Disappointment has been caused by the withdrawal of Advance from; the Doncaster Handicap and Sydney Cup. As, however, the instructions received authorised his nominations for all the weight-for-age races at the autumn meeting, sportsmen will probably have the chance of seeing him racing at Randwick later. CAULFIELD RACES.
