TROTTING Brosnan has strong trio in 2nd leg

Richard Brosnan, the young Kerry - town trainer, will parade a fine trio in Kara Kara. Costa Light, and Cherristock in the Southshore Handicap, second leg of the double at Addington Raceway this evening. Costa Light finished tenth in the sprint at Rangiora won in runaway style by the highly-promising Kara Kara, but his performance was by no means as bad as his placing might suggest.

Stakes, a race which; ‘could provide a guide to! (prospects in the $lO,OOO New Zealand Oaks on Anzacl I Dav.
