NEVOMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEE--
THE CESAREWITCII, &c.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUiv•
,—T arol
Sinhe forthcoming meeting, from all apPea,"del
will be of an average grade, and, extending 55" 0
from Monday to Friday, will afford, considerirgTo
length of the meeting, some very capital 61)011* 11 it,
majority of the stakes of the week, or at least nelu,e of
are as yet skeletons; the first feature of any nel„oli,
Monday's list is the Sweepstakes for 200 sous' .;01
h ft, for two yrs old; T. Y. C. This stake, ft er
impossible, may be contested by the whole of tlidot
tries, five in number, and were I sure that Bob her
was worth an investment I should back him, ~"8"
three others of about equal merits will be
the field likewise, in the shape of Scarecrow, the 0
salis filly, and Father Thames, I must, overtbr°lo
Weathergage, take the best (and bad is the best)o°eciii
public performers, FATHEII THAMES, for mY :,eor
choice on this occasion. The next stake i 9 i;:f110,
stakes of s'o sovs each, 30 ft, for three yrs o'Thisefr
Set 2lb each, 31bs and 51bs allowed, D.M. This 6'ol,
all probability will create a struggle between, ;,
Homburg, Bst 21b; Merry Peal, Bst 41h; and 'l.;"'fiP
416 also. I feel inclined to place Lord DerbY;sif.l
first, Mr. Gratwicke's Hesse Homburg second,
Hawley's Merry Peal last.
Tuesday's card will of course he the most slleir
one of the week, as it will have on it the Royal,
well, and Cesarewitch Stakes. The Royal Stalie°"olo
sovs. each, 120 ft, for three years old, with ineu%
conditions, the second saving his stake, and the beto
being over the fiat. The field will be anythiog
enormous one, consisting of Midas, Bst 121 b; Ari°,4ste?
71b; and perhaps one of Lord Clifden's. I csou'il
nothing that stands the most remote shadow of 5C
of beating ARIOSTO, who, with Nat up, I prestere.et'oe;
win without an effort; the five pounds between btiralf:
Midas turning the scale most effectually in thel°;,e'
favour. The Clearwell Stakes of 30 sovs. eacbo
for two years old, the winners of a variety of °lle'
carry penalties, T.Y.C. The winner of this stakeAd'
many instances, in fact nearly every year, tome
be one of, if not the first, favourite for the Der
uPf:
several times the winner of the great race itself. ,oir
field, as far as I can ascertain at the present 01", to
will be composed of Bay Rosalind, fibs e%tl,fl'e;
filly by Ratan, dam by Melbourne out of Lisbetw'
Cara, Bosphorus, Sophistry, Kingston, fibs ealr1::
one from the Goodwood stable. Ilot-cross-bue6l)o
or two others may also run, but this shall be °3°o-i
tinctly defined next week. The couple with the ,P;"
attached aro the most likely to compass the vvin0,,,113,,°01.
at least that is my present opinion. The
disposed of, we will now turn our attention to tb
race of the week, 'yclept
THE CESAREWITCH,
which is a free handicap sweepstakes of 250°-je
la ft, with 300 added for the first time this year,,
Jockey Club, the Grand Duke Cesarewitch 133„,/t,of
year declined to give a bonus to it any longer. 'I",,S,
ner of the Doncaster St. Leger, which appliaS
minster, would have had twelve pounds extra,
t°
but Mr. Nichol having scratched
penalty is set aside; the second horse ill "
Leger Aphrodite having been stroc,itias
early, the Gibs penalty for running in that I)°,:erei.,
also cleared away; the winner of the Donetl%fie,
The Ban, was likewise struck out early, and
penalties do not attach. The owner of the see°"joit2l
to receive 50 sovs. out of the stakes, and the W-/01,',
pay 30 sovs. to the judge. Two miles, 013°0 r
and 215 yards. Seventy. three subscribero
cried content to the weights imposed tire
respective nags, which is one of t„"blic/':
acceptances on record. Premising that the
one and all, well aware that Newminster,
and Sir Charles are scratched, I will proceed
fill consideration of the chances of those st"ra;ol
on the day I expect will form the foremost p0rt,7,4,
field. The first lot of any importance which tni.-0
eye is that belonging to the Great Wizard of th'e
—John Scott—who on this occasion sported r„t"bag.
Newminster and four others in Backbiter, '-9(11'
tali" 0
Abbess colt, and Sledmere, as the represen
interests of his stables. Newminster, who at t',ol!,
would have been a very dangerous customery4
unlikely the winner, Mr. Nichol has already 'II" 7,
by scratching him out for this engagetneel'oe'
biter at Bst looks likely to be the horse on tioo,
his performances are very in and out, but titooe,'
witness the Metropolitan Handicap and the ce"
Stakes, he can ran when wanted ; his ehittileti,
ever, has no attraction for me, and I think lt
probable that he will get nearer the front t.11,1/,13,te
position. Respecting Scott's stable, the Pw-ecle,".
that take place there are of the most curious A" oVi
ordinary kind. A horse is tried high, foe too,
give a atone away at home to a stable coral*,
the following week the same animal sent t°
running for him beats him at level weights.,
been attributed to the dryness of the 0'4.6'
it is very possible they may make the sal"
this time. The colt by Gladiator, out
which, like unto Backbiter, belongs to Col`itn'oe,i'
has not run for a year, when, carrying 7 shvra
not placed in a 601. plate at Manchester, WO
same age, Est 111 b. This animal has bee° notV
whispered about, and. afterwards generallY rer
the touts, to be the best thing at Malto°oo€
Cesarewitch, and if weight is the 001,
prevents its winning, a four years ol"
must ,03'
feathery quantum of sst on his back'
respectable chance; but this is not the °fp
animal being a second edition, and a worse °OO,
afraid, of his stable companion, Champion• al,
e°
named horse's chance I shall not take into °/eY,
for an instant, notwithstanding that, for a al°e,
he has but sst 131 b to carry. Sledmere, the id., #:
Mahon horse, is not far enough advanced to 00
of note. To morrow I will analyse the neat
penance, which will be Tom Dawson s.
