SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

HARPENDEN RACE MEETING.
FRIDAY.

The racing celebrated to-dayai Harpenden was exceed-
ingly good, the nine events appointed for decision produc-
ing largo fields and anticipated finishes. The near approach
of the Derby, and the anticipated heavy speculation there-
on, had something to do with the numerous attendance,
however, and the principal bookmakers being present, I
there were ample opportunities for wagering. Ono of the.,
greatest sensations which has attended the Derby compe-
titors was the receipt this morning of the news that tho
Rake had broken a blood vessel. The intelligence was at
first doubted, but directly there was an assemblage in the
ring it received a confirmation by loud offers to lay against
him. D'Estournel, who, it was reported, had gone amiss,
was also attacked by the layers, and finally he receded to
the "hundred to ono" division, at which prico he was
friendless. Of course the retrogression of The Rake mate-
rially influenced the position of Vauban and Van Am-
burgh, the Two Thousand winner being immediately
backed at 2 to 1, and when those odds were not obtainable
7 to 4 was accepted, but only to trifling amounts, layers
for the most part declining to advance a point over 600 to
to 400 all the afternoon. Van Ainburgh was hacked to
win a large stake, his opening price being 6 to 1, but that
money a t 100 to 6, and when was inquired after,
was eagerly taken, and when the layers offered 11 to 2
those odds wore snapped up, as were also the s's to 1 ob-
tainable, and the " lion-tamer's " closing price was 9 to 2.

only 100 to 7 was offered
against him. These odds were taken about Marksman,
but offered at the close. Grand Cross at 25 to 1 was in
some demand, but at the same figure The Palmer and
Dragon were friendless. Hermit at 30 to 1 could not find a
supporter, while Plaudit at ten points more was backed for
small sums only,but had anything over those odds been forth-
coming he would have had more friends. 1,000 to 20 was ac-
cepted about Fitz Ivan, but it was offered at the close. The
"Squire" laid Mr. Steel 1,000 to 15 against his own horse,
Gipsy King ; but the last named gentleman announcing his
intention to "go on," ho was accommodated with 1,000 to
18 three times and 1,000 to 20 twice, and finally he offered
to back the Wanderer" against Ben Nevis, and expressed
hiswillingnesst
to
lay 5,000 to 4,000. At 1,000 to 15 the
last quoted horse was backed several times, but that price
was offered at the close. A detailed list of quotations will
be found appended. The racing, which was of a very in-
teresting character, is fully detailed below.
