Litter sisters favoured

By 808 SCHUMACHER Two up and. coming sisters, Roaming Kilty and Katherine Moran, are expected to form the winning quinella in the Cardigan Moss Cup at the Christchurch Greyhound Racing Club’s meeting at Queen Elizabeth IX Park this evening. The Ballykilty-Roaming Rosita bitches both won by impressive margins at the last meeting and they were the first two home in the fastest of the two heats on Monday evening. On that occasion, Roaming Kilty was triumphant, and from box No. 2, he looks the logical winner. Katherine Moran has an abundance of speed and she should fee too swift for tire others in the :599m classic race. Rosie Knows, la decisive winner of the other heat — although the Chief Zero bitch was more than half a second slower than Roaming Kilty — is still at the improving stage and she should claim a placing. There will be considerable interest in the Estrallta open race over 590 m where Miss Valley Inn, .just back from a successful racing campaign in Sydney, meets the brilliant Smokev Hobbs, winner of eight of Ids last nine starts. Smokey Hobbs has the advantage of the inside draw-, but even | from box No. 5, Miss Valley Inn | has the acceleration to reach the I lead before tile first bend. The two dogs should prove a class above the remainder, which might be headed by Anna’s Retreat. an open-class winner, and the consistent Swift Princess. In the Royal Shot limit stakes over the 330 m sprint, Marty’s Terror, a finalist in the Harding 'Cup sprint, makes most appeal. He shared the fastest winning ■ time in the heats with Mica i Moss. Mica Moss and Leica Tiger I should be prominent, but one which might* beat them all is the speedy Satin Miss. She has drawn box No. 1. : Fields:— AMIGO STAKES, novice. 590 m !
