Lough Dawn took the lead at starting, and at the
stand was leading about twenty lengths, followed by
Vatican, Mrs. Birch, and Maid of Masham, the Black
Doctor, with The Ban last. They travelled in this
order at a strong pace to the bill, when the running
was taken up by Vatican, who went on with it, having
the Maid of Masham and Mrs. Birch in his track to
the bend. Maid of Madam then went in advance,
waited on by The Black Doctor and The Ban, who
caught her at the distance, and went in singled
out to the end, The Ban winning easily by two lengths.
Maid of Masham, who broke down, a bad third. Run
in 4 min. 41 secs. On returning to scale, the trainer of
The Black Doctor objected to the winner, on the ground
that Sir Joseph Hawley ran two horses in the race
(Vatican, who ran as Sir Joseph Hawley's property in
the 701. plate, was stated to have been sold to Mr. Mor-
ris before this race was run, and ran in his colours).
The ease had not been gone into when we left Doncaster.

Match, 200, h ft. Fitzwilliam Coarse. Lord Glas-
gow's Nondescript received forfeit from Colonel Anson's
Patent (dead).
Owing to the want of public interest in the Cup, and
the almost entire absence of spcculatian cn it unlit the
night before the race, the attendance this afternoon was
chiefly confined to parties stopping in the neighbenr-
hoed, and to visitors from the manufacturing districts ;
few patronised the special train from town. and the
aggregate, compared with the memorable Cup day of
1850, showed a falling off txt the extent of at least one-
third ; very few fashionables were present. The racing
was excellent, and was rem.arkable for the success which
attended Sir Joseph Hawbsy's colours, Aphrodite win-
ning the Park-hill and Doncaster Stakes in the com-
monest of canters, and the Ban the Cup ; Maid of
Masham, who was looking well at the time, having
broken down at the distance. The Cup race, it will be
seen, remains in abeyance until the stewards shall have
adjudicated on the objection against the winner. The
meeting, on the whole, has been very successful, and it
is gratifying to add, that the management in every de-
partment is entitled to the highest praise. Not less
commendable were Mr. Seymour Clarke a arrangements
at the railway station, the arrival and departure of the
trains having been so regulated as to prevent the con-
fusion that prevailed last year, and the occurrence of an
accident of any consequence.
