NEWMARKET HOUGHTON MEETING.
Newmarket, Monday Night.
The following are additional particulars of the Criterion
Stakes :—Of course there were plenty of false starts; to ex-
pect otherwise in a two year old race at Newmarket would
be unreasonable. In the first two attempts all got off well ex-
cept Gipsy, who could not be prevailed upon to move ; Burden
then turned " obstropulous," fretted herself out of all chance
of the race, and set others on the fidget, so that they contrived
amongst them to make about twelve or fourteen futile starts,
and fool away three quarters of an hour. In the final start
they got off well, Dorothy ( Lord Orford's filly) with a trifling
lead, but all running wide, and going at an indifferent pace.
They observed this order of running to the Duke's stand, where
Preserve mended the pace by putting her neck in front, Hester
next her, and Martha, Burden, the Orpheline filly, and Doro-
thy lying with them. From this point till nearly home there
was no material change unless it was that Hester for a moment
appeared to have the best of Preserve ; about fifty yards short
of the chair these two singled themselves out, and ran a pretty
race home, Preserve winning cleverly by half a length, and
Hester beating Martha by nearly two lengths, being exactly
the same places they occupied for the Clearwell, although in
this race the first and second carried 71b. extra over a much
severer course. Next to Martha were Orpheline and Burden
abreast, then Dorothy, and, lastly, Reliance, Gipsy, and Cla-
rence, but no tailing. The second and third fillies and Burden
were got by Camel. Value of the Stakes, 8101. Arnull rode
the winner. In the evening 4to 1 was taken about Preserve
for the Oaks, and 10 to 1 about Hester.
