SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
T ATTERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY.
The betting touched upon all the great events at Ascot,
and led to several changes. Commencing with the
Queen's Vase, we may note considerable improvement in
Cuntzou, against whom the highest offer at the c'ose was
5 to 4; 9 to 1 was taken that she wins it and the Empe-
ror's Plate. Essedarius opened first favourite for the
.Ascot Stakes, but subsequently gave precedence to St.
Antonio, who was backed freely at 3 to 1; no others were
in force. There was not much done on the Triennial
Stakes, but the two leading favourites were in steady
favour; Nunnykirk, who was not included in our list of
arrivals, goes for this race, and was backed for it at 6
and Btol, to about 1001. Van Tromp at one time had
the call of Chanticleer for the Emperor's Plate, hut re-
ceded to 5 to 2, the gray obtaining the premiership; 5 to
1 was taken that he wins it and The Flying Dutchman
the St. Leger. Cossack was backed for a good deal of
money at 4 to 1, at which the taker wane d to go on.
Nothing quotable was done on the Sr. Leger. Some
business was done towards the close on the Derby, Wil-
liam the Conqueror, The Italian, and Moul:au being
most in rd quest. Closing prices:—
