SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

NEWMARKET, Saturday.

The French filly Jenne Premiere did two nice gallops
this morning, led by Feu Follet, and no horse in the
world wont better. Lozenge went a good gallop with
French up; Baron Rothschild's lot soon followed; and
Jasper, Chignon, and Ilippia went a good gallop on the
Cambridgeshire Course. Jasper seemed to have the best
of it all the way ; Hippia was beaten some distance.
Afterwards Jasper, Restitution, Kiug Alfred, and Nyanza
went a good gallop on the
.01.i.erion Course. King Alfred
seemed to havo greatly improved, as ho made Jasper gallop.
Mat Dawsou's lot had ono or two cantors, and then Julius
(with Covoy up) and Honesty started and galloped the
Cambridgeshire Course, and Julius seemed to have the
best of it all the way. It roally was a good gallop, but
Honesty seemed to tire at the finish. Drewitt's lot can-
tered about, and then Action., Violent, and Pirate Chief
went the same course. Acteea seemed to please tho touts
very much. Jennings' lot, after ono or two cantors with
Dragon and two others, wont a good gallop over the sa►ue
course, and then Rabican and Ouragan wont the Cri-
terion Courso, and a real raspor it was —the best gallop
this morning. Then the remainder of his lot
wont over the same course at a good speed.
Jos. Dawson's lot were out on the ditch side, but they
only cantered about. Harlock had four out, but they
only cantered. Porter's lot had some very nice canters.
Bloss was 3ut with his string, but I did not see them do
much work. Goodwin's lot wore out and cantered once or
twice, and they really look well. Gilbert did some nice
work with his lot, and they also look well. Blanton had
Bounceaway, Duke of York, Tormentor, and a lot of
others out ; the first named had a good gallop over the
Criterion Course. (lolling was out with his lot, and gave
them plenty of good work. There were many others I
did not know doing work.
NEWMARKET, Sunday, Oct. 20.
_

This morning most of the horses were out on the Bury
Hill. Mat Dawson's lot had two cantors, Covey on
Honesty. Joseph Dawson's lot merely cantered. Jenne
Premiere, led by Feu Follet, went a half-speed gallop, and
then ono by herself. Afterwards Feu Follet had a good
gallop by himself. Godding's lot had two half-speed gal-
lops, and they really seemed to go first-rate. Hayhoe's
lot were out, and they had ono or two cantors ;
then Jasper and Suffolk had one good gallop,
and thou Ilippia went a gallop, and Jasp.r joined
in tho last mile. I like Jasper the best HI ystlf.
Baron Rothschild was out to seo them gallop.
Blanton'slot were out. Tormentor had one good gallop
with Mann up; the rest menly cantered. Tom Dawson
had five out, but they had finished work before the others
commenced. Drowitt, Porter, 011ivor, Jennings, Bloss,
and many others, wero out on the racecourse, but I did not
see any of them. if any ou'sider wins it will be the Colt by
Toxopholito. But I think LANEItET or JEusE PREMIERE
will win.

