, including a
couple of " dark" youngsters in Bugler, by Trumpeter out
of Bohemienne, and Othello, by Fazzoletto out of Maid of
Newton, neither of whom pleased the cognoscenti, though
Mr. Payne's colt was introduced with a fanfitron as being
101 b better than Staghound. Their opponents wore Chibisa
(71b extra), Amazon, and Lucifer, and though it looked
"any odds" on Lord Stamford's daily-improving colt, the
fielders, on the strength of the outlay on Bugler, took 6 to
4 "kindly," thereby enabling the gentlemen to get all their
previous losses back, with something to the good, as the
winner's success was never in doubt. On the Welter Cup,
which followed, they caught a "nose-ender," however, as the
" dead certainty" it looked on paper for Tippler led to high
odds being betted on him. His opponents were Warrior
and Red Earl, both of whom " bested" the favourite ; and
the poor pace at which the race was run serving tho " roar-
ing grey," he won cleverly; the finish between the three
accomplished amateurs "up" on this occasion being almost
as fine as between Fordhara, Goater, and T. French in the
Rutland previously. The fineness of the weather on
Friday drew a much larger attendance than on the first
day, but there was little improvement in the sport, as the
fields, except in ono instance, were small.
There are seven meetings this week, viz., Nottingham,
Cambridge, Southampton, Aldershot, Winchester, Chester-
field, and Stourbridge. The Nottingham Handicap has
25 horses engaged, the best of which are Spring Gun and
The Monk. Tho Bradgate Handicap should be won by
Moulsey, and the Sherwood Handicap by Little Goy or
°Horton. The half-mile Stand Plato either Hesper or
Cranbury should win, who aro both well suited to the dis-
tance. The Chesterfield Handicap will go to either Pri-
vateer or Moulsey, and the Bunnoy Park Stakes to Miss
Harriette. King Hal ought to dispose of the moderate lot
opposed to him in the Rufford Abbey Stakes. In the Hamp-
shire Stakes I shall look forward to the success of Polies ;
and Robin Hood, if brought out, cannot fail to secure the
Winchester Biennial.
