Cup fun ends in hospital
PA Wanganui Victory celebrations came to an abrupt halt early yesterday for the son of the owners of the Melbourne Cup sensation, Kiwi. Warwick Lupton, the son of Snow and Anne Lupton, the Waverley owners of Kiwi, is in Wanganui Base Hospital nursing a broken leg., He tripped and fell, about 4 a.m., at the rear of the Clarendon Hotel in Waverley, where a good proportion of the small town’s population had gathered to celebrate the Melbourne Cup success. Mr Lupton's fiancee, Miss Lee Mackay, said last evening, “He is fine — it was just a small break.” “We did not take him to hospital until later this morning because at first we did not realise it was broken.”
