BETTING IN LONDON.—TRUESDLY.
A f tir amount of business was transacted at the clubs
to.d.iy. and there were two or three movements of an ,
important character. For the Lincoln Handicap a small
commission in favour of Czar was executed with some
difficulty at 10 to 1, and a point lees was subsequently sc.
misted to trifling amounts. Offers of 100 to 7 on the
field for the Liverpool Orand National were met by the
occasional acceptance of 100 to 7 about Tusoulanum, but
those odds were forthcoming to the close. Fan and Daisy
were each backed for a little at 15 to 1, but at a point
more some good business might have been done. In the
course of the morning Tennyson was backed to win up-
wards of 2,0)01. at 100 to 6, the backer offering to increase
his outlay, but offers were shortened to 100 to 7. The
position of Shakspean3 was not materially bettered, for
although ti to 1 was now and then taken, there were
still numerous offers to lay. An ugly demonstration at
one time set in against Port Royal, as much as 50 to 1
Lid ; subsequently, however, he was partially rescued,
and in the end otters did not exceed Al to 1, with counter
propositious, to accept 40's. Ten ponies were taken about
Fan and Helen coupled, and 500 to 100 Lord Coventry's
and Hr. Barber's lots " mixed." Chester Cup speculation
was almost wholly confined to Abergeldie, 140/. or there-
abouts being invested upon him at 20 to 1. There was no
Two Thousand betting, and for the Derby 1,3.0) to 200
was offered against Rosicrucian. Pace was backed twice
at 500 to A the Investor desiring to bask the horse to
win 2,000/. more. 1000 to 10 was laid against Speculum,
and his friends could have been again accommodated at
1,000 to 12. Prices as follow :
