KISTA WINS
IN.Z. Press Association! BRISBANE. Kista gave her former New Zealand trainer. S. A. Brown, a rare moment of joy on his Bris* bane campaign when she turned lin a solid Doomben Ten Thousand i trial with victory in the $6OOO I Boorolong Handicap at Doombeu lon Saturday. I The Queensland winter trip has not been a happy one for Brown and reached its darkest moment on Saturday morning when Brown announced that his ! star performer, Triton, would not race again I Browm said Triton had developed swelling in the sesamoid area of the near front joint and after consulting the entire’s I Palmerston North owners, Mt and Mrs J. Cameron, it had been decided to retire the horse immediately. Triton, which won seven successive races in New Zealand before coming to Australia, has won Australia's top mile events the A.J.C. Epsom and last year’s Stradbroke. as well as a string of other important races. He retires with his stake money only a few: dollars short of $lOO,OOO. The connections of the horse have wisely decided to take nc risks with him, for he will be a valuable stud proposition, particularly with the death lasi year of his sire. Pakistan 11.
