SUPERWAY MAY WIN
Meeting At Greymouth Superway, runner-up to Alight in the New Zealand Trotting Stake* at Addington recently, should gain her first win in the Rima Handicap at the Greymouth Trotting Club's autumn meeting at Victoria Park today. Most opposition to her in this race, and in the Otira Handicap later in the day, can be expected from Coming Down, a member of A. M. Purdon s team. The double will be run on the Eclipse Handicap and the Westland Handicap. The weather cleared last yesterday in Greymouth and if there is no further break, the track should be good. Selections: —
