ODDS AND ENDS FROM NEWMARKET.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUIV.
SlR,—Lord Cliftien commenced the sport yesterday
by winning the 50/. Plate for all ages, over the last three
miles of the 8.C., with his H. R. H. filly, beating the
colt by Alarm, the Swtde, filly by Ugly Buck, Happy
Joe, M. Robin, Thistiew'nipper colt, Fle ur-deular to ally,
,
and Miss Bundy, at weight for age. Sing
there was no betting on the race, and it was, altogether:,
owe of the most curious ever witnessed. Lord Ogden s
filly won by a length, the rest were scattered in a line
over nearly a distance. In the D.M. 10 Sovs. Sweep-
t
stakes Mr. Greville's Greengage, with Nat up, bea
Cerito, Brother to Willingham, and Sir li.. 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 any notice.
After these stakes followed the great race of the d,,y,
the Cambridgeshire Stakes, which attracted the large
field of thirty-three to the post, being just about the
number I anticipated would be found 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 two lengths. The
race is easily described :—they wheeled into a tolerable
line, and immediately on the flag dropping, with one or
two exceptions, all gut well oil: Directly they had settled
into their places Tunic teak a slight lead, which he kept
almost to the Duke's stand, where Breba, who bad been
running close in his wake, was bee ten; almost imme-
diately afterwards Truth sprang to the front, followed
by Manifold, Fauxpas, Primo 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 lengths.
Manifold beaten a length for second place, Fauxpas a
short half-length in the rear of Manifold, and Hernandez
a bad fifth. Prime Minister and my other fancy, P.A.oun•
tarn Deer, were in the foremost part of the rude. New-
min6ter and Grecian, together with nearly all the
other cracks, were beaten ehamefully. 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 171bs 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
30,0001., 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 observed that " Newminster's
chance 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? lam inclined to think
that in the final struggle she will show a little of
her currish temper, and though possibly obtain-
ing a place will not turn out the winner."
John Day's lot I threw over altogether, and they
were accordingly overthrown in the race. Hereandez,
I remarked, would only run to be beaten, and Mokauna
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. 100/. 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 racing 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,
eetween 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.

the
all the running, and after a severe struggle UP
chords, won by a neck. This race was not timed.
There was a much greater company on
the heath
than we have seen forJtany years, and the great Meet
which to the ihtonse delight 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.
The race, it will be seen, is in abeyance, until the
wianes's mouth boa undergone AU examination.
