Aust., N.Z. pacers vie
NZPA Sydney The New Zealand pacing trio of Luxury Liner, Tax Credit and Kylie’s Hero, clash with Australia’s new harness racing star, Sinbad Bay, in the sAust2so,ooo Winfield Gold Cup (2380 m at Moonee Valley this evening. Sinbad Bay, a lightly raced four-year-old which has bolted from relative obscurity to prominence since Christmas, has been installed as 5-4 favourite for the rich Melbourne race and a win would see his odds narrow as favourite for next month’s Inter-Dominion Championship in Perth. Luxury Liner, which ran a fast-finish-ing second to Bag Limit in last year’s Winfield Gold Cup, is rated by Melbourne bookmakers as second favourite at 2-1 with his stablemate, Tax Credit, at 5-1 and Kylie’s Hero, 7-1.
AU three Kiwis — New Zealand’s 1989 Inter-Dominion representatives — proved their readiness to take on Australia’s best when they raced in the Benson and Hedges Flying Mile at Alexandra Park last Saturday.
