AUTRALIAN TURF. Received Oct. 4, 10.15 p.m. Sydney, Oct. 4. Tiie weather i 3 fine, and race prospects are bright. Epsom acceptors also include Killowen.— £us. und N.Z. Cable Assoc. DISAPPOINTMENT OVER BIPLANE. Sydney, Oct. 4. Spoilsmen are keenly disappointed that the long expected meeting between Desert Gold and Biplane has again been postponed. After a gallop at Randwick yesterday Biplane displayed symptoms of lameness. The vet traced the troublo to abound to the bone of the off fore leg, and advised Mr. Greenwood to forfeit nil Biplane's Randwick and Victorian engagements and turn the horse out for a lengthy spell. The vet thinks the trouble has been developing for some time, and probably accounts for Biplane's poor display in the Roseh'lll Handicap and his erratic track gallops. Mr. Greenwood decided that if Gloaming wins an amount equivalent to what Biplane would have earned if successful in the Spring Stakes he will present it to the patriotic funds. —Aus. and N.Z. Cable Assoc.

TURF TOPICS. (By "Moturoa"). A.J.C. Derby to-day. Waverley weights on Wednesday. Chortle is reported to foe a "gone coon." Bert. Coyle will handicap for Avondule this season. Cooing is lame, and will not be a starter at Opaki. C. Emerson (0) and H. Gray (0) are the leading jockeys this season. Cathedral Chimes Ims been backed as if the New Zealand Trotting Cup is all over. Gloaming is a warm favorite for the AJ.C. Derby, but Pinmark should keep him busy over the final quarter. Seventeen New Zealand Cup candidates are carded at Masterton. Weights are duo to-day. lienakus promises to keep the opposition very busy in the "hurry ups" at the Masterton meeting. The many Inglewood friends of "Sandy" Chapman (who recently returned from the front) will regret to hear that the old sport is lying seriously ill In an Auckland hospital. . • An interesting photo in last week's Sporting Review depicts Mr. /ercy Johnson farewelling his soldier son (Corporal P. J. Johnson), who left with the 43rd Reinforcements. Bon voyage ruid a sate return. Of the thirty-six horses entered for the-Now , Zealand Cup only four were weighted above 1 8st. Some of our leading jocksters will require to do some "wasting" before November 4, which, by the way, is only a month from to-day. Client and Menolaus are nominal favorites for the New Zealand Cup, and Saaanoff, Margarine, Glendowev, Ktllard, Volo, Teka and | Mnngamahoe are most favored of the others. I Staccato Is reported to be galloping very well at Wavorley, and promises to take some catching in the Wilson* Stakes there. I When Gloaming won the Chelmsford Stakes 'he only carried 6.10. With 2st more on his back to-day he may not havte such a walk over, j Trainer J. H. 'Prosser; will lirobably be reptfeI sented at the Dunedin meeting by Stirrup Cup, I Lisp, Nocturnal and Talitha. Cannie Chlel, who was recently purchased by a Westland sportsman, died while en route to his new home last.week. Amongst the horses entered at Masterton are Volo; Depredation, Kewt Poto, Inah, Hyginas, Genskus, Polthogue, Robur, Royal Park, Trombone, Rawakore and Royal Chef. Form Up continues to be written down as a non-stayer, but Paddy Eva reckons the critics nre all wrong, rerhaps he will turn up trumps at Masterton. A very moderate lot are engaged in the Hurdles at Waverley, and Zola will be giving a lot ot' weight away to most of his opponents. An entry of fourteen for the Waverley Cup Is very disappointing. With the exception of llydrus the entrants are all trained in this province. The Morton Memorial Handicap looks to be made to order for Otongo, who ran so well at Uawera tbo oilier day. Although Glendower Is one of the early favorites for the New Zealand Cup, it is stated on good authority that tlio Great Autumn winner will not be prepared for the race. Sasanoff is getting through useful tasks at Napier, and if landed at the post fit and well would give tlio New Zealand Cup a big shake. "Moturoa" enjoyed a diverting incident at a recent meeting. A youthful jockster, whose mount lind run second in a race, was warmly sprnked by Ms father (a trainer). The old man said, "Take that, you young blanker. I'll tench you to go to sleep on a horse that I've got good money on." * Once more these who looked forward to a meeting between Desert Gold and Biplane are doomed to disappointment. Mr. T, It. Lowry has chased the Greenwood crack all over Australasia, but the long-looked-for contest is as! far off as ever. If Biplane's lameness is serious | it ia a matter for regret, but after the Manawatu fiasco punters are inclined to look with sus-; p'.dou ou Biplane's ailments. Recent Sydney papors state that Gloaming is still* (i firm farorlte for tho A.J.C. Derby, while iPlitmark and Outlook are level second favorites, Almoner having receded In the betting ow- ; lug to his lameness. Dotalls of the running of the Rosehlll Guineas show that Pinmark, who was an odds on order, tried to win from end to ond, and it was not until tho legcf was reached that anything threatened trouble. O'Shea glanced round, and, seeing Woorawa camte got the whip out, but Finmark had run himself out, and the 'Stralian beat" him pointless. It was rather a tall order to ask Pinmark to run such a race, and he may do much better if differently handled in the Derby. Finmark's defeat at Rosehlll was a facer for -followers of Lowry's colors, and another shock

was administered to the public the same afterSpring Stakes. The Comedy King horse looked noon when Biplane shaped ingloriously in the really , well, and was always a hot favorite, finishing up at odds on.. He drew an outside position at the post, and when the barrier rose swcuvcd and made a regular detour over the first half furlong. At the half mile he was lying fifth, but at the turn he was palpably beaten, and was eased up, finishing at the tall end of the field. Estlaud never got near the front, but was running on strongly in sixth place when tho post was reached. Panacre threatens to start a firm favorite for the lipsom Handicap. Next In demand, according to the latest Referee, are Publican, Dame Acre, Norbury, Tho Destroyer and Poitrlna. Fimnark's share of the Rosehili Guineas was £157 10s., i Mr. ft. L. Stead got a nice price with Kilinoou when the Kllbroney colt won the Roschill Handicap. Tlio New Zen lander finished with j great ganleness, and wore down the favorite i (Thana) over the final furlong..
