very good third. Run in im. 45sec.

The weather was favourable, and the company, from
the anxiety to see the new Derby favourite mako his
first appearance, larger than on either of the preceding
days. The entire interest of the racing centered in
one race, which, it will be seen came off in favour of
Nunnykirk, but not i❑ the style in which his admirers
had anticipated; this may be inferred from the betting
on the Derby-9 to 2 having been taken before the race,
and 6 to 1 laid after it. Offers to take sto 2 about
Flying Dutchman, and 6to 1 about Tadmor. Nunny_
kirk receded to 2 to 1 for the 2,000 Guinea Stakes, and
Honeycomb found favour at sto 2. The Metropolitan
betting shows no change, except in Lugar, who has been
backed at 6 to 1.

The Jockey Club have resolved that in future the en-
trance for plates shall not exceed three sovereigns. No-
thing has been settled with regard to the alterations on
,he race course.
