TATTERSALL'S—MONDAY.
Although we were enabled to compile a somewhat
long list of quotations, yet the actual business trans-
acted was very limited. Time was principally occupied
by the settling of the Lincoln accounts.
LIVERPOOL STEEPLECHASE.-9 to 1 was once betted
against Minos, but at the close he was supported at 8 to
1. E;cape, whose retrogression we recorded a fortnight
ago, advanced to 100 to 8. In City circles he had been
backed for some money at 100 to 7. Jean du Quesne
was in much request at 20 to 1. Early in the afternoon
25 to 1 was taken about Freetrader, but at the close 20
to 1 was booked.

Two THOUSAND.-5 to 1 was offered on the field, 6
to 1 wool! have been taken to money about Lo'la.
The odds quoted against Vedette were booked four or
five times.

DERBY.—The principal investment was that which
caused the return of Blink Bonny to 14 to 1. At first
25 to 1 to 101. and 20 to 1 to 501. were laid against her,
and at last 14 to 1 to 1001, was taken. Zuyder Zee
seemed to have an upward tendency at the odds quoted.
22 to 1 was betted against Bird-in-the. Hand, and after-
wards offered. Kent was firm at 28 and 30 to 1, the
latter odds being withdifficultyobtained.
