SPORTING INTELLIGENCE

TATTERSALL'S-MONDAY.

There was a very good attendance this afternoon, and
betting was carried on with some spirit, especially on the
Chester Cup and Derby. For the former 100 to 6 was offered
against Anfield, but nothing would induce backers to invest
at the price. Blackdown was the lion of the day, and after

1,000 to 40 had been booked about him several times 20
"fifties" were accepted, the like odds being also noted in
favour of his stable companion, Accident. Carisbrook and
Muezzin were each in force at 25 to 1, and towards the close
of business Change, about whom there were some warm in-
quiries, would have been supported at 33 to 1, to money.
Whitethorn, the reputed "cock of the north," was in consi-
derable demand, 33 to 1 having been taken kindly. 40 to 1.
each was offered against Lord Westmoreland's three, with-
out a response. The Two Thousand was very little touched
upon, the few bets quoted below being only to small amounts.
Scottish Chief continues to improve his position in the
Derby betting, for which he is again first favourite, but al-
though his followers and retainers all spoke well of him,
offers of 10 to 1 would not tempt them to give him any fur-
ther support ; later on, however, 2,100 to 200 was snatched
up and divided between two stanch adherents of " the
Chief." Paris was decidedly "fishy," 13 to 1 being freely
offered. Coastguard was such a hot favourite that all the
14's to 1 were caught up in no time, and as only 13 to 1 was
afterwards obtainable the commission in his favour could
not be executed. The two " dark" cracks, Forager and Blair
Athol,were somewhat mysterious, 1,000 to 55, or a fraction
over 18 to 1, being accepted about Lord St. Vincent's horse
while the northern champion was friendless at 18 to 1. His-
torian was firm at his previously-quoted price-23 to 1
(taken). The retrogression of Paris was followed by the
advance of his stable companion, Idler, who was backed in
quarters where something is usually known at 30 to 1
