SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET JULY MEETING.—TErnsDAY.

The extension of this meeting to four days has not had a
good effect on the sport. The events spread over the week
might well have been confined to the original three days of
which the July was formerly composed. The effect of the
alteration has been that the programme of to-day and yes-
terday, if ran at a country meeting, would have gone far to
ruin it. Fifty Pound Plates and Ten SOv.'Sveepstakes,
the weariest of plating form, has been the order of things,
and, with the exception of the July, - the Exeter, and the
Chesterfield Stakes, there has been really nothing to inte-
rest. We trust the Jockey Club will either .see the neces-
sity of providing better entertainment for man and horse,
or return to the old order of the three days. An additional
hardship this year'has been inflicted on one of the best
conducted and most flourishing of our country meetings,
Worcester, by its being brought into antagonism with that
at head quarters. The Chesterfield Stakes was the only event
worth encountering the oppressive heat of the day to see.
The Student, with a 71b penalty, was to prove if he had
any pretension to be considered a racehorse, the best of
public form opposed to him being Dalesman, Plutus, and
Jack-in-the-Green. He was about equal favourite with the
last-named, and before they had gone half the distance the
two singled themselves out and ran home, Mr. Merry's
colt, with always much the...best of it, winning very easily
by three lengths.

followed by Sister Mary, Principal, and Spice. These
positions were retained to the plantation corner, where they
closed and ran in a body to half-way down the hill, when
the Beatrix colt headed Lord Stamford's filly and won after
a slashing set-to by half a length. Spice and Wild Thyme
finished with a dead heat for third two lengths in their rear.

advance after they had proceeded a few strides pursued by
Valeria and Proserpine. Wide on their right in the centre
came Dalesman, Plutus, Jack in the Green, and Student,
and close in their rear the Rapid Rhone's dam colt and
Countess Amy. They ran thus into the bottom, where
The Student, in company with Jack in the Green and Lord
Glasgow's colt (the latter having run into his horses),
drew away and finished the race home. Student, who im-
proved his lead as he came on, won in a canter by two
lengths. Tbere were three lengths between the second and

when the former was beaten, and the running was• then
taken up by LordWestmoreland's filly, who tiring to nothing
as she came up the hill, was headed by Troublesome, who

Craven, and Admiral Rous, stewards ; Mr. Barne, Mr. Bat-
son, Count Batthyany, Duke of Beaufort, Lord Chesterfield,
Lord Falmouth, Sir J. Hawley, Lord Portsmouth, Mr.

It was proposed by the Duk of BEAITFORT, and seconded
by Admiral Roes, and unanimously resolved :
" That Captain H. Seymour, of Park-lane, Staines, be
elected by open voting an honorary member of the Jockey
Club, in acknowledgment of his great exertions and valu-
able services in promoting the prosperity of the Ascot
meeting."

The Stewards, having brought under the notice of the
meeting Mr. Blenkiron's donation of 1,000 sovereigns, to
be run at Newmarket next year by 2-yr-olds, proposed :
,4 That the thanks of the Jockey Club be offered to W.
Blenkiron, Esq., for his great liberality and public spirit in
encouraging the breed of racehorses."
Carried unanimously.

On the motion of Admiral Rous, seconded by the other
stewards, it was resolved to amend Rule XXXVII., con-
cerning horse- racing in general, by adding at lino, after the
words "for that purpose," the following :
" And if a jockey riding a beaten horse does not return
to weigh he shall be fined a sum of money not less than £lO
i
or exceeding £25, and if t can be proved that the owner or
trainer connived at this violation of the law they shall be
fined £25 each, and the horse shall be disqualified to run in
public until all the fines are paid."
Also, at the conclusion of the same rule, to add the words
" and no whip, or substitute for a whip, shall be allowed in
the scales."—Adjourned.
