SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

CHELMSFORD SUMMER MEETING.
WEDNESDAY.

A more glorious day could not have been desired for the
celebration of the sport which came off yesterday on Galley-
wood Common. The meeting clashing with Manchester and
Wye was an unfortunate thing for its success, and the
attendance consequently showed a marked falling off in
comparison with last year. The home stables were of
course represented, but many Northerners who would have
sent candidates were busily occupied at the Cottonopolis.
The Stand and enclosures were moderately filled, the fielders
being so strongly represented that the most zealous had to
be unusually industrious to find customers. The sport was
of the ordinary character, and calls for no special comment.
The Two-Year-Old Stakes was won by a very promising
looking colt, called Cecrops, who upset the pot which was
put on Cesarowitch. The Chelmsford Handicap was in
favour of the gentlemen, who mostly stood Lucky Star, who
won, after a fine finish with The Eland. Full details are
appended . _ _

The Trial Stakes of 5 sovs each, with 50 added, for all
ages; weight for age; with maiden and selling allow-
ances. Three-quarters of a mile.

Mr. John Graham's Truant, 2 yrs, 6st (£100) (Elphick 3

Betting-6 to 4on Menace, and 2to 1 agst Truant.
Camillus made play, with Menace in close attendance,
until half way up the distance, when the favourite took
the lead, and won easily by a length. Truant, who broke
a blood-vessel, walked in third. There was no advance on
the selling price of the winner.

The Great Baddow Two-yr-old Stakes of 10 sovs each,

Cairngorm, The Squire, and Mary Hill also ran.
Betting-6 to son Cesarewitch, sto 1 each agst Cecrops
and Pinchbeck, 8 to 1 agst Cairngorm, and 10 to 1 agst Mary
Hill. A long delay occurred at the post, chiefly caused by
the fractiousness of Mary Hill, who eventually jumped the
bank and rails and threw Deacon, who fortunately was not
hurt. Cairngorm jumped away with the lead, Cesarewitch
close up, followed by Cecrops, The Squire bringing up the
rear. After going about 200 yards Cecrops took up the run-
ning and headed Cesarewitch. Halfway up the hill Cairn-
gorm gave way to Pinchbeck, who, however, failedto reach
the two leaders, Cecrops defeating Cesarewitch cleverly by
three-quarters of a length ; three lengths separated the
second and third. Cairngorm was fourth, Tho Squire fifth,
and Mary Hill last.
The Galleywood Stakes of 5 sovs each, with 40 added, for
all ages ; weight for ago ; with selling allowances.

Betting-6 to 4on the Lady Avon filly, and 100 to 30
each agst Usher and The Leader. The Leader held a mo-
mentary advantage, but was quickly deprived of the lead
by the Lady Avon filly, who carried on the running to the
distance, where Usher came out, and ran home an easy
winner by three lengths; the leader a bad third. The
winner was bought in for 100 guineas.
The Chelmsford Handicap of 15 sovs each, 5 ft, with 100
added ; winners extra ; about 7 furlongs. (49 subs., 19

8 to 1 each agst King George and Quarantine, 10 to 1 agst
Erin-go-Bragh, and 20 to 1 agst Sister Mary. After a trifling
delay a good start was effected, Lucky Star with a slight
lead making play, followed by Quarantine and The Eland,
wide of whom followed troublesome on the near side, the
nick being brought up by King George and Quill. They
ran with little variation till nearing the distance, where
The Eland headed Lucky Star, with whom Quarantinewas
close up. Within the distance the three placed drew away
from the others, and though half way up the rails The
Eland appeared to have the best of the struggle. Lucky
Star ran the longest, and " coming" again in the last few
strides won a fine race by a neck ; Quarantine was a bad
third, a wide interval separating him from Troublesome,
King George, and Erin-go-Bragh, who were in a cluster in
the order named. Quill was seventh, and Sister Mary last.
The Marks Hall Stakes of 5 sovs each, with 25 added, for
two-year-olds ; colts, Bst 101 b ; fillies, Bst 71b ; the win-

Betting-6 to 5 agst Maid of Usk, 7t04 on Catherine,
and 6to 1 agst Truant. Maid of Usk cut out the work,
followed by Frileuso and Catherine, but the Maid was never

second and third. The winner was bought in for
.170 gs.
