No Betting.

MANCH ESTE DAY.
There has been very little done during the week upon future
events: To-day paying and receiving upon Coventry and Don-
caster meetings occupied the whole of the time usually devoted
to betting; and we may say, however, that High Slie:iff would
have been backed at anything above 15 to 1 for the Chester
Cup; and there were offers to back Scarecrow against anything
bar one.
