SYDNEY CUP.

ROOTLLA’S PEEFOEMANCE. PRESS COMMENTS. (Received 10 a.m.) SYDNEY, This Day. The “Sydney Morning Herald, s commenting on the Sydney Cup, says: “Ifogilla won by means of an amazing fast long run. His speed carried him from a rear position at the mile post to the load at the half-mile, and his stamina enabled him to continue his run for the last half mile and beat off a strong challenge by two lightly-weighted runners.’ ’ The “Telegraph” says: “Eogilla’s burst of speed was breathtaking, and amazed thousands who saw the race. Eogilla’s rider can hardly be complimooted for the manner wherein he rode the chestnut, and in winning under such circumstances Eogilla proved himself a first-class horse. Pretzel and Lough Neagh both got bumped: during the race.”
