GOODWOOD RACES.
\
The " grand day" could scarcely have conic off u e e
more favourable circumstances—the card was a bump - •
having the Cup far its staple and most exciting featuic;;!. 1 X ‘i S' At '-i Is
and two or three other events of considerable interest.
The weather was favourable, and the attendance, thanks
to tho considerate policy of the Brighton Railway offi-
cials in timing and pricing the trains to afford accomme-
dation to ail classes, very large. It would be absurd to
say that in any respect it equalled what we have seen on
many previous Cup days, still it gave evidence that
Goodwood has lost little of its attraction. if our other
duties did not prevent it, the crowded state of the stand
would render it impossible to give a list of the principal
visitors; suffice it that the Goodwood and Molecomb
parties, and a great many titled or fashionable persons
not present on the previous days, were on the course,
giving an eclat to the scene which no other meeting in
the country can approach. The racing was remarkable
first, for, an unlucky contretemps, by which the Good-
wood party and the " fielders,'' after seeing their pet
first past the winning chair, the cup dashed from
their lips, in consequence of his having swerved against
the favourite at the finish; and, secondly, by the defeat
of Windischgratz for the Cup, Canezou a second time
proving victorious; and, lastly, by the triumph of Ted-
dington over the second favourite for the Derby.
The list, which comprised Iten races, was not got
through until near six o'clock.
