TIMIIVIIVG REPORTS.

RICIIMOND.—At Manchester, in the De Trafford Cup,
we hare Scotchman's Pride and Evalina. The last named
is well worth backing, if at the past. For the Tradesmen's
Cup Adamant should be backed, as ho has done particu-
larly well of late, and he is 2.,-3ing for it. Miss Osborne and
a two year old have arrived at Elliot's to ba trained.
Laud's Policy seriously iejured herself in the stable, and
has not been out this week at exerclsa.

CIIILTON.--it West Drayton we have Maesgwatha
engaged in the Ilendicap Hardie Rice awl the Hardie
Rice Plate. iho has boon doing some rare work the last
week, and I never saw her go so well, and shall fully ex-
pect to see r rviurne I the winner. Vigilant is also
engaged iu the Hurdle Race Plate, and he is looking first
class now, but with a heavy impost he could not win if
Ma-sgivatlia runs. At Redditch, Woodman lia.s two en-
gagements. He has beim duiog 60111t3 V::CY good work, and
is prot,y tit, but is so 111,3 (orate t'i it I cinuot stand him.
Ache) is doing some good work from a mile to a mile and
a halt, looking an I going first-class. Virginia Creep
C!lateau M irgaux, St. Aguas, Coagratula.,or, and i,he colt
by MUielWitA3 are also iu good work.
lIEDNESFORD. —I don't expect m ivy horses will go from
here to Croydon, but we are sure to have some both at
Manchester and Redditch. Edinburgh and Merry Boy are
in the two handicaps at Redditch, but it is any odds on the
former, and with a good jockey up he would win. For
the De Trafford Cup at Manchester we have the Clown, geld-
ing by De Clare, Master Butterfly, and St. Valentine. Should
the Clown take it into his hea i to try he would about win,
although St. Valentine is a smart little horse, and very
fit. In the Tradesmen's Cup, Success, Greenhorn, gild-
ing by De Clare, President Lincoln, Ilium, and William
are engaged. Ilium will about carry it off. We have
seven in the Salford Borough Cup, but I prefer Kidder-
minster, or Ambition, but much will depend on the first
day's running. I fancy Lord Begot and Flying Scud are
going to Redditct. far the hurdle razos. Both jump well,
but I fancy they are slow. The following horses of
Cliff's have been doing good work:—Ottoman, Monsieur
Louis, Vermicelli, Monitor, Janitor, Troubadour, Flying
Jib, Retrousse, Ambition, Master Willie, Greenhorn, geld-
ing by De Clare, Kilderminster, Verity, Ilium, Torch,
Bassoon, Vex, Lizzie Havana, Bon Webster filly, Wake-
field, Knight of Kars filly, Nemmaa, and Melody, who
are all pretty fit. Micas, Master Thomas, and colt
by Colonist are only walking. Saunders's lot are in steady
work, vfz., Charlie, St. Valentine, Brother to The Lamb,
Whinyard, and colt by Citadel. Hopwood's Success,
Master Butterfly, and Rejoinder have been sent along in
fast work, and the same may be said of Palmer's The
Clown, William, and Alicia.

LAMBDURNE.—The only horses likely to go to Man-
chester are Saxon's Tribune and Spurgeon. The former
is in the De Trafford Cup, and with such a light impost he
ought to run forward, although he is very far from a race
horse. My good opinion of the Catherine Hayes colt, now
called Belladrum, I was glad to see verified, and when he
is more fit, you readers will see what a splendid horse he
really is.

EPSOM.—The following have done some good work for
;heir engagements at West Drayton—lsabella, The Cutler
and Fulse Alarm.
