TATTERSALL'S-YESTERDAY.

Although several events were brought under notice,
speculation moved but slowly.
For the Ascot Stakes 6 to 4 was booked to a good
deal of money about the favourite, the layers being the
first to slacken. 100 to 15 was taken three or four
times about Nervous 10, 9, and Bto 1 about King
Pepin, and similar Odds to various small sums about
Little Davie. 1001. were laid out in favour of Russ-
borough, at 12 to 1.
Investments at 2 to 1 about Pelion for the Gold Vase
had the effect of sending him out of the market for the
Emperor's Plate ; 5 to 2 and 2 to 1 were taken about
Rataplan, but the outlay was only very moderate.
EMPEROR'S PLATE.—At the commencement 2 to 1
was taken repeatedly in hundreds about each of the
leading favourites ; towards the close, however, 5 to 2
was laid against each. Finally, Stockwell had decidedly
the call of Teddington, 2 to 1 being taken about him,
and sto 2 laid against the latter. Kingston, reported
en route, advanced from 10 to 8 to 1 taken ; 10 and 9
to 1 taken about Defiance; and 12 to 1 to "a little "
about Weathergage.
The Derby betting was especially remarkable for the
number of horses backed at so early a period at 25 and
20 to 1 ; the circumstance is, to the best of our remem-
brance, quite unparalleled.
At the conclusion of business the quotations were as
