SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

CHESTER RACES—TUESDAY.
The rain, which fell copiously during the greater part of
Monday evening, rendered the course splendid " going."
There was a large influx of metropolitan and provincial
visitors on Monday, and in the evening the Subscription-
room was well attended, but the betting on the Cup was
limited. Lord Zetland was the only animal supported with
spirit, he being backed at 13 to 1 for £250, whilst The
Tippler was entrusted with a " pony" at 40 to 1 by his
noble owner. In other respects the quotations received from
Tattersall's underwent no change. Tuesday morning was
showery till eight o'clock, and the atmosphere appeared
threatening until noon, when the sun shone forth brilliantly,
and a pleasant breeze blowing made the afternoon's sport
very enjoyable. The feature of the morning's betting was
the retrogression of Accident, who was disliked by the
" horse-watchers" almost to a man. Continued offers of 7
to 1 failing to find customers, an advance of a point over
these odds was ventured, upon which Accident had friends,
and was firm at Bto 1. Muezzin was not in such good
odour, but his stable companion, the Hersey filly, was
supported at 11 to 2, Little Stag at 100 to 8. and Canary
from 100 to 30 down to 20 to 1, This latter price was
taken and offered each about Oldminster and Bacchus.
The first race was fixed for 2.15, a ridiculously late hour,
and which consequently leit us little or no time to make any
comments on the racing, our parcel having to be despatched
so early. Four came to the post for the Grosvenor Stakes,
Tippler being made favourite at 7 to 4, and the Marquis of
Hastings's horse won in a canter. Immediately after the
race several of the bookmakers who had in the morning laid
long prices against Tippler were so anxious to "get out" that
prices ranging from 25 to Ito2o to 1 were taken, The
Chesterfield Stakes was a rare turn-up for the fielders, as
Capt. Gray's Windham—never once mentioned in the bet-
ting—bowled over the favourites in hollow style. Four
only came to the post for the Mostyn Stakes, which was won
easily by Nothing More. The remainder of the running we
are unable to comment upon for the reason given above.
The Grosvenor Stakes of 10 sovs each, h ft, with 50 added,
for 3-yr-olds and upwards; winners extra, and certain
allowances. Grosvenor Course, about a mile and a quar-
ter. 10 subs.

Betting-6 to 4 agst Tippler, 2to 1 aget Veterinarian, 5
to 2 agst Despair, 20 to 1 agst Stanton.
After one " break away" Tippler, Despair, and Stanton
came on two lengths in front of Veterinarian for a couple of
hundred yards, when Tippler took a clear lead, followed by
Stanton, Despair, and Veterinarian, at short intervals, until
they arrived three-quarters of a mile from home, when
Veterinarian became second and Despair last. A quarter of
a mile from home Despair took second place, but could never
reach Tippler, who had made all the running after the first
200 yards, and won easily by a length; three parts of a
length separated the second and third, and two lengths
divided the third and fourth.
Before the race 40 to 1 was offered aget Tippler for the
Chester Cup, but afterwards 1,000 to 40 having been eagerly
accepted he was subsequently supported at 20 to 1.

" They were despatched at the first attempt, but only to
indifferent start. Worthless, Windham, and Persuasion
got off the best, the latter making play with a slight lead
to the three-quarter of a mile post, where Macbeth ran
past his horses, and Windham dropped away three or four
lengths from the leading trio, which comprised Macbeth,
Persuasion, and Worthless. Rounding the Castle turn
Macbeth disappeared from the front, and entering the cords
Persuasion, on the inside, held the lead, having Windham
and Seaboy close with him, nothing else having any chance.
At the distance Windham challenged and won a good race
by a neck; Sea Boy a bad third; Worthless was fourth,
Macbeth fifth, Charlotte Russe sixth, and the Pretty Girl
filly last.
