Short Bid, A 22 To 1 Shot, Captures Key West Kennel Club Feature Race Range Twilight Starts Tonight In Feature Race Short Bid, a 22 to 1 shot two year old owned by Sam Baxendale, came in a winner last night in the feature race at the Key West Kennel Club. A heavy underdog in the wagering. Short Bid gained the lead at the three- quarter pole and never lost it, finishing two lengths a- head of the favored Miss Nocturne. Short Bid, comes by her winning ways naturally — she sired by the all-time champion, Beach Comber, who won just about every important race extant. The winner paid a whop- ping 45.60 to win, 11.00 to place and 4.00 to show. Miss| Nocturne, a heavy favorite with the wagers to win re- turned 4.60 and 3.40 while Irene Hill, the third place dog returned 3.20 to show. The Quiniela on the feature race paid a hefty 76.70, In other action, Miss Anne Mur- phy and Mill Gale came in win- ners in the fifth race to produce a Quiniela of 151.00. The Daily Double last night, paid 30.80 when Allstyle and Fair Monarch scored in the first and second races. Tonight’s feature race will show three Grade One pups who are seeking their second Wins of the abreviated meeting. Gf They will be led by Range Twilight, Claude Betterson’s ju- venile speedster, who captured an impressive win in the Key West inaugural. This dog won going away over some top-flight competition, x He'll be cyposed by Fleet Wing Kennel’s Timber Range and Man- ue.
