NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING MEETING.—TVESDAY.

The race for the 2,000 guineas proved, as was anticipated,
unusually attractive, and drew together a larger assemblage
than we have witnessed for many years on a similar occasion.
There were numerous arrivals on the preceding evening, but
the " rush " on the morning was prodigious, including a
large accession by special train, foremost among whom were
the Duke of Beaufort, and Lord George Bentinck, who
reached the town before twelve o'clock. The betting circle
was extensive, but the hopes of many, who were against the
" crack," were sadly damped by the declaration, at twenty
minutes after ten that lago had been scratched. This brought
Tom Tullock in great force, and he was greedily backed at evens
against the field, and subsequently, as will be seen, at six and
seven to four on him. Tibthorpe was second favourite, and
many got on to five to one, at which price a good deal was
done. Bill Scott having eviuced unshrinking confidence on
the heath in the morning, declaring he would win, end no-
thing less, a confidence which it will he seen was full v sus-
tained by the result. Green Pea and King Charles had also
been admired, but Scott v. Scott occupied the vantage ground
throughout. The first race was appointed for ones
o'clock, and by this time the assemblage on the
heath was immense, including many equipages of families of
distinction, and carriages of all descriptions : the equestrians
were bey and all calculation, and the excitement, as usual,
extraordinary. The first race was quickly disposed of, by
the victory of the Duke of Rutland's Alexa over the two
favourites. The next race for the Queen's Plate for mares
over the Rowley Course derived additional interest from
Mr. Osbaldeston riding his own mare, Sorella. At first
the field had the call of Miss Elis, but it being soon
ascertained that three only would • start she rose in
favour, and 5 and 6 to 4 was laid on her. The
Squire rode with great " pluck" to the stand, and looked
like a winner, but Nat then put his shoulder to
the wheel and won, but not without being driven almost over
the ropes, by a length.
The great race of the day came next in rotition, and was
preceded by the accustomed noisy agitation ii: the ring—
Tom Tullock being backed at 6 and 7 to 4 on him, and Tib-
thorpe at 5 to 1; Green Pea at 5 and 6 to 1, but with few
friends. Of the race we have given full particulars here-
after. It is only necessary to say the verdict was in fiorour
of Tibthorpe, who won cleverly by three parts of a length
amidst the vociferous acclamations of the " Bill Scotian" dy-
nasty, who were considerable winners, and-to the utter dis-
may of those who had held on to the rocket by which
Tom Tullock had been raised to an enviable-height, only to
fall like the stick. The sports concluded with the Coffee-
room Stakes, won in a canter by Paragone, and the defeat
of Fusbos by the Duke of Rutland's Leopard. The weather
was favourable throughout, the sport abundant, and all, ex-
cept the losers, retired highly gratified with the day's amuse-
ments. In addition to other distinguished visitors on the
heath, we may mention Prince George of Cambridge, who
came by the special train.
Subsequent to the race for the 2,000 Guineas Stake, Lord
Maidstone, we understand, called upon the stewards to have
Tibthorpe's mouth examined, and it will be done to morrow
morning; meanwhile, the stakes are withheld. We have
only time and space to describe the races as they cam e offs
and to add that in the betting Tom Tullock was sent "to the
right about," and Tibthorpe took bis place for the Dersbys
being backed at 8 to 1-4 to 1 taken against Sting.
The following are details of the racing :

a length. Caroline ran out at the corner of the plantatiouesci

Betting-13 to Bon Tom Tullock, sto 1 agst Green Pea,
5 to 1 agst Tibthorpe, and 10 to 1 agst King Charles.
Radulphus went away with a slight lead, followed by
Green Pea and Tibthorpe, and by this trio the front viol
maintained for nearly half a mile; King Charles then showen
in front (against his rider's will, we suspect) and maths play
to the bushes, where he fell back, and the favourite took uP
the running, Tibthorpe and the Galata colt lying close ups
and nothing else having a chance. The three ran together
into the bottom and three parts up the hill, by which timo
the Galata colt had enough of it ; Tibthorpe now closed with
the favourite, headed him a few strides from home, and won
cleverly by three parts of a length ; the Galata colt a bad
third. The race was run in 1 minute and 57 seconds.
lago was declared not to start at twenty minutes past ten
