SPORTING TIVTELLIGENOR.

CHICSTER RAbICEi—TzuseDAT.

There we. an nreeable change in the weather oa the "off
day," but the card promised sport only equal to that of each
of the previous days of the fallen meeting, whilst in point of
attendance it seemed soaroaly
.up to rtes avenge of the
Thursdays in the Chester meeting. The filet event, the
Chester Welter Cup, was run at • quarter past 2, Eidolon
and Foutenoy enjoying the confides°e of backers, whilst the
hostility of the bookmakers was mostly directed against
the Northamptonshire Stakes favourite—Knuteford—who
had no friends at 7to 1. The judgment of "the talent*
was vivified to the letter, as the two favourites quitted
their dopoosota upon entering the straight; the result
thus proving the correctness of the market, as Eidolon won
by a neck. The half mile spin—the Benny Handicap—
browlit another " five" to the post, and open the strength
of • high private reputation, Antipodes was made a "hot
un," and despite the numerous fruitless attempt. to effect a
start, in all of which the favourite ma by far the longest
distance, be won finally with consummate ease. Dictator
and Caller Oa divided the boomers of favouritism for the
Marquia of Westminster's Plate, which was woo by the
Spigot hone after the mare bad been disappointed. The
Dee Stara, which has been noted for the overthrow of
favoturites, only produced • match between Borealis sad New-
