N.Z. HORSES IN SYDNEY
F ountainhead And Kingdom (H.Z.P.A.-Reuter—Copyright) SYDNEY. March 21. The New Zealand racehorses, Kingdom and Fountainhead, reached Sydney in the Wanganella today. They were in a batch of 39 thoroughbreds which made the Tasman crossing. They will contest important Sydney races in the next few weeks. Kingdom is entered for the Invitation Stakes and the Sydney Cup at Randwick. Fountainhead is in the Doncaster Handicap. Kingdom’s owner, Mr J. Watt, was very pleased with the four-year-old’s condition. “He is a very good traveller and looks in great shape,” Mr Watt said. "He will have a run at Randwick tomorrow.” The horse’s trainer, Eric Ropiha, flew to Sydney yesterday. Fountainhead also looked in good condition.
