7'O THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

St a,—The weather at last has taken a favourable turn, and
is likely to remain so during the meeting at York ; the course
is very heavy, and consequently very trying to the three-
year-olds, who are not likely to have it so much their own
way as at Goodwood.
The Coventry Cup will produce an exciting race, for which
about. Line are expected to contend—viz., Inheritress,
Arundo, Winesour, The Libel, Merry Andrew, Little Hamp-
ton, Young England, and perhaps Coheiress and The Sha-
dow; the latter two are not very likely to go for it, which, if
they did, I should most unhesitatingly name The Shadow
for the winner; but as it is, I fancy Inheritress will do the
trick, with Merry Andrew playing second fiddle.
The Members' Plate of 100 sovs., or thereabouts, will go
into Mr. Med:hail's pocket with Philip. Should The Shadow
start for this stake it will be one of the best races this meet-
ing will be able to boast of.
The Knavesmuir Stakes of 100 sovs. each, seems to me to
be very much like a walk over for Red Robin.
The match between Spur and Malt will be won by the
former.

blalt will receive forfeit from the Mrs. Fry filly.
The match between the b f by Phcenix and Brunnette will
be won by the latter.
The Great Yorkshire Stakes. for three-year-olds, will, in
all probability, show off to great disadvantage some of the
St. Leger animals. The field will probably consist of ten or
a dozen ; among others the following will make their appear-
ance—viz., Miss Sarah, Miss Elis, Hope, Jinglepot, Annan-
dale, and Fitzallen. Miss Sarah will doubtless run very for-
ward, but I do not think she will catch the judge's eye first.
Miss Elis had such a dressing at Goodwood that I think her
chance is entirely out. Hope and Fitzallen will find the
course too heavy for their enduring qualities. Annandale is
a strong animal, well suited to such a course; I expect to see
him put the 50!. allowed to the second horse in his masters'
pccket. Jinglepot, by Physician, out of Gazelle, is the
wheal I shall select for the winner of this stake,never doubt-
ing for a moment his superior strength and swiftness. I
shall not be surprised to see Jinglepot first, Annandale
second, and Hope, or Miss Sarah, third. This race will de-
cide the respective merits of Annandale and Miss Sarah, and
either confirm them in the betting, or send them out alto-
gether.—l am, Sir.,yours, &c.,
