BETTING AT MANCHESTER—YESTERDAY.
No important change occurred in the Cesarewitch bet-
ting. Golden Pippin was rather freely supported ; the
highest offer towards the close was 3to 1. Dulcibella was
not in such great force ; 100 to 7 was taken, but afterwards
100 to 6 was freely offered. Plumper and The Alderman
were in fair demand at their respective prices, and a little
money was put on Mavourneen at 25 to 1 ; but, as is often
the case, when there is little business bang done, the offers
predominated.—Closing prices :

THE "PROPHETS" ON THE CESARE WITCH.
The following are several of the prophecies of the sport-
ing writers on the Cesarewitch. They are principally from
the weekly publications, as the dailies will not appear till
Monday :
" Beacon," in _Bell's Life, after analysing the chances of
the various horses likely to take part in the race, winds up
by saying :—" Having thus briefly noted my opinion of
the respective competitors likely to contend for the great
handicap of the year, it will be easily seen that on

MAVOURNEEN
I rest my hopes ; and I shall expect to see Ben Webster,
Ancient Briton, Sandy I\lTherson, and Rising Sun hold
a forward position at the termination of the struggle."

" Rhyming Richard," in Bell's Life, concludes with the
following verses :
" But one, I know, who, should he go,
In spite of saint and sinner,
The stake will land, and so I stand
On WEATHERBOUND for winner I
" Yet, if the oracles arc dumb,'
Health or forestalment letting,
And Weatherbound declines to ' come,'
And totters in the betting,
" Then must my Muse her friend refuse,
Which cruel to believe is;
Or with him take, for safety's sake,
The little Buckthorn—BEVlS."

" Touchstone," of the Era, says :—We can see nothing
equal to MAVOURNEEN, PLUMPER, and BARABEIS among
the light weights, and with Starke and Bevis under suspi-
cion, the heavy weights should be 11,31 d safe by ANCIENT
BRITON, THE BREWER, and ALDERMAN; the lot we are
justly entitled to stand upon as our selected, seeing there is
not one of the first four favourites among them, and if we
may presume to spot the first three,

MAVOURNEEN, BARABBAS, and ANCIENT

BRITON

would be tho lot upon which our selection would fall, and in
the order named.

" The Stable Mouse," of the Era, says :—Do you know
that I have been watching Golden Pippin all this year ?
and what wretched performances hers have been, haven't
they ? But what are performances when there is a Cesare-
witch in view ? The money is the thing, and see how they
have been heaping the money on. There is, I think, little
mistake in it. Now for my pick. I must take two—in a
race like the Cesarewitch I ought to be allowed two—l must
be allowed two, and I will have two, and they are
GOLDEN PIPPIN, or BEN WEBSTER ;
and you'll find that I'm near the mark.

The writer in the Sunday Times concludes his letter as
follows :—Taking certain " moves" into consideration—for
public performances go for nothing in the Cesarewitch—we
shall stand upon

GOLDEN PIPPIN,
and the next two in our fancy are NEWCASTLB and
OPTIMIST.

" Nemo," of the Horning Advertiser, says :—The win-
ner is likely to emanate from the following half-dozen
Yrs st lb Yrs st lb
Comforter 4 8 6 Dulcibella 3 6 11
Cape Flyaway .... 3 8 1 Golden Pippin
Ben Webster .... 3 7 9 Plumper

"Augur," of the Sporting Life, concludes by saying "To
attempt to unravel the Cesarewitch problem is no easy
task, but in selecting

BARABBAS AND KILLIGREW,

some guide may be given to those who are endeavouring
to discover the royal road to fortune. Golden Pippin's pre-
tensions I most decidedly repudiate, and shall even ex •
pect to see horses like Sandy McPherson finish before her.
Should either of my champions be vanquished, Moorcock
will most likely accomplish their overthrow.

" Olympus," of the Sporting Telegraph, writes :—" Upon
public form (always the best criterion) Bevis is the only
animal that W. Day possesses capable of winning, and as
that is all I have to found my opinion upon I must stick to
Bevis, despite the appearance of the market, which is dead
against mo. In making my final choice let me stand on

BEVIS and KILLIGREW to win, and failing, the
GOLDEN PIPPIN.

" Observer," of the .Ficid, says :—" In conclusion, when
compelled to record one's impressions so long prior to the
day, some allowance should be mado for a change in the
market and casualties, and therefore I prefer taking a lot to
standing upon one singly. Mine, therefore, shall bo
GOLDEN DTILCII3ELLA, COMFORTER, MOORCOCK,
ANCIENT BRITON, and BAIL. BBAS, and I trust the tele-
graphic return will confirm its correctness."
