TATTERSALL'S. —Aran. 12.

It will be perceived that there was little alteration yes-
terday in the odds on the Derby and Oaks; but forii the
Riddlesworth some slight change is observable. M toe-
lake was backed freely at improved odds, and it is Milted
that be is more likely to start than Glenartney, who, how-
ever, in the midst of this uricertainty, keeps his piaee.
Cressida and Shoveller are out of the' market,' and it is
doutful whether they will start. Both Lord GrOsireqor's,
it is said, will come cut: they have been backed to some
amount. Another week will make ,wonderful alterations.
The present odds are as follow
