On Better Terms When Damaris met and defeated Great Charter and In the Shade by heads in the Wanganui Guineas last week she was meeting them on even terms. In the Avondale Guineas, to come up for decision on Monday w*eek, she comes in on five pounds better terms, for under the conditions fillies are allowed that margin over colts and geldings. In Good Form Town Bird showed such good form when he won the open sprint at Wanganui last Saturday that it is surprising to find him among those that failed to pay up for the opening day of the Avondale meeting. At Wanganui Town Bird was up against some fair sprinters, but he showed them a clean pair of heels, having as much as a six lengths lead, and causing the field to string out before they had gone a couple of furlongs.
