SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
TATTERSALL'S—YESTERDAY.
CHESTER CUP.
9 to 1 agst Col. Cradock's Pagan
15 to 1 agst Mr. Bristow's Pharaoh—taken
16 to 1 agst Mr. Collett's Cattonite
20 to 1 agst Mr. Milbank's Sir Robert—t and aftwds off.
20 to 1 agst Duke of Richmond's Red Deer
22'to 1 agst Mr. Tuting's Tacita—taken
25 to 1 agst Mr. lieseltine's The Prior—taken
25 to 1 agst Mr. Stanley's Vakeel—taken
30 to 1 agst Mr. Stebbmg's Celeste—taken
30 to 1 agst Mr. Plummer's Alice Hawthorn
33 to 1 agst Lord Miltown's Scalteen—taken
40 to 1 agst Mr. Mostyn's General Pollock—taken
40 to 1 agst Mr. Speed's Everton—taken.
Out of the lot enumerated above, we may select Pharaoh,
Vakeel, Red Deer, and Tacita, as the most prominently in
demand. The first was backed rather freely at one tune, at
14 and 15 to 1; Vakeel for a considerable amount, at 30 and
33 to 1; and afterwards at an improvement of several points.
The other two and the Prior, if not speculated upon to any
great extent, had supporters enough to raise them to a
premium on last week's prices. Pagan was not in demand,
and a strong opposition agst Sir Robert drove him back to 20
to 1, a fall of six points on the last quotation. 1,000 to 25
each was laid apt Everton and General Pollock.
TWO TIIOUSAND GULNEAS STAKES.
7 to 4 agst Mr. John Day's The Ugly Buck—taken
DERBY.
1100 to 200 agst Scott's lot—taken
13 to 2 agst Mr. John Day's The Ugly Buck—taken
13 to 2 agst Mr. Crockford's Rattan
15 to 1 egst Col. Peel's Orlando--taken
20 to 1 agst Lord Maidstone's Cockamaroo--taken
20 to 1 agst Mr. Lichtwald's Leander
25 to 1 agst Mr. A. Wood's Running Rein
35 to 1 agst Mr. Scott's Sister to Grey Momus colt
40 to 1 agst Mr. Ongley's King of the Gipsies—taken
50 to 1 agst Mr. Thornhill's Apprentice—taken
50 to 1 agst Mr. Payne's Vat colt—taken
50 to 1 agst Mr. J. Osborne's Mount Charles
50 to 1 agst Sir G. Heathcote's Campunero
66 to 1 agst Lord Westminster's Lancet
1000 to 1 agst Sir G. Heatheote's Akbar—taken.
1000 to 1 agst Mr. Peek's Corodino
, 500 even between King of the Gipsies and Apprentice.
The betting against the two favourites, until late in the
day, made it difficult to say which had the call; 300 to 100
was laid against them jointly, 675 to 100 twice, 13 to 2, and
in one instance 7 to 1 in tithes against Rattan; no definite
offers being made either in favour of or against The Ugly
Buck ; towards the close, however, his friends `k came out" a
little, and it becaihe evident that he was again in the ascen-
dant ; 13 to 2 was taken to 100/4 and 11 to 10 laid on him for
choice—with this bet the business as it regarded them was
brought to a close. Orlando was supported with much spirit
at 15 and 16 to 1, and. the Sister to Grey Momus colt eagerly
at 40 to 1, as long as it could be got ; the other movements
were imtnaterial. The appearance of the Sister to Grey
Momus colt amongst the favourites has occasioned a good deal
of discussion as to the right of the parties who backed Scott's
lot prior to the publication of his name as a member of it, to
include him in their bets. A question of the same
kind was raised with regard to Seaport in September last,
and dropped, we believe, with a general understanding, that
although he had been some months at Stockbridge, the bets
laid against John Day's lot should comprehend only such
horses as were specified by name in the list published in
June. The present question is. precisely the same, and in
the opinion of the majority of those spoken to on the subject
ought to be disposed of in the same way.
