SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
HAMPTON RACES.7—WEDNEsDAY.

There was nothing particularly inviting in the card for
the first day; indeed, in that essential to small meetings,
quantity, it was sadly deficient, and so little pains had
been taken to make the public acquainted with its merits,
that the attendance, fine as the weather turned out, was
very thin. If; however, we cannot congratulate lessees
upon their exertions to promote sport, we must give them
credit for two or three decided improvements on the
course. In the first place, they have, with much judg-
ment, placed the weighing-booth immediately above
and on the same side as the betting-stand; it is consi-
derably enlarged, and being enclosed offers every facility
for the transaction of business. The betting-stand is now
one of the most convenient we have seen at a minor meet-
ing; the steps are carried down to the ground, and it has
the long wished-for accomodation of an enclosure, not a
very extensive one, but quite large enough fur the pur-
pose. We hail these, and some other improvements of
less consequence, as evidences of a better spirit than has
been shown of late years in this quarter, and shall be
glad to have an opportunity of announcing the inten-
tions of the powers that be to place the meeting in other
respects on a better footing; there is much room for
amendment.

We subjoin an outline of the racing, which it will
scarcely be credited, was over before five o'clock. The
bill of tare for this day comprises the Queen's,Plate and
two other races in heats, the Claremont Stakes for two
year olds, and the Scurry Stakes, gentleman riders;
there will be enough and to spare, and in order to get
through it by daylight the first start will be at one
o'clock precisely.
The Railway Plate of 20/., added to a Sweepstakes of 5
sovs. each; three yrs old, 7st 71b; four, Bst 10lb; five,

Louisa Newell made all the running, followed alternately

the distance. Self-Defence then went up to her, and
they raced home together, the mare winning by a head;
Tarella a bad third. Run in 3 min. 56 sec.

4to 1 agst Mountain Dew, and sto 1 agst Valiant. A
very close race between Mountain Dew, Valiant, and
Kimblesworth; Mountain Dew, who made all the running
winning by a head, Guaracha a bad fourth. Lord Strath-
more, who rode Valiant, thought he had won, and many
in the stand were of the same opinion; those, however,
who were stationed immediately behind or opposite the
chair spoke to the correctness of the decision, and we
have no doubt it was right. Run in 2 min. 17 secs.
