CITY BETTING-YESTERDAY

The Racing Times says there was a large attendance at
all the sporting localities, and a great deal of business was
doing. Many of the general bookmakers, however,
had left for Chester. A good deal was doing on the
events of the first day at Chester. For the Chester-
field Stakes Ben Webster and Golden Pippin wore
each supported for some money, and 4 to I was taken about
each of them. Professor Dick was backed at 100 to 15, and
Bto 1 taken about Be Quick. For the Palatine Stakes
anything over 2 to 1 was taken each agst Trovatoro and
Odo. For the Winnstay Handicap Traducer was a hot 'un,
5 to 2 being taken to all the money that could be got on ;
Spicebox and Twilight also being backed at 7 to 1
each. For the Mostyn Stakes Big Ben would have been
backed at almost evens against the field.
For the Chester Cup St. Albsns was a great favourite,
anything over 4to 1 being at once taken. Longrange was
next in demand, and 10 to 1 was the highest offer at the
close. 100 to 7 was offered agst Petra, and the same price
was taken about Man at Arms. Birmingham, since Satur-
day, has come with a tremendous rush, and found backers
this morning at 15 to 1 (taken eagerly). 100 to 6 was
booked several times about Gaspard, and 20 to 1 would
have been taken about Blue Ruin, but there were no layers
at that price. 25 to 1 was offered about Satellite and Pro-
mised Land. 40 to 1 was taken about Marine. Viatka and
Timandra were sent to the rightabout, and 100 to 1 was laid
against each.

The Dee Stakes—Upperhand was backed for all the money
that could be got on at 2to 1. Man at Arms was supported
for a small sum at 5 to I.

The Derby—Very little done. Wizard and Umpire were
about 9to 2 each. High Treason and St. Albans were 15
to 1 each.
