TRAINING DISTRICTS.
(THIS DAY.)

NEWMARKET.

In the course of Saturday and yesterday the arrivals of
"provincial" horses—we use the word "provincial," because
Newmarket is generally considered to be tho " metroplis"
of the turf —were numerous ; consequently business on the
heath has been exceedingly liuely. This morning Aber-
geldie, A cteaa„ Bradamante, Brown Bread, Bugler, Cran-
ford, Dulcimer, Etoil Filante, Lady of Coverdale, Life
Guardsman, Lively, Miss Haworth, Moldavia Ostregor,
Paris, Peon, Pepper's Ghost, Pluto, Rococo, Scarborough,
The Squire, The Star, The Czar, Thalia, Valiant, Vigor-
ous, Wild Agnes, Xi. and Zenobia were amongst the Cam:
bridgeshire "strangers" who exercised ; and in addition to
them wo bad several of the Newmarket representatives for
that race at work, including Broomielaw, Out and Outer,
Vespasian, the Scheldt, Mineral, the Duke of York,;Sultan,
Saladin, Jollity, Nu, Godmersham, Medina, Fluerette,
Puebla, Dalesman, Tomahawk, Guinivere, Ambition, II Re
Galantuomo, Mount Palantine, Caitness, Chepstow, Ro-
land, &c. Drewett set Ostreger to take Acteoa a clipping
mile and a half, and the mare continues to move so freely
that there cannot be a question about her ability to secure
a place in the last big handicap of the legitimate
campaign. Goodwin sent Nu and Godmersham along
smattly, but neither will do. floss will probably start
Out-and-Outer and Vespasian, as he was attending well to
thorn. Amongst the Continental team we noticed Affi-
davit, Etoile Filanto, and Charmette especially, doing first-
class, but the latter again showed a deal of temper. Pen-
hill took Chepstow a mile and a half clipping, and the colt
went uncommonly kind to-day ;heis in the very
pink of condition, and it is generally believed here
that Kenyon will be up, but ugly reports are about
respecting the horse's age. Caithness again worked by
himself; and there is no fear of "the changes being rung."
Henry Goater bad both Abergeldie and Proserpine in nice
work. Each looks in superb condition, and it is under-
stood they will both go on their ;merits, " Lord Freddy"
having sold the filly to Sir Frederick Johnstone for £2,500,
and also transferied his affection to the colt. If, therefore,
Abergeldio is really better than PrOserpine,' the former is
worth backing to win and for a place ; and it must not be
overlooked that he was highly tried just before the Derby,
and entrusted with a lot of good money for the Epsom
*Mt. Wild Agnes had a beautiful mile and a quarter gallop.
Pryor gave Paris and Peon a mile and a half steadily ;
and the former, barring his infirm legs, appears very
well. Alec Taylor had Bradamante, Pepper's Ghost, Bugler,
and Dulcimer exorcisingfreely ; but if there is any hope
for Fyfield it must be centred in Popper's Ghost, for the
Cesarewitch running of Bradamante and Dulcimer cannot
be reversed with Proserpine and Acts. Elliott gave
Moldavia and Zenobia a mile and a half gallop each ; but
the former appeared to tire at the finish. Jollity had a similar
gallop to the north country horses. Brown Bread has not had a
real good gallop for some time now, and is unsound.

The following appeared in our Third Edition of last
evening :
NEWMARKET.

Puebla, Tomahawk, Ambition, Jollity, Chepstow, Medina,
Charmette, Lightning, and Countersign are engaged in the
Cambridgeshire, so that everything bids fair for
an exceedingly large muster at the post for
next Tuesday's big handicap. The two last mentioned
horses, though, have been added to the list of scratehings,
which already include Convent, Coup d'Etat, Breadalbane,
Exceller, and Tormentor. Penhill led Chepstow a mile
and a half at a rattling pace, and the latter is very fit.
Caithness galloped by himself. Fleurotto went nearly two
miles, and looked very light. The Baron's three followed
Lothario a mile and three quarters, Dalesman moving
beautifully. Armadillo exercised with Ambition, and the
latter will take her own part in the struggle, despite the
state of the market. Brown Bread is infirm, but galloped
a mile and a half with Oppressor first class. Lozenge
worked with Stratchcouan, both following Louisa a mile
and a half. Custard Castle took Claxton a mile and
three quarters, and the latter is very much improved. Etoile
Filanta worked alone, and is a very nice mare, but rough in
her coat ; she went a mile and a half clipping. Charmetto
is not very prepossessing, and young Butler took her a
mile and a quarter; she showed a deal of temper. Affi-
davit galloped a mile and a half ; she has boon highly tried
at Royston with the St. Vincont-Bevill team. Jemmy
Mann got on the Duke of York, and galloped a mile and
three quarters smartly on the Lime-kilns. Robin Hood is
very fit ; he had a mile and three quarters gallop. Roland
went brilliantly. Jollity looked stale. Mr. Payne's team
galloped a mile and a half steadily ; and the American
representatives did a similar amount of work. Peda-
gogue has been stopped. Dragon, Friponnier, and
Hippie, each galloped over a mile ; and the Hermit did three
quarters of a mile, sharp. Most of the other juveniles were
in mile work.

The additional arrivals, with the latest training move-
ments at headquarters, will appear in our Monday's
editions.
