Sir Amyas has been handicapped 7.5 for the Doncaster, 7.3 for the Sydney Cup and 7.5 in the Warwick Farm Autumn Cup. Beau Vite will make his first public appearance When be gives an exhibition gallop at the Victoria Park races tomorrow. He has made considerable progress in the last rortnight, his three furlongs at Hand-wick this morning, 37 4s, being accomplished like a horse nearing ntnesrs. Sir Amyas was not on the track but there is nothing wrong with him. Beaulivre is a doubtful quantity this season, | lita form being very much below par and has railed to show improvement. There previously was some doubt as to whether High caste would be starting in the Doncaster, but his owner today expressed sati-s-faction with his handicap.
