TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—Lord Clifden commenced the sport yesterday
by winning the 501. Plate for all ages, over the last three
miles of the 13 C., with his H. R. H. filly, beating the
colt by Alarm, the Swede, filly by Ugly Buck, Happy
Joe, M. Robin, Thistlewhipper colt, Fleur-de-lis fitly,
and Miss Bundy, at weight for age. Singular to say,
there was no betting on the race, and it was, ahogether,
ono of the most curious
yeasitoeed. Lord Cl&len's
filly won by a length, the were scattered in a line
over nearly a distance. In the D.M. 10 Soya. S weep-
stakes Mr. Greville's Greengage, with Nat up, beat
Cecito, Brother to Willingham, aud Sir R. Pigott's
Touchstone colt, by a length, cleverly. The winner, I
believe, was not claimed at the selling price of 2001.
The 15 and 10 Soya. Stakes do not require Dirty notice.
After these stakes followed the great race of the &yr,
the Cambridgeshire Stakes, which attracted the large
field of thirty-three to the post, being just about the
number I anticipated would be fourid there. Mr. Phil-
lip's Truth, 3 yrs, sst 131 b, an extreme outsider, only
backed in a few rare instances, with that clever little
jeckey Wells up, won somewhat easily by twolengths. The
race is easily described :—they wheeled into a tolerable
line, and immediately on the flag dropping, with one or
two exceptions, all got well off. Directly they had settled
into their places Tonic took a slight lead, which
had been he kept
almost to the Duke's stand, where Breba,
who
running close in his wake, was beaten; almost imme-
diately afterwards Truth sprang to the front, followed
by Manifold, Fauxpas, Pt ime Minister, and several
others in a cluster, among whom was Candlewick;
Ariosto shortly afterwards came out, made his best
effort, and was finally beaten by Truth by two lengtshs.
Manifold beaten a length for second place, Fauxpa a
short half-length in the rear of Manifold, and Hereandez
a bad fifth. Prime Minister and my other fancy, Moun-
tain Deer, were in the foremost part of the ruck. New-
minster and Grecian, together with nearly all
the
other cracks, were beaten shamefully. I was not
lucky enough to name the absolute winner, but
shall take the credit to myself of being the only
one of the prophetic seven who selected Ariosto
as the probable winner of this race. He ran a very
game and good second, considering he gave 17Ibs to one
of his own year. It is reported that the Leviathan and
several of the great City and West-end houses, together
with nearly all the bookmakers in the Ring, have thrown
in for large stakes. Davis's winnings:. is said to exceed
30.000 t, a nice wind up for the season. The majority
of my remarks, published in my analysis of this race,
have been verified to the letter, more particularly so in the
following instances :—I observed that " Newminster's
chanc® is by no means of a first-class character; when
called upon at the finish, the hill and pace will shut him
up." Respecting Breba, I said " the money that has
been put upon this mare, both by the stable and the pub-
lic is immense—where will it go? I m
a inclined
little to think
that in the final struggle sne will show a of
her currish temper, and though possibly obtain-
her
a place will not turn out the
John Day's lot I threw over altogether, and they
were accordingly overthrown in the race. Heroandez,
I remarked, would only run to be beaten, and Mokanna
was too slow. After the race the stewards were called
upon to have the winner's mouth examined, which ac-
cording to general opinion is supposed to be a very fri-
volous exception. The sports of the day were con-
cluded by Mrs. Taft attempting to give a stone and a
half to Tophans, in the D. I. 1001. Handicap Plate,
which of course she could not accomplish, although the
race was a very severe one, having been won by a neck
only. This proves that Mrs. Tates facing capabilities
have been much underrated of late. The attendance of
the aristocracy and the masses was almost unprecedented,
the interest excited on the Cambridgeshire being im-
mense. In the Post Match for 3001., run to-morrow,
tetween three of Lord Exeter's, and three of the Duke
of Bedford's fillies, the filly by St. Martin out of Amima
having arrived at Newmarket, the race will probably fall
to her. The nominations for the Nursery Stakes amount
to fifty three, but as the acceptances will not be de-
clared in time for this epistle, my remarks on them
will appear to-morrow.

than we have seen for wary years,

which to the intense de!ight of the fielders, was carried
off by an animal of whom no mention was made in the
ring, excited extraordinary interest up to the last.
Toe race, it will be seen, is in abeyance, until the
wianeen Imo/ has undergone an examination.
