SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

ASCOT HEATH SECOND MEETING.

The Meeting terminated yesterday with the best day's
racing of the three, but with a considerably smaller as-
semblage of fashionahles. His Majesty did not arrive at
the usual time (nor till after the match), and fears were
entertained that he would not be present ; this apprehen-
sion was dissipated at two o'clock, when the Royal equi•
pages reached the Stand. His Majesty was accompanied
in his carriage by his Royal Highness the Duke of Cum-
berland, and their Graces the Dukes of Leeds and Welling-
ton; the,rest of the Royal suite was as on the preceding
they. His Majesty seemed to take a very lively interest in
the races, and did not leave till their conclusion ; both on
his arrival and departure Lis Majesty was received with
loud cheers. In the Jockey Club Stand we -observed
several fashioeables, including Lords Sefton (and family),
Atountcharles, Verulam, Most'of the Noblemen stated
in our first account were again present.
The following is a return of the day's running :

Match-50 Bove. each. lAA half of the New Mile.
SA each.
Mr. Wetherall's The Palfrey 1
Sir John Ogilvy's Rainbow
There was very little betting on this race, but the little

that did take place was in favour of the winner. 13efore
starting The Palfrey was restive, plunging violently, and
requiring all John Day's coolness and judgment to get him
to start ; at last they went off, Rainbow in front, and ED
he kept till within fifty yards of ending, when John Day
brought up his horse, and in a Ault-at-niggle beat his anta-
gonist very cleverly by a length. The loser was rude by
young Buckle. The winner was formerly the property of
General Grosvenor. The match did not create any great
interest, and was only a kind of make-wait for the next
race, in which all the betting men appeared to be mucl:
interested.

A Free Plate of One Hundred Pounds, given by the 'Town

Betting-7 to 4 agst. Mr. Pengander, and 4to 1 agst.
Dervise. Lord Mountcharles's Constance jumped off at a
good pace, Mtecenas and Derviee next her, and the others
laid up in good form, well packed together. In this way
they ran until nearly the last turn, when Mr. Pengander,
Dervise, The Vicar, and Mxcenas all came out together,
the rest being pulled off. For a considerable part of the
straight ground these four ran very claw!, but when about
100 yards from home, Dervise and Maecenas were beat off
by Pengander and Vicar. The rest of the ground was
contested by these two with remarkable truth and severity,
and it was ultimately won by a neck only. The winner
was rode by George Dockery, and The Vicar by Mac-
donald, both of whom exhibited very superior jockeyship.
Dervise was rode by John Day, and all the light weights
by lads.

Lo!,tie. ''okay went away at his best pace, and led to the
turn, where be gave way to Toni Thumb, Logic, and The
Vicar ; a struggle ensued between these three, but was of
short duration, for young Buckle soon took little Tommy
Thumb from the others, and won very easy by two or three
lengths. Logic was rode by D6ckery, Vicar by Macdonald,
Tokuy by Iforniby, Wiinper by J. Day, The Palfrey by
the owner, and Escape by R. Boyce.
We are happy to state that Robinson, the Jockey, is in
a fair way of recovery fiom his late accident.
