ASCOT HEATH RACES.—FRIDAY.
The business and pleasure of the meeting were brought
to a close to-day, the attendance being almost entirely
confined to persons having more than a passing interest
in the proceedings.
The racing was extremely good, the contests being
decided twice by a head, once by a neck, and twice by
half a length. So far as the sport was concerned, this
was a brilliant termination to a brilliant meeting.
It will be seen that of the six races to-day three were
won by horses belonging to Lord Exeter, who, in the
course of the meeting had the good fortune to win seven
events, and all probability his lordship would have added
to the number had not Ilex bolted to-day after startin g
for her Majesty's Pate.
He was also six times second, including the gallant
contest with his horse Stockwell for the Emperor's
Vase. The success of so stanch and liberal a patron of
horse-racing was regarded with peculiar gratification by
the best friends of the turf.
In conclusion, we would award a full measure of
praise to the staff of officials for the very efficient dis-
charge of their respective duties.
The sport came off as follows :
FIRST CLASS OF THE WOKINGHAM STAKES of 5 soya.
