(THIS DAY.)

NEWMARKET.

Jollity galloped two miles and a half this morning at a
rare pace, and goes as well as she looks. The Squire ,has
arrived here for the Cesarewitch, and gallops two miles
freely. Breeze followed Guinievere a couple of miles,
and Tomahawk took Lothario two and a quarter
miles. The latter moves in first-rate form. Ostregor
led Actaaa a nice two mile gallop; and Leybourne
was schooling Sealskin, but the litter goes short.
Breadalbane, Broomielaw, and Out-and-Outer again
went a mile and a half. Eakring was walking; Il Re
Gaiantuomo led Paris and Peon in their work ; and the
Derby colt, Fitzroy, was following them. Slender went
a mile and three-quarters by herself. ; The Duke of Yolk
galloped nearly two miles, and his action was all that
could be deffred. Sultan and Saccharometer did a
mile and a half smartly. Split-the-Difference took
Lord Lyon a similar gallop over the Bury Hill,
and Achievement did a mile. She improves in her
action. Master Richard galloped a mile and a quarter, and
Vauban went about a mile. Ambition was doing first-rate
work, and Medina also. Knight of the Garter bid a rare
good spin, but the Hermit went.steadily. The Ralcigal-
loped all a mile, as did Hippia, but Fiiponnier Went only
three-quarters of a mile. Jasper took a gentle mile gallop,
and Mat Dawson gave his two-year-olds similar exercise.
