RACING. 
“Ou tho green, green turf." 
Mb. Editop., — L iverpool has had its three days. The 
sport, on the whole, scarcely up to the mark; and the Helds, 
us to numbers, decidedly shy. Tho groat betting race of the 
meeting, the Cup, was carried off by an extromo outsider, 
upon whose chance no calculation hud been made, and her name 
almost unheard in tho ring; but whom, on her success, wo may 
now style, as euphony is so much the fashion, the Aintreo 
Ammonia. Such a windfall the bolters round have not had 
lor a long while ; there being hardly a little bookmaker who 
lias not netted his £!<)0 on the nice. As to the staunch backers 
of the favourites, hartshorn and salts could scarcely recover 
them from the stupor of amazement iuto which they were 
thrown. My choice with a start was Heapy, but John 
Scott had another most efficient representative in his 
'table, and Heapy was reserved to do good service 
on some future day. Writing a week before the races 
come off renders the attempt to select the winners no easy 
•ask ; hut, as I promised to let you have my notions of New- 
ton, Stamford, and Nottingham, lot me at once proceed, 
without unnecessary verbiage. When wrong, I am not 
'tshatned to own it; when right, I sing no pcean. 
Newton stands iirst on the list. 
For tiie Trial Handicap, should he start, my choice 
would be Indcr, but as that is very problematical, I will 6tand 
on Patience and thuGeueral. 
Tho Golboune Stakes, for two-yr-olds, with penalties 
for winners, und allowances for beaten horses. For this, not- 
withstanding the penalty incurred, Excitement and Ellerdale 
filly should be first and second. 
The Handicap Plate of 50 sovs has 35 nominations. 
As this is a half mile scramble for horses of all ages, I shall 
content myself by saying that Hyaciutli’s chance seetns to be as 
good as any of the others. 
The 70 Sovs Handicap Plate, mile and a quarter, 
with 29 subs. For this, Voucher or Liberty should not be 
fur from the winner. 
The Gold Cup, tho gift of tho Lord of tho Manor, has 
attracted an entry of 35 animals. But as the forfeits have 
yet to bn declared, it is groping in the dark to find the winner. 
Gumolari and Morning Star appear to be tolerably well in. 
Now let us turn towards Stamford. 
The Burohley Stakes. For this event I would stand 
on Cock Pheasant and El- Dorado ugainst the field; but Pun- 
cake is sure to be close at the finish. 
The Handicap Plate of 50 sovs, given by the Marquis 
of Exeter, has but four nominatious, and a more moderate 
little party has rarely been assembled. Miss Briggs may be 
the best — or the worst of the lot. 
Tho 200 sovs Sweepstakes, h f, for two-yr-olds, includes 
the name of Strood. Should Lord Exeter favour his friends 
uml tenants with sight of Ins Derby nag, this must prove an 
ea*y win for tho half-brother to Stockwell. 
Malmsey should secure the 50 sovs Sweepstake, T.Y.C., 
and Nutriment that for the two-yr-olds over the same 
course.
