Epsom Races.
-4de - iemi aUge on the downs,to-day, although by no means so npmetM f as-it. was yesterdiy, was greater than it usuaUy is on Ai third day-of .the'races, and was extrenely select. Tke delightful state of the weather, andathe anticipation, of goodl uaning, combined to attract most of the persons of rank at present in London or its vi. cinity. The Dukesof Yotk and'GloceateT again honoured the course with their'presence, but Prince Leopold and the Duchess of Kent did not. In addition to those we mentioned yesterday, we observed the Alarquis of -Hertford, Earl Grosvenor, Alr. Secretary Peel, and his two brothers; Lord Deerhurst, and several other persons o1 rank. The hiU was again studded with brilliant equipages, but there were not so many along the lines. The principal source of interest to-day was the race for the Oaks Stokes of 50 guineas each, h. ft.; for 3.year.old fillies, 8st. 41b. The Last mile and half. The owner of the second filly to receive 100 guineas out of the stakes. There were 41 subscribers; 13 horses ran. The odds were 5 to 4 C'obweb against the field; 4 to 1 against Rebecca and 10 to 1 against any of the others. In this in. stance there was no mistake in selecting the favourite, Cobw^eb win- ning therace with the greatest ease Only two of the following horses were placed: - Mr.Turner namedLordJersey's f.'Cobweb . . I MF. Walker named Mr. Peel's' gr. f Fillede Joie, by Filho da Puta . 2 Duke of Grafton's f. Rebecca, by Soothsayer. Lord G. H. Cavendish's b. f. by Orville. Mr. Turner named iMr. Goddard's f. Pedigree. Alr. W%alker named M1r. Forth's b. f. Miss Jigg. Lord Derby's br. f. Lady Eleanor, by Alilo. Duke of Qrafton's f. Tiara, by Soothsayer. Lord Verulam's f. bv Comas. out of Laurel Leaf. AMr. Rogers named Iffr. Prendergast's by Soothsayer. And threeothers not named in the card. The winner was rtle by Robinson. The next was for the WVoodcot-park Stakes of ten sovereigns eaclh, with ten sovereigns added from the race fund, for 3-year olds and up. wards. The last half mile. This was also easily won. Four horses started. Alr. Petit's gr. f. Bravura.1 Ur. Page's ch. h. Alortiner. 2 M1r. Neville's b. f. Pinwire. Lord Verulain's b. m. Venom. IMIr. Aellish's qb. f. by Young Gohanna, was matched against Alr. Edwards's ch. f. by Soothsayer, for 1001, each. The latter walked over the course. The last, and by far the best race to.dav, was for a plate of 501., for all ages, the winner to be sold for 2001., if demanded * 2 mile heats. In the first heat Norna came in without whipping, but not with ease, Cauyp pressing bard upon ber, by dint of whip and spur; whilstalltheothers, exceptMyAunt, puDledlup as soon as they had passed the distance-post, in order to reserve themselves for the second heat, which is generally gained by bottom, as the first is by s eed. Cut'p having tried his utmost, tound he had no chance, and tYerefore withdrew, as did two others: only three starting for the second heat, namely, Norma, Phantom and My Aznt. 'this heat was won bv Pkantom, with a facility, which showed that another heat offered but a hopeless chance for his antagonists. The three, however, again started, and Phantom again came in without dis. tremsing himself. The horses which ran were- Mr. Rush's b. c. by Phantom, 3 yrs. old. . 4 1 1 ILr. Mercer's b. ti. Norna, 6 yrs. . . 1 2 2 Major Ormsby Gore's b. b. Cuyp . . 2 0 0 Alr. Braithwaite's b. f. Aly Aunt, 4 yrs. 3 3. 3 Alr. Pettit's gr. h. Marauder, 5 yrs. . 5 0 0 Mr. Tyrwhitt Jones's ceh. h. Bacchanal, 5 yrs. 6 0 0 In consequence of there being three heats for this rate. and a delay occasioned in the earlier part of the day, by Rebecca having smashed a plate just as the liorses were about to start for the Oaks. the running Wa.s not over until between six and seven o'clock. M1ost of the coi pany had left the ground before the last heat was ran. His Royal Highness thle Duke of Glocester, however, remained to see the race decided. Up to the period of our coming away, nothing unpleasant ocurred; but we will not answer for what may have happened afterwards to those whose good taste induced them to stop with the pickpockets, to seea Gipsy and another vagabond fight. .PSOM RACES.
