A letter was read from Baron de Teissier, one of the
stewards of Epsom races, staticg his full concurrence in
the desire expressed, that Epsom races should in future
be under the control and management of the Jockey

of Epsom in the management of Epsom races.
Several resolutions were proposed, and, after some dis-
cussion, their further consideration was postponed till
Monday, for which day a meeting was ordered to be

MONDAY, JUNE 17.
PRESENT :
Right Hon. G. S. Byng,
The Earl of Stradbroke, Stewards.
The Marquis of Exeter,_

The Hon. Col. Anson
S. Batson, Esq.
C. C. Greville, Esq.
Viscount Maidstone

The Ron. Capt. Rous
J. V. Shelley, Esq.
W. S. Stanley, Esq.
The Earl of Verulam

Lord C. Manners
The. Marquis of Normanby
Geo. Payne, Esq.
. The Members of the Jockey Club having assembled to

Viscount Villiers
Sir W. W. Wynn, Bart.

take into consideration some circumstances which have

lately occurred on the Turf, and which seem urgently to
require that the attention of the Club should, without
delay, be directed to them, have come to the following
resolutions :

First—That cases have occurred in which persons
have fraudulently entered to run for stakes (which, by
the published conditions were limited to horses of a spe-
cified age), horses above the age so specified; gaining for
the horses so entered an unfair advantage over their
competitors, and thus races have been won by horses
which were in reality not qualified to start. •

Secondly—lt appears to the Club that such proceed-
ings not only tend to defraud the owners of those horses
which would otherwise have been winners, but are calcu-
lated to inflict an. injury upon the Turf, by bringing
racing into disrepute, and by deterring honourable men
from entering into a competition in which they run the
risk of being encountered by such dishonest rivals.
Thirdly—That the Club, as patrons of racing, have in
this matter a direct interest separate from that of the
individuals who may happen to be sufferers by such
frauds ; and that it behoves them to take care that in
all such cases the law, by which such frauds are punish.
able, should be duly enforced. But it may frequently
happen, that the individuals upon whom such frauds
have been practised may, on application to the stewards
of the race, obtain redress, so far as regards the pay-
ment of the stakes ; and, being content with this, may
not choose to incur the trouble and expense of prosecut
ing the offending parties, and thus such parties, or other
parties of a similar description, may be induced by the ,
expectation of impunity to repeat attempts of the same
kind.

Fourthly—That in all cases in which it shalt bo esta-
blishid to the satisfaction of the Jockey.Club,that a fraud
has been practised, or attempted by any person, in re-
gard to the entering or running any horse for any race,
or • that any other fraudulent proceeding, which is

punishable by law has taken place in regard to actos
the Jockey Club shall, if they think fit, with the ;lie
of the party aggrieved (in case such party
to prosecute), take such steps as may be recul/07*. Iti
proper legal advisers, for the purpose of inflicting 7,14
offenders the punishment to which they have reD..

themselves liable. is
h
Fifthly—When the age or qualification of
objected to, either before or after running for Olio
in which he is engaged, the stevvards, °Toy
whom they may appoint, being members of the
.0.
Club, shall have power to order an examinationolorig
f
horse's mouth by competent persons, and to
I, • eci3O
such evidence as they may require; and tau d
shall be final, unless they shall think fit to reg0,...,"'
that the question in dispute l3e carried into a Cul.—
law. 104

Sixthly—lf a horse shall run in any race in Pgletio
or elsewhere, and it shall be proved to the snli9ofilif
of the stewards, or of those whom they LOY iiirdes,
that the horse was not of the age represented, the.,:n°"rals
or part owner, trainer, or groum, or person int":7dir
charge of such horse at the time, shall be for ev— 09.
qualified from running or training any horse where,"
rules of the Jockey Club apply, and from 1:1'4
ployed by any member of the said Club. Or
Sevebthly—Nu horse foaled out of the Unite", fthi
dom shall be entered for any race where the rules 00
Jockey Club prevail, unless the owner shall, et threeco
of naming, produce to the person appointed to floo
such nomination, and leave with him a certificate irst
some racing club of the country where the ho
of
foaled, or from the mayor or other public officer.°r the
district, stating the age, pedigree, and colour °`
horse, and the marks by which it is distinguished,o4
The appointment of the Marquis of Exeter as Sw
of the Jockey Club, under rule 4, was notified t°
