DONCASTER RACES.
In accordance with a resolution passed by the Doncaster
Racing Club last year, the ensuing meeting will commence on
Tuesday next, the day on which, with one exception, via., in
1794, when Wednesday was the first day, and the St. Leger
(won by Beningborough) the first race, they had begun up to
1803. As this alteration necessarily involved a change in the
order of running, with which many of our readers must be im-
perfectly acquainted, we have subjoined an outline of the en-
gagements as they now stand, subject, of course, to the addi-
tions to be derived from the entries to be made on Monday
next. By the new arrangement, all the great events but the
Scarborough and Park Hill Stakes will be run for a day later
than last year, and the meeting will terminate on Friday. It
was originally proposed and carried that the alteration should
be confined to the days of running, and not to the number ;
the principal ground of objection to running on Monday being
that Sunday travelling and Sunday trading or betting became
almost unavoidable. We suggested at the time that to carry
the racing on to the end of the week would scarcely have the
effect of preventing travelling on the Sabbath ;- and that; in
fact, the list, while it would insure four days' good racing,
would not bear spinning out into five, a day more than is taken
to get through three times the antity at Goodwood ; and. we
ventured to predict that the Saturday would eraitually be
abandoned. This shortly afterwards proved to be the case. It
is true a couple of matches have been tliade for that day be-
tween the Earl of Glasgow and Lord George Bentinck, but
they are expressly advertised ta for the Saturday after the
meeting, and are not likely to detain many in Doncaster, or to
lead to any desecration "ti the Sabbath.
It was not uncomin',n some years hack to have race, on the
Saturday before th'd meeting ; such was the case in 1821, 1822,
and 1823, ant; it was in the secohd of these years that the first
Champagne Stakes, won by Swiss, was run for; it came off in
the felieoing year on the same day, and, subsequently, on
Moekiay, of which day it has been the " leading feature," up
to 1844, inclusive.
The corporation, besides voting the liberal sum of 1,000/. to
the race-fund, have made many improvements en the course, and
have so eensideeably extended the enclosete at the Grand Stand
as to admit of the saddling within it, as at Liverpol, Ascot, Asc.,
end to afford a great increase of accommodation to the visitors,
as well as to j ,ckeys and trainers. We leave these improve-
ments for a future notice ; meanwhile we can safely assert that,
apart from the St. Leger, confessedly one of the darkest and
most exciting on record, the prea.ise of sport contained in the
following outline is first re,te
The Fitawillitun Stakes of 10 sou. each, with 50 added ;
