TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Slit,—The curtain has risen upon the racing drama
of '4B, with what effect upon the sport in general, or on
your readers' pockets in particular, time alone will
show.
The game begins in earnest to-morrow with the race
for the Guineas , which is truly called the key to the
Derby, the winner of the. Guineas' generally figuring as
premier favourite for the Derby, and almost invariably
getting a good place in that race, if not winning it.
There are nine races and five matches on paper for
to-day, four having to close 'and name last night; the
remaining five races being of no consequence whatever
as to future events or present interests, I shall say nothing
about any of them. '
To morrow's bill of fare is a goodly None, comprising,
the 2,000 Guineas Stakes, the Queen's Plate, the Coffee
Room Stakes, the 300 boys. Stakes, and tliree Sweep-
stakes to lose and narne,thvening.
'*'For the 2'1°;00 Guiittasct field4of about seven
twill eta% most probably the following, wit hose jocks
41113 whosenames I've attached:—
Lord Clifden's Loadstone Robinson.
Colonel Anson's Blaze F. Butler.
Mr. Hargreave's Sunnyside Cartwright.
Mr. Payne's Glendower
Mr. B. Green's Flatcatcher Edwards.
Major Pitt's Fern
Mr. Greville's Rosslyn (Doubtful).
Lord Exeter's dianthus W. Abdale.

The starting of the latter two is rather dubious;
Xanthus may be superseded by Swordplayer, and
Rossiya by Cervus ; moreover, it is not at all improba-
ble but that Messrs. Payne and Greville may reserve
Glendower for the Derby, and send Rosslyn or Cervus
only for the Guineas'.
Should Glendower and Loadstone start, to one or
other I look for the winner; if called upon to place them
I should do so in the following order :
Glendower
Load stone
Blaze
Although the distance suits Fern, Rosslyn, and Flat-
catcher, I cannot believe that they have any pretensions
to beat Glendower or Loadstone ; Sunnyside will find
the pace too good. Derby speculators look out—now 's
the time to make your game : for, mark me, Tuesday's
race will annihilate same heavy Derby " pots."
With respect to the 1,000 Guineas and -Newmarket
Stakes I shall send you the latest state of affairs at New-
market to-morrow evening.
I conclude with a list of probable results :
