TA TTERSA ' S—YEsrgnnA r.
Driven from Newmarket by the miserable state of the weather,
the want of attraction in the races, and the departure of most of the
Derby horses, the subscriberkassembled in cmisideratte numbers,
and business, interrupted repeatedly by speculatict.is on the elec-
tkn, was toleeably brisk, at. prices differing, in many respects,
from those last quoted by Very little money was laid out
upon Rat-trap, who, nevertheless, kept his ground, although 400
to 101 was backed against him at the commencement of the after-
noon. Mango's friends supported him at Bto 1 with greet spirit,
and made him second favourite ; I ,800 to 200, and several eights
to one were take about Caravan, but most of the other leading fa-
vourites gave way two or three • points. At one part of the after-
Sambo and Defender made a start, the thirties to one finding
such ready takers, that we expected to gratify their " original"
backers by quoting them at about 20 to 1 each ; unfortunately for
them the movement was not sustained, and the one (Rambo) closed
at only ten points in advance of the old i.rice, and the other at fif-
teen point.; worse. Jerred, too, was degraded to the same unpro-
mising- class. A few bets were made on the Oaks, and two on the
ahnest-forgotten St. Leger, without any change in the odds.
