THE AMERICAN
prom the Iondon Morning sar Of August Al
great meeting was held at Goodwood last week The
beauty and the chvay Of England assisted at it, and
amongst the guests Of the Duke of Richmond were a
Royal Duke Queen, an ex Prime Minister, and divers
other great and noble personages The sport worthy
OF their patronage and throughout it not marked by
one incident which the opponents OF horse racing could
seize to strengthen their arguments The stirring inter
est which tho racing excited did not end with the sport,
for events decided which were fraugt with much
prospective importance. Future speculations will be
ruled by the running at Goodwood to which professional

been ridden by English jockeys, they would have been
much the winner at the finish. Indeed, at the
distance, Priorpss looked quite formidable and her

rider however sat bolt upright upon her and held her in
manner which would have excited suspicion had an
English jockey adopted the same style of riding. The
Americans In fact, seemed ignorant of nursing
and easing their horses and of making those finishes
which mpart something artistic to the profession of
English jockey. Priorcss too, was nearly going the
wrong course and her rider did not discover the mistake
until the lead ws taken from him. and he the horses
