K. ings’ Mort and F. B. Stutz’ Avenger, will be run off to- night at the Key West Ken- nel Club. Avenger, who holds the track mark over the 5/16 mile distance at an even 31 Seconds, appears to be the favorite although what. will Hutch-} happen when he runs head-! on into Mort, who has cap- tured eight firsts in 16 starts | thus far in the season, is any- ‘one’s guess. In addition, the field will in- clude Reckoning, owned by Mrs. H. E. Russell who has shown well jin his last two starts with im- {pressive wins. A top crowd of racing fans is expected to flock to the plush Stock Island oval for tonight’s classic. The two featured dogs are cur- rently the hottest pair at the track but they will have further competition from Pagoda, Honest Buddy, Bar K, Tammie and Last Summer. Post time tonight is 8:15 p. m. | In last night's action, Foot Hill, ‘owned by Cliff Waller used his {late speed to come in a winner ia the feature. Starting from the number seven spot, the winner loafed until the halfvay mark and then with a furious burst of power, outdistanced the field to pay 12.40, 4.00 and 4.20. Bridle Comer and Whispering Charlie finished second and third yin that order. Bridle Comer re- jturned 3.20 and 2.80 while Whis- pering paid 4.20 The Daily Double last night, Shinning Sue and Blue Sails brought back 82.60 and the eighth race Quiniela paid an even 154,00 FATHER AND SON HORSES HALLANDALE, Fla. @—A fath- er-son horse combination was Shown to Gulfstream Park patrons recently.
