' Received August 2, 5.35 p.m. m . Sydney, August 2. I lie newspapers appreciate Amst's good showing in the Sydney Handicap, after being so long out of the game, and with such a short training. He made a slow start, getting nwav only half a length ahead of Ripley, hut before they readied the half mile, he had settled Ripley's chance.
