Glengarry, I presume, will be ridden by his owner, ' Thorp, in which c«ae his weight will bo 125t.51b.; and Nutna, 12st., by Mr. E. Woodfield. Numa givet Satellite lib. more than he does in the Metropolitan. These weights are very nearly welter, and, as I should consider Satellite better able to carry it than . Numa, I should look for Satellite to bett the pony, and he again to giye place to Glengarry, who will come to this race a fresh horse, and will moreover hare the "talent" up, a thing not to be orerlooked, and compared to which the 51b. penalty is a fleaThia brings the first day's .running to a finish. Let us hqpe, r thaft $• weather will be fine, the attendance good, 1 and that th« best horse may win. NuNqcrxK Dormio.
