ALL SORTS.

The Cannobie case, and the severe comments whici
have been made on it, are calculated to exercise a per-
nicious influence on the Turf. The high social position
of the gentlemen who sat in judgment on that case pre-
clude the idea that they would designedly record an nr.
just decision, yet if the representations which have bee.
made to me be true both justice and plain-dealing have
been daringly defied by the disqualification of Saraban
for the Burwell Stakes. Evidence of a most conclusivr
character was, perhaps, placed before the Stewards, and.
if this supposition be correct, why not place the full par
ticulars before the public People dislike the Stat
Chamber practice adopted by the Jockey Club, and re-
gard with suspicion the secrecy which is maintained it
dealing with disputed cases. At the instance of Mr
Howard, who is part proprietor of Saraband, Mr. Pedle)
served the stakeholder with a notice not to pay over thi
stakes to the owner of Cannobie, and it is therefore pro-
bable that the requisite " disclosures " will be made in
a court of law.

Much diversity of opinion exists with regard to Can-
noble's running for the Burwell Stakes, some persons
maintaining that the horse tired on ascending the hill
and others that be would have won easily enough haO
his rider possessed the power and the tact to get him)
out. To this latter opinion lam inclined to subscribe,
and I have no hesitation in recording my convictiol
that the one that can beat him can win the Derby.
Turfites were somewhat startled from their propriety
last week by a rumour to the effect that both Yellov.
Jack and The Coroner had been sold for 12,0001., witt,
certain contingencies. The report was not without four, •
dation, and although the horses are likely to remain az
Findon until after the Derby, it is not improbabli tha
the bargain is already c)neluded, and that the horse
are now the property of Mr. C. 11. Carew. The sal,
has exercised a depressing effect upon both Yellow Jacl
and The Coroner. pe•iple buingdieinolined to back then
until the uncertainty with which they are at presen.
surrounded is removed. Wentworth has steadily riser
in favour ; he has cleared out the whole lot of the Dane
bury youngsters. At least such is the report. Fly•by-
Night seems quite gone, and no hopes are entertainer'.
that he will "come again." People, therefore, are
growing sweet on Sugar Plum, a fine bright chesnut
but in my opinion he is only introduced into the market
for time serving, money-getting motives.

Metropolitan sportsmen are already en route to York,
where, if the promi,e which the programme c intains tn.
fulfilled, the sport will be sufficiently interesting t
compensate them for their long and tedious journp3
Saunter. r will be " put upon his mettle" to defeat a,.
opponents likely to be brought against him fur the Ze: -
laud Stakes. From the spice of his qualty which he
gave us at amcaster, however, I a,n induced to antici-
pate his succesii. Should he be beaten, either Mag-
nifier or Madame Clicquot may be the winner.
One Act has been freely backed for both the Grea:
Northern and Chester Cut. I, however, would rath,r
watch the of the \Voodyate's " pots" than assisT,
to stir them. Fandango has proved himself a rue-
horse of first-class pretensions, and I shall couple hin
with The Earl to represent my interest.
From the fifty-two nominations for the Londeshoroug'
Cup, I shall select klospodar, Bourgeoise, Berezina, are
Ghika.

Should repert be true, and Ellington be brought on'
for the Biennial Stakes for three-yr•olds, I shall expec,
him to achieve an easy victory. If, however, ho be in-
capable of pulling through, or should he even win in
slovenly manner, few people will afterwards be inclined
to " stand him" for the Derby.

Unless the dark division contain a "flyer" I see
nothing to beat Red White and Blue and Apathy for the
Biennial Stakes for two-yr-olds.

Uzelia is said to be a "rare good thing" for The Flying
Dutchman's Handicap. I shall not express an opinion
on the event, because the result will be regulated by to-

morrow's racing.

The Malton Meeting, as usual, will form an agreeable
" pendant" to the gathering at York, and many persons
will be induced to assist at its celebration in order to
obtain an opportunity of taking stock of the Whitewall
horses. Marmion will, perhaps, win the Two-yr-old
Stakes. Cossey or Bracken may carry off the Malton
Handicap. It would be absurd to make a guess at the
result of the other events.
