SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
HAMPTON RACES—THURSDAY.
The weather having undergone a favourable change, the
second day's racing attracted a bumper attendance, and passed
off with unequivocal success, enabling the lessees and their
sub-tenants to realise more than sufficient to cover their losses
on Wednesday.
For some hours previous to and after the races, the road, the
river, and the rail, were alive with the passing to and fro of
the thousands who, for the long period occupied in getting
through the list, had been congregated and half-broiled within
the narrow confines of the Hurst; yet, great as was the crowd,
we are not aware that any accident involving loss
of life or limb occurred—albeit, from the awkward-
ness of the approaches, ample work was provided
for the coachmakers; in fine, if we except the grumbling at
the very heavy toll exacted for the admission of vehicles on the
course, the disregard of time between the heats, and the some-
what negligent manner in which the course was kept, we must
give the stewards and their officials the credit of having, on
the whole, materially improved the character of the meeting.
The company, as we have intimated, was numerically great ;
the mobocracy, of course, being in a majority ; still it had a
dash of royalty and fashion, as the following brief selection will
make' .sanifest :—His Royal Highness Prince George of Cam-
bridge, Lords Edward Russell, Maidstone, Glamrais, Suffield,
