GOODWOOD RACES.--WEDNEshar.
Our return of Tuesday's racing, forwarded from the
ground, if not so fully in detail as we could have wished, or
as its importance merited—and for which our apology must
be, the difficulty of securing the receipt of our dispatches in
tune to be available for publication on the following day—
Will have shown that the sport was of a first-rate description,
realising to the winners 9,0001., and leaving the spectators
nothing to desire. The Craven Stakes failed to produce a
race; only three horses were named, and the Duke of Rich-
mond and Lord Geo, Bentinck having divided Mr. Greville's
forfeit, Dawdle walked over, and at one o'clock business com-
menced in earnest with the Gratwicke Stakes ; seven others
followed, and, although the gentlemen jockeys. as usual, took
it easy, and of course were at least a quarter of an hour
behind time in each of their races, so well did the profes-
sionals second the exertions of their starters, that Mr.
Clarke's fiat on the last event was given within three minutes
of the time appointed in the list.
We cannot say that the company was so large or so aristo-
cratic, or that there was 150 much life in the scene as we have
witnessed at former meetings, nor was the betting by any
means brisk; excessive closeness of the atmosphere, no
doubt, caused a disinclination to encounter the beat and
pressure of the " ring," and may account for the comparative
flatness of speculation. The business of the meeting, as we
intimated last week, was carried on in the ground floor of the
Grand Stand, hitherto used for refreshment, and a great con-
venience it was to those who had not time or the means to
mount two pair of stairs. The new offices are cool and
spacious, and so well adapted to the purpose required that we
question if the contemplated new weighing-stand will be
erected. Mr. Careless, and several other caterers of less emi-
nence, "pitched" their tents above the enclosure, and offered
every temptation for the indulgence of the appetite ; we
would suggest, however, that a small refreshment. room
should be provided as near the enclosure as possible; every-
thing at Goodwood is " against time," and those who are
able to secure a sandwich in the short interval between
the races, may consider themselves thrtunate—tor a betting
-man to-run up to the second floor or half way downsthe
diiiinee for this purpose is out of the question. We must
conclude our resume of the first day by stating that although
the down trains on Monday were one and all considerably
behind time, the specials were arranged with as much punc-
tuality as a single line of railway would admit of, greatly to
the accommodation of the public, and without any con-

tingency of consequence. -
With the second day necessity obliges us to deal briefly.
The races, according to the original anncuncement, should
have commenced at twelve o'clock • instead of this, the match
between Growl and So Nice. which it was known would not
come off, was fixed for one, and the running in consequence
did not commence until half-past one. The change, we pre-
sume, was made for " honourable members." The card to be
got through embraced eight races, most of them with large
fields, arid it was not therefore until near six o'clock that the
company were enabled to get away from the course; they
were thus an hour and a half on the ground longer than they
anticipated, amid the Metropolitans, instead of reaching tl e
London-bridge station at nine, could not have been
' delivered" b, fore eleven. It is unnecessary—in fact time
will not permit us—to give more than a mere sketch of the
sport. It was highly interesting from first to last, and
afforded ample scope for speculation. The weather was ex-
tremely favourable, but intensely hot, and the company
larger and more respectable than on the first day.

place was taken by Jet icho, Sir George and Alarm directly
after him, becoming third and fourth. At the distance Wolf-
dog was joined by the favourites, and beaten instanter, and
Jericho went on with a slight lead of the crack, the two being

tested with great severity to the end, Alarm never obtaining
the advantage until near the chair, and then winning only by
a head. Nothing was near the two. Run in 5 min. 39 sec.

The Hero lying in the rear with Red Robin, Alamode, and
others, of the heavy division. They ran thus at a "split-
ting" pace to the top of the hill in going out, where Ima
showed in front and went on with the running almost round
the hill to the last turn. The Hero then took the com-
mand, and with Dulcet, Jonathan Wild, Camera Obscure,
Giantess, and Red Robin, laid'up, cut out the work to the
stand, where Jonathan Wild challenged, reached him close
to the chair, and won a race, equal in severity to that for the
Orange Prize, by a neck. Red Robin a bad fourth, and
Giantess fifth. The race was very severe from end to end,
and the tailing "prodigious." Run in five minutes, ten
