WINGATUI TRACK WORK
Although a heavy drizzling rain was falling in town early yesterday morning, no rain had fallen at Wingatui. The course proper was open for fast work, with the trestles well in, enabling the horses to gallop down the middle of the track. The going was quite firm, Silver Mask and Tizzy led Paladeo at the end of six furlongs in lmin 22sec. Paladeo was easing up at the finish. Green Boa, Cerne Minster, and the Palantua filly took lmin 24sec to cover six furlongs. Silver Lily broke lmin 22sec, and so did Compeer when galloped over the same ground. Night Lancer sprinted over half a mile on the inside grass. Others who were worked included Astros, Latest Song, Moneybird, and Monetary.
