Sporting writers declare that Windbird was unlucky to be beaten in the Villiers Stakes at Randwick yesterday. He twice had to be checked in running, although Golden Chance finished with great dash and won convincingly. Sporting Blood and Gay Blonde, who were prominent early, looked dangerous for a time, as did Limyris. Cherry King did not run up to expectations, MOONEE VALLEY RACES. NEW ZEALANDERS SUCCEED.
