NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING MEETING.
Further particulars of Friday's Races.
Handicap (First Class).—Anne Boleyn took the lead, followed
by Bracelet and Fawn filly to the new ground, where the latter
took it up, Bracelet waiting on her ; near the finish she went up,
and, after a sharp struggle, won by half a length. Mahometan was
beat off a long way, nor did The Colonel's filly cut a very good figure.
Match, Troilus and The Carpenter.--Troilus made strong run-
ing till near the cords; here The Carpenter went up, raced with
him half way lip them, looked well for a few strides, but dropped
off near the chair, and was beaten off half a length.
Match, Grey Momus and Bamboo.—This match was made under
an impression on Lord Suffield's part that Bamboo's defeat on
Tuesday was owing to the badness of the pace. The betting was
very heavy at 5 to 2 on the Grey, 3;000 to 100 being laid against
Bamboo for the Derby before starting.
To test the running on Tuesday, Bamboo went off at score, the
Grey, reversing the order of Tuesday's running, lying at least a
couple of lengths behind him. They held these places to the
bushes, where it was obvious that Bamboo had no chance. The
Grey now drew upon him, was clear of him before he reached the
cords, and won much easier than on Tuesday by two honest lengths.
The course, a mile and a yard in length, was run in one minute and
fifty seconds. The result, without advancing the Grey in the
Derby betting, sent Bamboo to the right about.
Match, Caravan and Rat-trap.—The race was very severely con-
tested up the cords, Rat-trap, who had made all the running,
winning by a neck only. Caravan was beaten easily for the Pert
Stakes by Rat-trap at even weights, and now, giving 71b, runs him
to a neck ; the difference of the course will, perhaps, account for it.
Newmarket Stakes.—Daedalus jumped off in front, at a splitting
pace, Beetian and Beggarman lying dose up. Long before they
reached the cords Romania declined, Daedalus following her example
on reaching them. The race now became exceedingly interesting
between Bcetian and Beggarman, the former, however, having his
head in front, and advantage which, with very great difficulty, he
maintained to the end, but so long and close was the contest, that
the race was never won till the last stride. Daedalus was beaten
three or four lengths. Before starting Beggarman was backed for
the Derby at 50 to 1.
The Handicap ( Second Class) was beautifully contested by the
first three from beginning to end, and won by a head only.
The following was the state of the betting at the close of the
week :

The meeting in every respect answered the expectations of those
interested in its success. The sport was not only intrinsically good
but productive of the most important effects on the Derby and
Oaks betting. The weather was delightful, and the attendance
full and fashionable.
The following horses have left Newmarket for Epsom :—Lord
Chesterfield's Davie Gellatley, Lord Wilton's Sister to Bamfylde,
and Mr. Bowes's Jagger. Hornsea has left the same place for
Bretby, accompanied by the Derby colt, out of Tranby's dam.
