SPORTING. -
(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
The Second October Meeting at Newmarket was the
pleasantest known for some years. The weather was
delightful, the attendance most numerous, and the de-
light evinced by the old stagers that the character of the
future meetings was not to be invaded by the threatened
invasion of cocknies, which would certainly have taken
place had the contemplated stands been erected, was
natural and to be commended.
On Monday we had nine races, all well contested,
but only two of them were speculated upon to a great
extent, and those were the matches between Minotaur
and St. Lawrence, and Crcesus and Nottingham. In
the former I was fortunate enough to name the winner,
aed as I was uncertain whether the other would be run
I did not touch upon it. This, I fancy, will be the last
race ridden by gentlemen jockeys for some time at New-
market.
On Tuesday, the splendid prize given by the heir to
throne of Russia brought to the post a most extensive
field, which was beaten with perfect ease by The Baron
who proved himself a far better horse than I imagined,
he was. Wee Pet, who I said was sure to be fox ward,
was second, and Jenny Wren, the mare I expected to
win if lEgis had not gone, was backed at 5 to 1 ; when
I wrote she was at 12, so that In r backers could not
have hurt themselves. To show the estimation in which
The Baron was held by the stable, it is right to observe
that he was not backed for any money, as they thought
the weight must stop him. The result did not please
the fielders, many of whom had not got round. In the
Clcartvell, Sting and Princess Alice maintained the posi-
tions I thought they would occupy. Sorella and the
cub, however, disappointed me in their matches—the
latter was backed heavily at 6 to 5.
On Wednesday, Deerchase won a sweepstakes by a
:tread from a small field. Celia beat Espoir in a canter,
as I told my readers she would. Jet won the Oat-

lands from Trueboy, not by speed, but merely by tem-
per. The Town Plate brought thirteen to the post, and
was won, after a pretty race, by Metal, an animal, I
opine, which will be heard of again. The day's sport
was brought to an end by Prologue's winning 200 :-.ovs.
from Vaudeville, who had not recovered her Irish trip.
After a couple of matches, and the usual sweep-
stakes, we had a most excellent race for the Handicap
Plate, A.F., which Ruff won in a manner that left no
doubt in any one's mind but, had he been handled pro-
perly in the Cesarewitch, be would have been very close
to The Baron—in fact, too close to be pleasant. Evenus
must have been off his running, for he was beaten very
soon in the race. The next that followed was for the
Bretby Stakes, in which Cuckoo beat Polka on the pest
by a head, and the latter mare beat Ennui by the same
distance.
On Friday the week's sport was brought to a close by
seven good races ; none, however, call for any particular
observation. The Prendergast was carried off by Princess
Alice, according to my idea, and in the three matches
which followea I was lucky enough to point out the
winners.
The Houghton Meeting commences under most fa-
vourable auspices on Monday. I never knew the Cam-
bridge shire Stakes, from its establishment, excite so much
interest as it does at present ; an unprecedented number
of horses have been backed for it, and nearly all will
go. I will endeavour, as far as lies in my power, to assist
my readers in the difficult task of selecting the
vvinner. In spite of The Baron's splendid performance
in the past week, I do not really think with 7st. Mb. he
can win, but that ho will be either second or third I
have no doubt. Gorhambury. Garr Owen, Needful,
and Trueboy I will not hear of. Netittlei do I thin'.
Perkin Warbeck, Ironmaster, Nottingham, Caen, Hope,
Vaudeville, Duc-an-Durras, Valerian, hiccundus,
Longitude, Lady Wildair, Comrade, Phy;salis,
Mongrel, Prairie, Chertsey, Devil's Dust, ExampLe,
E% cot, Remorse, Kesheng, Clumsy, My Mary, or Dean I
Swift, have the slightest chance. Miss Elis, Midlothian,
Pantasa, Mentor, Extempore, and Lothario, are not
likely to go. The latter horse I preferred from the
moment the handicap came out. It should be recollected
he won the cup at Liverpool with Bst. 51b., and was only
beaten a neck for the Derby Handicap directly after-
wards, being crossed in the race. In the Goodwood
Stakes, with Bst. 131 b., he was third. Discord, Coranna,
Queen blab, and the Cure, are situated in the same
manner. Refraction and Lightning are stopped by the
weight, and what remains now worth picking from, are
only Semiseria, Yardley, Ould Ireland, Wolfdog, Wee
Pet, Flattery, Croton Oil, Best Bower, Jenny Wren,
Everton, Paintbrush, and Jet. Should Semiseria run
kindly, as she did at Doncaster, I think she will
be found in a very good place at the finish.
Yardley should run well with Bst. from his recent
public doings. Ould Ireland, with 7st., is a most
dangerous animal to be heavy against, and in my
opinion he has been kept for it. The distance will
exactly suit him, and the weight is very favourable to
him. To Wolfdog the same remarks will apply, although
it must be born in mind that the Alice he beat in the
Curragh last week was a very different animal from
Alice, the pride of the southern and northern sportsmen.
Neither the distance or weight will hurt Rowena. Ever-
ton is supported from his running second to Coheiress at
York, but as he has been subsequently beaten by infe-
rior animals, I would not recommend my friends to
stand too heavily upon him. Jenny Wren will like this
course better than the Cesarewitch. Best Bower will be
a powerful favourite, and with 6st 21b ought to be
there or there abouts. Flattery and Paintbrush I have
no doubt will run well, but are not quite good enough
to win. Croton Oil, when I think of his running, for the
Surrey Cup, which he won from the Wreck and Liotha

rio should Ve very near. Of the light-weights Jet is the
best, and will beat the others. Wee Pet is a certain
starter, but an uncertain winner. In conclusion Imagine,
either Ould Ireland, Wolfdog, or Best Bower will be
the winner of the Cambridgeshire Stakes for 1845. That
The Baron will be second or third I feel most confident,
and next to him I think Semiseria, Rowena, and Yardley
or Jet will be found. Should Lothario be started, I
would have him in preference to Wolfdog or Best
Bower.

The length I have gone into the Cambridgeshire
Stakes must necessarily render my remarks on the other
races brief.

In the 300 soy. Stakes, Mr. Herbert's colt I prefer to
Lord Glasgow's.
Captain Phcebus will beat the Miss Whip colt; Miss
Elis, Oakley; and Refraction, Prologue; at least I think
so, after mature reflection.

The Criterion, I should imagine, would go to Princess
Alice, Sting, or West Countryman. Motilla should have
no trouble in beating Black Cat, nor Prologue in beat-
ing even the Altered One.

Tor the Glasgow Stakes I should take Arkwright;
and in the match between Garry Owen and Secundui, I
lean to the former. TELEGRAPH.
