The only Cup horses out were Tim WhiiHer, Welcome Jack, Envious, Tasman, and Adamant, and all did very serviceable work, especially Welcome Jack, and Envious, who covered tho mile and a half in splendid style. Dime, in a fast half-mile, showed capital form. Marion and Ugly Buck went once round, finishing very fast. Siesta and Johnny Faulkner covered a mile at racing speed, the mare having the best of it. Emir Bey went two miles at half pace. Molly Bawn and Violin went twice round, the former pulling up lame. Rubina, Mischief, and Tim Whiflor did two miles at three-quarter pace in good stylo. All the steeplechasers did good useful work. There is very little alteration in the betting market. Hippodamia is hardening for tho Cup, 100 to 12 being about her.
