N EWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING.
THURSDAY EVENING.—To the aecount of this after-
noon's races we have little to add ; the matches were won
easy, and the Plate was one of the hollowest things for a
handicap that has been seen this season. eta Mie was
pulling hard all the way, and won in a canter ; Lasso was
an indifferent third, Palladium was beaten early, and, as
was everything else in the race, beaten off a long way.
The betting in the town after the races was inter-
rupted by a long discussion as to whether Scott's Derby
lot, as betted against, includes all the horses belonging to
the gentlemen who habitually train with him, or those
only that were in training at the time of betting. The
discussion arose out of an offer to back one of Major
Yarburgh's two (Dumpling and Mahornet), one of which
only (Dumpling) was included in the list of the lot pub-
lished after Doncaster races ; it appears that neither of
them has yet arrived at Scott's stables, and those
who have laid against the lot insist not only that
they cannot be considered as belonging to it, but
that any of Lord Chesterfield's, Colonel .Anson's, or
Mr. Bowes's horses, that are not yet in training, must
br, excluded. The opposite party argue that the lot laid
against comprehends horses belonging to Scott's regular
masters, saving only such as may have been purchased
or -sold by them since the list was published. Who is
to decide this knotty point, now that the J. C. has
ceased to arbitrate on betting differences, is a difficult
question to settle ; it is clear that until it be settled
Scott's lot must be a dead letter. The pro and conning
continued until five o'clock, and was followed by a few
bets on the Derby, Sze., at the following prices :
