SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
ASCOT HEATII RACES.—Fainar.
Making due allowance for the Cup, confessedly the crack race
of the week, there is nothing in the " Grand Day" here that
will bear comparison with Tuesday and Friday—the Alpha and
Omega of the meeting, in the estimation of a genuine turfite.
The running on those days is almost invariably of a superior
character, and is free from those annoyances to which all are
subjected on the Thursday. On the first day, too, independent
of other inducements, the most attractive features of the third
may be found by those to whom racing at Ascot, with-
out its concomitant—royalty, would be incomplete.
The Friday, however, is the pet day of the mere
" spitting ' man. The fields are larger ; the horses
better matched : betting, as a consequence, is more animates!,
and the racing altogether assumes a business-like shape. So
was it. yesterday. The card displayed a formidable array of
stakes, of which the Wokingbam, in too classes, were the
most prominent, and we had only to point to the list of starters
fur each to prove that he who turned his horse's head home-
wards without a feeling of thankfulness to those who had ca-
tered so bountifully for his amusement, must. have been execs•
sively hard to please. • -
It could be an ibeless repetition to give the names of the
fas.hionables present yesterday ; it will be enough to state that
most of the stars of the sporting world were to be found either
in the Jockey Club stand or in that mystic circle, y'clept the
"ring," and that a few of the attaches of Royalty, not Royalty
itself, occupied the principal apartment of the Queen's Stand,
of the middle ranks the musur was more numerous than usual
on the last day, although, of itself, inconsiderable.
To enable " Hon. Members " to reach town early the first
race was fixed for half-past twelve o'clock ;it proved, however,
to be a walk over for

is noerver held

other word that o well describes its character. It was not
wanting in a single feature
Consort, attended by aneces!ary to its success ; the pre-
sence of the Queen and her illustrious
brilliant Court, .proved its chief attraction. The sport was
abundant and of the mast exciting kind, the weather glorious.
and the company numerous and aristocratic beyond precedent ;
nor was there a wrangle or accident to mar the general
happiness. In conclusion—the arrangements for the
week were drawn up with a tact that proved Lord
Rosalyn to be perfectly au fait to his duties, and

were ably carried out by Mr. Hibbard and Ms
subordinates. The "Judgment seat" was most satisfactorily
filled by Mr. Clark of Newmarket, and a strong detachment of
the police, under Superintendents May and Grinsell, arid In-
spector Pearce, kept excellent order on the course.
