SPOR7ING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET HOUGHTON MEETING—TUESDAY.
After a boisterous night the morning broke mildly, but
gentle showers fell occasionally during a tolerably fine day.
The early hon.r fixed for the first race (11.10) caused much
complaint among those who wished to settle their Monday's
account, and the great number of items on the card was
subject to much comment, not only with habitual race-
goers, but with casual visitors, who had arrived expressly
to see the decision Of the last monster handicap of the sea-
son, but found, to their surprise, that it would not take
place until a shne, tit-3e herure the .Hades of evcatag
have sat in, and themselves be hastening towards the rail-
way for their homeward journey.
Betting in the Subscription-rooms on the previous even-
ing had taken a wide range, the most noticeable features
being the advance of Hartington and Gorse, while Lapidist
and Oberon had a great number of friends ; the three
favourites were stationary, both overnight and in the morn-
ing, but before the first three races had been run Myrtle
settled into the position of first favourite,
The attendance on the Heath was large, but by no means
equal to that of the Cassarewitch day, when the weather
was more genial; the turf, however, was in good condition,
and when the immense field met at the post for the Cam-
bridgeshire it looked green and fresh with the small rain
that was falling. The lateness of the hour prevented our
hearing who are the chief winners, but we should say that,
with the exception of the immediate friends of Lord Ches-
terfield, no gentlemen have won large sums. The last race
was seen by few, as a rush was made for the special train,
without waitingto see the close of the running.
Fifty Pounds, for 2-yr-olds and upwards; weight for age.
The winner to be sold for 300 guineas. Last three miles

Conundrum lying in the centre made the running at a
strong pace, followed by Hilly Grove, Oakapple, Hampton
Court, Fois de arras, and Belle of Yorkshire, the others,
headed by Harleston, lying close in the track, with the ex-
ception of Ma Belle, who was tailed off before they had gone
a quarter of a mile. With little or no alteration they ran
thus across to the turn of the lands, where Conundrum's
lead sensibly diminished, and half way up the hill he, in
company with Fois de Gras, dropped back, leaving Anfield
with the lead, who in a few strides after was joined by Oak-
apple, the pair coming on together, the latter getting up in
the last stride and winning by a head. Hilly Grove was a
bad third, Hampton Court fourth, a long way in their rear
came Belle of Yorkshire, Fois de Gras, Harleston, and the
Wild Duck colt, all pulling up. Ma Belle, who was outpaced
frcm the start, walked in some time after.
