Further particulars of Thursday's Races.
p
Handicap Plate.—Sir Felix made the play to the bushes, where.
Adrian took it up, and went right away to the Duke's Stand, fol-
lowed by Hoogley -and D'Egville. Hoogley went up to Adrian
about half-way between the Stand and the post, headed him affer
running a few strides, and owing, as it appeared to us, to his having
stopt, won cleverly by two lengths. That all were placed by the
Judge is roof enough that the others hadquite enough of beating.
50 sovs. q Stakes.—Amima led till near the bushes, where Reel
went past her, followed by Diamentina, and won easy by a length
after a short race.
10 Sovs. Stakes.—The lot got away nearly abreast, and kept so
the greater part of the distance. Maid of the Mill broke from the
ruck a few strides before she reached the cords, followed by Ochil-
tree and Hilda, and, after a pretty race, won by a neck.
The matches were won cleverly, the Judge giving each by a
length.
Besides three for Friday, the following matches were made last
night for Saturday, which is likely to be a busy day :
Match, 200, h. ft. T. Y.C. —Mr. Thornhill's Egeria, Bst. 121 b.,

Match, 200, h. ft. First half of Ab. M.—Mr. Rogers's Minima,
Bst. 9.13., agst Duke of Richmond's Vale of Belvoir, fist 31'o.
The weather during the greater part of the day was gloomy, but
there was nothing beyond one slight shower about two o'clock to
diminish the attractions of an excellent list.
