SPORTING IN7ELLIG.ENC.E.

BET FING AT MANCHESTER-MONDAY.

For the Two Thousand Guineas eight fifties were laid
against The Marquis, but afterwards, to smaller amounts,
7 to 1 was taken, which was the only change en that event.
Caractacus was in force both for the Derby and Chester
Cup, closing for the latter at 100 to 8 (taken). Jung Fran
Wild Rose, Rubicon, and Stampedo were much inquired
after as outsiders. Agag did not appear quite so firm, for,
although 20 to 1 was at first taken, it was afterwards freely
offered. Nothing was done on the Newmarket Handicap
Closing prices :
