TATTERSALL'S.—MoNDAy.
The meeting at the rooms to-day was sot only deficient
iu numbers, but there was a marked absence of the
" gentlemen," and a consequent dearth of interest in the
proceedings. The only feature of the afternoon was the
retrogression of Plaudit, against whom there was a mani-
fest disposition to lay, and an unwilligneu, equally ob-
servable, among tbe few backers present to accept the
comparatively liberal odds offered against the Richmond
colt. Ile was backed, it is true, at 9to 2 in two or three
instances for the Two Thousand Guineas, but for small
:mounts only, awl in the end this offer went begging.
About Hermit there was a similar degree of indifference,
for although an occasional investment was made at :r to 1,
these odds were readily obtainable to any amount,
and the only other transactions that eame under
our notice for this event were a small outlay on
Master Butterfly at the quoted odds, and a single
investment on Troculero at :AM to 15. For the Derby
The Rake maintained his position of first favourite at
7 to 1, but the horse most inquired after was D'Estournel,
who was freely supported at II to L, and thus supplanted
Plaudit fur second favouritism. Dram! truss was also in
request, and a gentleman intrusted with a commission in
his favour, after vainly endeavouring to obtain 1000 to :Cr,
was content to accept the odds offered, 21 to 1. The re-
maining transactions were Master Butterfly, supported at
1000 to :0, The Priest at :So to I, and Avron at 1900 to n.
A bet was also laid of :AM to KA on Dragon against Grand
Cross. The prices at the close were as follows:
