SPORTING NOTES.
No. XCIX.
THE BRIGHTON STARES, &c.

TO THE. EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—llaving been used to see year after year the
most diminutive fields contesting the Brighton Stakes,
the rather large number of competitors that will be found
in the fray to-morrow will be a most delightful relief to
the mind and eye. As far as I can ascertain this morn-
ing seven-eighths of the following, if not the whole lot.
will muster at the starting-post, viz.:—Cossack, aged.
Bst 131 b; Backbiter, 6 yrs, Bst 21b, including 71b extra
for winning the Goodwood Stakes; Westow, 5 yrs, 7st
71b, including 51h extra; Glen Saddel, 6 yrs, 7st 41b;
Champion, 5 yrs, ist llb (d); Abdallah, 4 yrs, Tat;
Lord George, 6 yrs, 6st 131 b; Valentine, 4 yrs, 6st 101 b;
Gillyflower, 4 yrs, Est 101 b; Narcissus, 4 yrs, Est 41b;
Cna3us, 3 yrs, fist 21b (d); Sir Rowland Trenchard, 3
yrs, sst 121 b; Falcon, 4 yrs, sst 121 b; Grand Duke,
3 yrs, sst 101 b (d); Nautch Girl, 5 yrs, sst
41b; and Ingratitude, 3 yrs, 4st 101 b. I have
already given my opinion of their respective chances
which remains in every respect unaltered. The struggle
at the finish, I opine, will be between Westow 'Narcissus,
Falcon and Ingratitude • and, as I remarked' last week,
ending, in all probability in favour of WESTOW or
NARCISSUS; Falcon and Ingratitude well up, with
Backbiter and Cossack at the head of the ruck. The
Pavilion Stakes is a foregone conclusion in favour of
Mr. Payne's FREEDOM; I doubt whether anything will
run iu opposition, without Hampton's owner fancies a
go for the off-chance. From the market I should de-
duce what looks likely to prove a fact with respect to the
Cup, and that is, that not more than three will run for
it, and that PITSFORD or LANDGRAVE, the former for
choice, will turn out to be the trump
card on the day. More of this to-morrow.
The betting market is extremely. active this
morning, and a good deal of business has been
transacted at the following prices:—Pavilion Stakes-
-5t02 on Freedom; 5 to 2 agst Hampton. Brighton
Stakes-4 to 1 agst Narcissus; sto 1 each egst Westow
and Backbiter; 6 to 1 agst Cossack, (7 to 1 taken freely);

agst Sir Rowland Trenchard; 15 to 1 eget Glen Saddel;
15 to 1 agst Falcon; 20 to 1 apt Champion. Plenty of
offers to lay against The Grand Duke, who, I pre-
sume, will not run. Brighton Cup--5 to 4 agst Pita-
ford; 6 to 4 agst Landgrave; 5 to 1 agst St. Rosalie.

TATTERSALL'S—YESTERDAY.
Tho circle, as well as the subscription-room, was
thronged for several hours, but so much time was taken
up with the Goodwood settling, that very little businesa
was transacted on future events. Apart from paying
and receiving, the only " feature" was the appearance
of a new favourite for the St. Leger, in the person of
Hothorpe, a member of the Danebury lot: the outlay
on him was by no means extensive. Closing prices

wood Stakes. The letters which we have received on the
subject have been referred to our sporting reporter,. and
the following is his reply:—" I am deeply mortified end
