SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S-YESTERDAY.

Notwitstanding the absence of several subscribers at
Liverpool, the betting yesterday teal more spirited than

favourite, and was backed at 17, 16, and lastly 15 to 1.
A trifle was laid out upon " The Knight," but without im-
proiing Ifs position. His companion, Marshal Soult, re-
ceded a point cr two. Some of the outsiders found
patrons, but not at prices worth (Aber notice than the

LIVERPOOL STEEPLE CHASE.

The Great Liverpool Steeple Chase, which has been
an object of interest for some time, took place on Wed-
nesday afternoon, at Aintree Race-course.
The race was for a Sweepstakes of 20 sovereigns each,
5 forfeit, with 100 sovereigns added, for hones of all de-
nominations, carrying 12st. each ; the winner of the
Cheltenham Steeple Chase in 1840 to carry 181bs. extra;
the second horse to save his stake; no rider to go through
any gateway, or more than 100 yards along any road or
footpath; any of the horses going over any of the leaps
b4ore the race to be disqualified.
The following started Rode by
Legacy .
Seventy-four Mr. Whitworth
Goblin

Lottery
Seqin
.

Cigar
Hawk •••
Charity
Revealer Mr. Parker
Oliver Twist
Peter Simple Mr. Walker
The betting on the Grand Stand, as far as could be
ascertained, was 5 to 2 vgst Lottery, 6 to 1 agst Peter
Simple, 7 to 2 agst Cigar, 9 to 1 agst Seventy-four, 50 to
4 aga Oliver Twist, 50 to 1 agst the Hawk, 20 to 1 agst
Revealer, 20 to 1 cgst Selim, and 10 to 1 agst Charity.
At starting Selim tock the leaf at a good pace, Cigar
second, the rest in a cluster, and they got well on till they
came to the first leap in a followed field, leading into a
short meadow, the spot in which Lottery last yesr made
a leap, it is said, of 33 feet. Here Selim, still main-
taining the lead, git over first, followed by Cigar,
Charity, Legacy, and Lottery, the Hawk and Peter
Simple last ; they maintained nearly the same position
till they came to the two leaps near the canal bridge,
where the road crosses the canal. Here Selim was sti 1 first,
the others well up. In nearly this position they arrived at
the training ground, where a rush took place, Lottery en-
tering it first, Cigar second, the rest following. Befure
reaching the hurdle, Cigar had the lead, and was first
over; all the others got well over, Oliver Twist breaking
it down. Tho brook next presented itself, and it was
cleated by Cigar and Oliver Twist abreast, Lottery
third. and the others close behind, with the exception of
Goblin, who was some yards in smear. He, however,
soon made up his lost ground, and was again with the
leading horse. On entering the starting field, the
second time round, Lottery, Cigar, and another kept
by themselves, the others kept to the right. Here
Selim again came in front, followed by Lottery and
Legacy, Seventy-four, Hawk, and Goblin along way be-
hind. Here Oliver fell, but his rider instantly remounted.
Selim fell else, but no damage. After clearing the canal
bridge, they ran home, Lottery entering the course first,
but it was evident that he could not hold it, on account
of the extra weight. The race was well contested up the
course. Charity got over the dit-th first, and won by a
couple of lengths. Cigar Leirg second, Oliver Twist
third, Goblin f)urth, and Lottery amongst the group.
Charity is the property of Mr. Elmore, who declared to
win either with him or Lottery. That gentleman bas
thus been the winner of the Liverpool Steeple Chase three
years in SUCCCES'Or.

Betting-7 to 4 agst Rust, 6to 1 agst Prince, and 10 to 1
agst any other.
True Blue made the running to the canal turn, where
Duenna, Rust, and Defence headed him, and ran together till
they had jumped the last hurdle, when Jupiter went up, and by
dint of fine riding, won by half a length.
Two finer races were never seen in this or any other course,
and it is satisfactory to add that the pleasures of the day were
not alloyed either by accident or wrangle.
