SPORTING.

(FROM OUR CORRESFONDRNT.) II Pr'''
The Newmarket July Meeting commences today will:ocpret
gramme of the usual calibre. While Liverpool and 6
„4to
which are so near at hand, offer such powerful attractio.t-perac::
owners of racehorses, it is not likely that the fields in any °I trce
will be large. For the July Stakes, the only starters I et;eo,4
see are the Smuggler Bill, Moonbeam, one of Lord Eae.fi-ist
of Colonel Peel's, and Ipecacuana. Of these only the,:
have been backed; and, from the force the etaL4,-p, 6!ter'
at present, I rather expect to see tt.e Smult-e
Colonel Peel has won this stake so often, that here tlioja
be looked upon as a dangerous opponent, and as his o°,lo 0
best bred ones in the race, his winning with either of th0:00(
not in the least surprise me. On Wednesday Mr. Shelly's
eitctc'ed
is matched against Mr. Bouverie's Science, with every Pr°;;10 ;
beating her. For the Chesterfield Stakes, which bas 1100/
so many good horses to public notice, Pope
the field will consist only of Nell Cook, The Free Lanc:lo
Colonel Peel's, and one of Lord Exeter's, and out of WS`
Free Lance will be first, and Nell Cook second. taeCeli;
To the Liverpool Cup there are twenty.five a`'oo4
but as Johnny is out of training, and William to
to
reported to have broken down, the list may be "std
oral!
reduced to twenty-three. Upon a hasty glance . Del",
Ironmaster, Milton, Lothario, and Trueboy will be found t' t'
best in. For the Goodwood Stakes, Pythia's victory over., of,
ritress seems to have benefited her little, as she is lima' Ur
a favourite now as she was before the result of the CuLfi WO:
Plate was known. The Libel, John o'Osunt, and- Queen '''aforlDa
each backed yesterday by good judges for large fume. tvild'i;
Goodwood Cup a new favourite was introduced in Mr. Gra j
Stomacher colt, who, if he wins, will be doubtless hen(nbefel;
a name. He is a four-year old, and will carry 7st. URN ;05
stilt of the Liverpool St. Leger will have an important effect suclii
namesake at Doncaster, as Pantasa and Mentor will lece;10
the latter is defeated the position of the firmer in thepg.-
be materially al:ere-Li.
