Pacers’ N.Z. trip off
(N.Z. Press Assn—Copyright) SYDNEY. The Sydney pacer. Mitchell Victory, will miss the InterDominion Pacing series which begins at Alexandra Park, AuckI land, on February 1. The chestnut’s trainer-driver, Kevin Newman said that both (Mitchell Victory and Al’s Holiday ’would stay in Sydney “Even though Mitchell Victory is racing well, I feel he could be going better,” Newman said last night. On Friday night Mitchell Victory won his heat of the Australian Day Cup. “He won’t be going to Auckland because I feel a hard campaign would flatten him,” Newman said. Al’s Holiday is only a four-year-old, and Newman has wisely decided to by-pass Auckland and keep him for the 1976 series at Globe Derby Park in South Australia.
He finished second to Adios Victor in a heat of the Australia Day Cup on Friday night, after a long campaign.
