Taurean Sky shows her preferences
By
STEVE WILSON
Taurean Sky showed that she has a liking for easy tracks, with an all the way win at the ■ Christchurch Greyhound Racing Club’s sweepstake meeting at Queen Elizabeth II Park yesterday. Victory was never in doubt as she kept up a length advantage all the way over her rivals, headed by What A Cracker and Retactri. The well performed Havocs Planet was slow away and met trouble during the running to finish last.
Godaiming Glory, a littermate of Taurean Sky, made it two wins for the day for the Old Glory Boy — Taurean Hs'.voc breed when tak-
ing out his maiden heat earlier.
Although almost in the “veteran", class now, the Graham Barron trained Equador Lad continues to impress over the sprint journeys with another good win over 330 m in 19.935. He is in rare form at the moment and looks like measuring up for a long while yet. Other winners were: Don’t Surrender (CO; 560 m, 35.105), Swannee Hobbs (Cl, 560 m, 35.135), Dancer Dan (C2, 560 m, 35.055), Mikarla Khan (C2, 560 m, 35.565), Bouncy Boy (C 3 and C 4, 560 m, 34.655), On the Nose (Cl, 330 m, 20.315), Cranog Jet (C2, 330 m, 19.795), Wadderin Maid (C 4 330 m, 19.795).
