THE BETTING MARKET.
In local betting circles there are only a few transactions to record on the Grand National Meeting, and those are confined to double betting, backers evidently waiting for the declaration of final acceptances. For the Steeples Norton, Couranto and Whalebone are in most favour, and for the Hurdles Norton, Couranto and Waterbury. Whisper has been nibbled at for the N.Z. Cup, but the Melbourne and Caulfield Cup betting is practically a dead letter. Our Wellington correspondent writes that there is nothing fresh in the betting world to report from there, except that Don Pedro has been backed quietly for the N.Z. Cup for all the money in the market, at xoo to 6 and xoo to 7.
