NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEET•-
THE CESAREWITCII, &c.

TO TAE EDITOR OF THE SUN. ,aved
SlR,—The forthcoming meeting, from all apPell:,-00
will be of an average grade, and, extending 03" thl
from Monday to Friday, will afford, consideriegv,
length of the meeting, some very capital sporn
lf
majority of the stakes of the week, or at least n' o 0
are as yet skeletons; the first feature of any llnteAcl
,t
Monday's list is- the Sweepstakes for 200 SOB. j pol
h ft, for two yrs old; T. Y. C. This stake, it 'se eo'
impossible, may be contested by the whole of thlj is
tries, five in number, and were I sure that Bab ~,tio
was worth an investment I should back him, be
if
three others of about equal merits willpr
the field likewise, in the shape of Scarecrow, the Ries
sails filly, and Father Thames, I must, overthr°l(oo
Weathergage, take the best (and bad is the best) °,c
al
public performers, FATHER THAMES, for WY sPeor
choice on this occasion. The next stake is 0 snick
-stakes of 50 eovs each, 30 ft, for three yrs old 'id
Bst 71b each, 31bs and slbs allowed, D.M. This stye
all probability will create a struggle between 9s
Homburg, Bst 21b; Merry Peal, Sit 41b; and irroll
41b also. I feel inclined to place Lord DerhY,6siti,
first, Mr. Gratwicke's Hesse Homburg second, 103°'
Hawley's Merry Peal last. wotile
Tuesday's card will of course be the most at6-deir
ono of the week, as it will have on it the Royal' v„001
well, and Cesarewitch Stakes. The Royal Stake° "4011
sots. each, 120 ft, for three years old, with it:1130'00
conditions, the second saving his stake, and the heoll
being over the fiat. The field will be auythieg two 811
enormous one, consisting of Midas, Bst 121 b; Arie,sce'ote
71b; and perhaps one of Lord Clifden's. I can ul-001
nothing that stands the most remote shadow of se tat,
of beating ARIOSTO, who, with Nat up, I prestlo3°,,',
win without an effort; the five pounds between 001
Midas turning the scale most effectually in the Oro
favour. The Clearwell Stakes of 30 sous. eatioa?,
for two years old, the winners of a variety of 0"10
carry penalties, T.Y.C. The winner of this stall oil
many instances, in fact nearly every year, turne",
be one of, if not the first, favourite for the Der,"'
several times the winner of the great race itseir• 010,
field, as far as I can ascertain at the present °vn
.:VI
will be composed of Bay Rosalind, Ms e%tetiii
filly by Ratan, dam by Melbourne out of Lisbew' 0'
Cara, Bosphorus, Sophistry, Kingston, 61bs Ottih
one from the Goodwood stable. Hot-cross-butt sadOP
or two others may also run, but this shall be 03°1-„,10,
tinctly defined next week. The couple with the Pedoe
attached are the most likely to compass the winni°,oo4l),
at least that is my present opinion. The depot°
disposed of, we will now turn our attention to
race of the week, 'yclept
THE CESAREWITCH, tOt
which is a free handicap sweepstakes of 25 sellid,
15 ft, with 300 added for the first time this yeor:glr,
Jockey Club, the Grand Duke Cesarewitch 1101741'

but Mr. Nichol having scratched rin,bo

penalty is set aside; the second horse io
Leger Aphrodite having been strtlei7ooo'
early, the Gibs penalty for running in that Vint CO,
also cleared away; the winner of the Doncae,te 00:
The Ban, was likewise struck out early, and IV:
penalties do not attach. The owner of the sec°11„00;

pay 30 soya. to the judge. Two miles, 008 10.2
and 215 yards. Seventy-three aubscrihell„
cried content to the weights imposed tie OF
respective nags, which is one of tb:liestf,
acceptances on record. Premising that the 10'00;
one and all, well aware that Newminster, Con e
and Sir Charles are scratched, I will proceed to titaial
ful consideration of the chances of those anit° sflt:
on the day I expect will form the foremost portioncA
field. The first lot of any importance which sttriltlo7l,
eye is that belonging to the Great Wizard of tse etr,„
—John Scott—who on this occasion sported the„
Newminster and four others in Backbiter, et sf°l
Abbess colt, and Sledmere, as the representativ"oll
interests of his stables. cwminster, who at tlin;ol,i
would have been a very dangerous customer,.,loo
unlikely the winner, Mr. Nichol has already,
r
by scratching him out for this engagement..„Bolo
biter at Bst looks likely to be the horse en '."0,e0t4
hie performances are very in and out, but at tide,
witness the Metropolitan Handicap and the G°
Stakes, ho can ran when wanted ; his clisteeeillo
ever, has no attraction for me, and I think it Yoe
probable that he will gut nearer the front than, Oa
position. Respecting Scott's stable, the priv%o9#
that take place there are of the most curious IT able
A
ordinary kind. A horse is tried high, found .TO5
give a stone away at home to a stable compo°l-,K
the following week the same animal sent to
running for him beats him at level weights. ',,tA
bN
been attributed to the dryness of the trial tor,
it is very possible they may make the same itbr
this time. The colt by Gladiator, out Of rtOit
which, like unto Backbiter, belongs to Colon ¢,'
has not run for a year, when, carrying 7 stenelaik
not placed in a 601. plate at Manchester, won by 401
same age, 6st 111 b. This animal has been P'4ol,
whispered about, and afterwards generally rep fir 7
the touts; to be the best thing at Afolon,.-sg1);
Cesarewitch, and if weight is the only tul:o
prevents its winning, a four years old 'ol,oll'
feathery qaantum of sst on his back must r;rn
respectable chance; but this is not the Cii"
It
animal being a second edition, and a worse orol,
afraid, of his stable companion, Champion. 3/clerel
named horse's chance I shall not take into cons' ear
for an instant, notwithstanding that, for a five /„,00.,.°
he has but 54 131 b to carry. Sledmere, the ve'-‘,C
Melton horse, is not far enough advanced to do ,f
of note. Tomorrow I will analyse the next lot
portance, which will be Tom Dawson'a.
I am, Sir, yours, Sae.,
