HORSE RACING

Racing under lights for the first time this season at Moonee Valley, this Friday night.

Main drawcard is the Stutt Stakes @ 9pm EST.

This is payday for us all folks.

A near enough certainty in the race is the highly promising Churchill Downs. He has the race at his mercy.

Currently quoted at about $3.20. A gift.

As for the placings, I would have said daylight, however it is a night meeting. As for the rest of the program, I like a mare who is progressing well, Pavlova.

Those of you who have been following this column, know how I feel about her. Her main problem would be getting a run in the race, as she is an emergency.

I will go through my selections and tips bith for Moonee Valley and Randwick Saturday.
