THE CUP RACE

SYDNEY

April 22

The “Herald” commenting on the Sydney Cup says- “Gwilliam G. in leading throughout to win in record time emulated Piastoon and Murray King. She set a fast pace from the outset and won running away from the two Queensland representatives. While Gwilliam G. was first to break the line, Star God soon tailed off and maintained a last position until live furlongs from home, when lie moved up rapidly. The New Zealander, however, had been badly cut during a collision with Sir Kibble and was a beaten horse when the straight was reached. Royal Smile who had been with the leaders all the way endeavoured to overtake Gwilliam G. but without result.
