Our Flight entered for Japan Cup
PA Wellington The rising four-year-old, Our Flight, has been nominated for the 1983 Japan Cup by her owner-breeder, Mr Jim Rusher, of Palmerston North. She is the first valid New Zealand entry for the race, to be run in late November, after the earlier withdrawal of Fountaincourt, Mr Steve Brem, the New Zealand representative of the Londonbased international Racing
Bureau, said yesterday. The Auckland Cup winner, Fountaincourt, is from a non-Stud Book family and was ineligible under Japanese rules. In the season now ending, Our Flight raced 12 times in New Zealand for eight wins, two seconds and one third and stakes of $205,175. Her biggest win was the New Zealand Derby. The closing date for preliminary nominations A for the cup is September 1
