GLENTRUIN'S ENGAGEMENTS. (Received 12 noon.) SYDNEY, this day. Mr. Price states that in all probability Glentruin will not start in the Camellia Stakes at Rosehill, for which she is allotted the top weight of 10.5, but will be given a chance against Gloaming, The Hawk and other fu-Bt-elass performers in tbe Hill Stakes. Should she give a satisfactory dsJilny she will remain in Sydney and fulfil the Kandwick engagements, including the ■ Epsom Handicap. Shouid she fail to act j up to expectations she will be sent home. The owner of Ballymena has not yet I decided whether the horse will start in the ' Rosehill meeting. He regards the allotment lof 9.10 in the cup a full share of weight, aud If the gelding does start in the meeting, it will probably be iv the Hill Stakes, with i BJI. Arrangements are made for Ballymena, Currency and Murlhaupo to leave for I home on September 26. Space Is also re--1 served for Glentruin in the same boat,, should it be decided to send the mare back. While exercising on Saturday Glentruin i struck her off foreleg, which filled slightly, i but serious consequences are not anticiJ pated.—(A. and N.Z. Cable.) GLOAMING'S NEXT RACE.

The Cypher is" back on the tracks, but is being restricted to trotting. His forelegs nre bandaged and thero are no signs of . lameness. The bandsmen at Randwick on Saturday welcomed Gloaming's appearance on the track by playing "In the Gloaming." This hit the fancy of tbe crowd, so many of whom had made the journey out to see the old favourite in action again. They vented their feelings in long continued cheering.— (A. and N.Z. Cable.)
