THE SYDNEY THOUSAND.
Bf telegraph. Press Ass’n, Copyrigh Sydney, March 24.
The finish was most exciting, and so close that the first six riders might almost have been covered with the proverbial blanket. Arnst’s final sprint was a splendidly sustained and plucky effort. He finished so strong that he took all the stiDg out of tho world-famed sprinters. Rutt's great pacing effort to ca’ch the front-rankers, however, told ogainst him wheh he came io push. He beat Payne by half a wheel. Arnst subsequently started in the five mile scratch racp, but failed to get a place, Mayer winning in lOmin S3seo.
