SPORTING EVTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL' S--YESTERDA.T.
A great show of business was made, but if the actusl
transactions were not important, yet the incidents of specu-
lation were sufficient to excite Curiosity. The most inte-
resting movements were with regard to the Two Thousand.
5 to 1 was laid once to a poney against The Promised Land,
who was not exactly firm, and those odds might have been
obtained with ltttle difficulty throughout the afternoon. A
report was circulated to the effect that Ralpho, who has
recently been very unsteady in the market, had 'been sold
by Lord Zealand, and that the horse had quitted Yorkshire
and is now located at Joseph Dawson's stable at Ilsley. 10
to 1 was offered against him; Phantom, perhaps, being the
second favourite.
The Chester Cup quotations do not require comment, and
the only material change in the Derby betting was the fur-
ther retrogression of Viking to 1,000 to 15.