The CI aerion Stakes is at present the only closed race on
Monday that calls for any remarks, and whichever Sir
Joseph Hawley runs, most likely Blue 4iowu, will Win.
The Cambridgeshire is a most difficult race to select the
winner from, especially this year, and if there is no better
horses at the woiyhts than we saw run in the Cesarewitch
it is just on the curds this great event will go to Fraece
by the aid of Jeuno Premiere, who since her arrival hero
looks and goes well. rt is really ridiculous to expect
Julius to carry Bst 9]b successfully up the hill, for it has
never yet been done by a three year old, and very seldom
by a horse of any other age with such a heavy impost. The
highest weight that has won during the last ten years was
7st 41b., which Odd Trick carried in 1857. Friponnier
looks certainly big enough to carry a castle, and should
Mr. Pryor be able to got his money on and send him to the
pest he will boat all the heavy weights, as from the way
he defeated Hermit the other day we can hardly toll what
he can do with a lot of indifferent horses, such as we
have in training just now. Tom French will ride him if
he runs, so that his backers have nothing. to fear on the
score of his not being properly handled in the race. Laneret
is a pretty good horse, and I am told has had a favourable
Arial, but I am afraid he has about 71b too much weight on
his back, although in my opinion he will beat all the
horses that ran in the Cesarewitch. Indeed, his running
with Lord Ronald at York looks as if lie could beat all the
heavy weighted three year olds. Treasure Trove has no
chance, and I think the Duke of York will be the best of
Charles Blanton's s able, and having been doing well
lately he may have an outside chance. Knight of the
Garter is well, and mounts the hill every morning like
lion, but the public will not back him at 7 to 4, as they
did his stable companion Blinkhoolie, nor has he any
chance with Friponuier if the latter conies to the post.
Hippie will run, and is the best of the Baron's lot. Tho
Baron backed her for a lot of money before she was beat at
the First October Meeting, and since then has taken 3,000
to 90 about his lot, which is only like backing the winner
of the Oaks, as she beat all the others in a canter when
they were tried together on Tuesday morning. Ilayhoo
has paid particular attention to her this week, and there
are more unlikely animals than Hippie getting a place. I
have no fancy for anything else until I come to Dragon,
and although it has been frequently stated by me iu these
columns that he was no Derby horse, he may run well
with 7st 71b on his back next Tuesday. Acttea is well,
and has been doing some rattling work here all the week ;
in fact there is no animal looks and goes better, and she is
certain to take a great deal of beating. Janitor has been
backed at long prices, and if ho has come back to his old
form, would win in a cantor, but all I can say is he was hero
last meeting, and has gone home again. Tynedale, Goojerat,
and Nu have no chance, whilst Jasper is a rogue, and can-
not be depended upon. Wroughton has been hacked for good
money, and will have the assistance of Tom Hibbard, and
if he is in the same form he displayed in the spring when
he ran Vauban to a head his chance is second to Dore.
Blinkhoolie will perform better than he did in the Cesare-
witch, and, in my opinion, will beat all those which ran
for that event. Archimedes is too groat a bruto to bo
trusted. Lozenge is fit to run for a man's life, and with
such a light weight ought to finish very forward. I have
no faith in Wolsoy, who was beat at the distance in the
Chesterfield Stakes at Goodwood, and does not apparently
like to go beyond three-quarters of a mile. Honesty has
no chance, notwithstanding all the money he has been
backed for, and those who "plunged" on him last Saturday
week at Bto 1 will have bad hedging. One writer tells us
that he has gone through a variety of phases which the
most attentive student of the Turf barometer could not
have foreseen. Another writer tells us he has no partiality
for a horse lie has so recently seen lame. Now, if those
writers had taken the trouble to look at the horse when
galloping, they would probably have prevented their
readers from backing him, his only complaint being that
he is troubled with "the slows." Julius always pulled
over him, as I stated before the Cesarewitch, and Sweet
Anne also beat him in a gallop on the Limo Kilns the
week before that race, and I question if she could win the
Cambridgeshire with sst. on her back. All I can
say about Leases is that he will be ono of the runners,
with young Goodwin up. The Attack colt has been
backed for some money; but I believe Grey Stocking
was very close to him in a trial, and I cannot therefore
recommend either of them on this occasion. Ammunition
is fancied by some good judges hero, and I have every
reason to suppose Ilarlock thinks her chance second to
none. Ho is very anxious to engage Butler to ride her,
and from all I cart hear is very likely to obtain the ser-
vices of that popular light weight. Having gone through
all those animals likely to run, in conclusion, I shall ex-
pect to see ACTMA., FRIPONNIER, LANERET, and AMMU-
NITION furnish the winner, and fancy their chances in
the order named. In my selection of four for the Cesare-
witch were the first and fourth horses, so 1 shall bo
quite content if equally successful this time. The
Sweepstakes of 200 sous each looks like a certainty for
Pace, who will be in decidedly better form than he was
when ho beat Athena the week before last, as ho had
been in physic only two days before. The Glasgow
Stakes on Wednesday looks a " moral" for Courtmantle,
and the All-Aged Stakes will most likely be walked over
by Friponnier. Tho Fres Handicap Sweepstakes on
Thursday roads like a certainty for Julius, and I shall
stand Lady Elizabeth for the Troy Stakes. Tho Sweep-
stakes of 500 soya each on Friday will also go to Pace,
and for the Sweepstakes of 100 BOPS each, I shall expect
to see Dalesman boat Rama. The Sussex Stakes will
probably go to King Alfred, who has very much improved
lately, and goes in his best style.
