SPORTING INTELLIG.E NOE.

TATTERSA L L'S -MONDAY.

Subscribers mustered numerously, and business exhi-
bited a marked improvement. Some of the investments
on the Derby were to a large amount, atd two or three
important changes were produced. At the commence-
ment, 11 to 1 was taken to 2001. about De Clare ; but
the silent indifference with which the taker heard the
same odds repeatedly offered afterwards at length in
duced two or three bookmakers to try the effect of a
point more—their offers were then caught up with avi-
dity, until he had increased his investments to upwards
of 500/. The movement was sufficiently significant,
and, after a brief pause, De Clare became distinctly the
leading favourite, 1,000 to 100 being taken twice.
Meanwhile 500 even was betted on him against Omen-
lus Esuriens, and 11 to 1 was currently offered against
the latter " outright." St. Hubert was backed at 12
and 11 to 1, and bad an advancing tendency at the close;
12 to 1 was taken to 2001. about The Lord of the Isles,
and 15 to 1 to 2001. about Rifleman ; Oulston, close
up to him, was firm, notwithstanding the support
which was given to St. Hubert; 1,000 to 45 was
taken about Wild Dayrell; 20 to 1 to 3001. about Poly-
dore ; 40 to 1 in fifties about Aurifer ; and 1,000 to 15
about The Bison, The quotations at the close were as
follows:
