The meeting was brought to a most satisfactory con-
clusion. The supply of sport was not only larger than
on the two preceding days, but the racing was also of
more interest. The weather was again most favourable,
and the attendance was unusually numerous. The offi-
cials conducted the business with the most praiseworthy
promptitude. By the way, bookmakers were most un
fortunate, and scarcely got a " good turn" throughout
the meeting.
