Stamina The Thing Por the wartime ban on rating to a large degree has prevented them from getting an accurate line on the horses which will run for flic roses on Saturday They are hoping their horses tan go the Derby distance of a mile and a quarter but for the most part they tion t know whether their horses have tlie staying power needed. The 17 or less which will lace the hairier in the 71st annual renewal of the nation's racing classic have hem brought along on a stepped up training program which has not been long enough for any conclusive tests. The previews were staged on a hurry-ubasis after the ban on racing was lifted so whether the accelerated training program will see the horses fit is a matter of debate. Most of the tiaincis feel Unit their chaiges need mure conditioning The uncertainty of the horses' condition bore out the predictions of most turf men that this tlurri street-ca- r Derby would be a wide open affair with some of the outsiders being accorded as good a chance as those which have been established as the chief contenders Two horses each from the east and west were winning most of the support. The easterners, Hoop Jr. and Jeep, which won the two sections of the Wood Memorial at Jamaica last week, were gaining supporters on the basis of performances thus far. The westerners-P- ot o'Luck and Burning Dream-w- on their way into the circle of favorites for the most part on sentiment. Two Veterans Jeep and Hoop Jr. have been tested more than most of the other probable starters and the 1:51 one and an eighth mile workout which the latter turned in yesterday dropped his odds from 10 to six to one. Eddie Arcaro, who rode Hoop Jr., to victory in the second section of the Wood, was scheduled to arrive late today and probably will put the Derby hopeful of Fred W. Hooper. Florida contractor, through a light prep trial tomorrow. From now on in, none of the probable starters will be asked to do anything more than gallop to get the feel of the track. Jeep arirved last night and was scheduled for some early morning exercise today. Jeep and Pot o'Luck rated as co favorites on the latest line at four to one with Hoop Jr. and Burning Dream the next choices at six to one. The regard with which most horsemen hold Calumet Farm and Trainer Ben Jones began to drive down the odds on Pot o'Luck. Jones still feels that Pot o'Luck has as good a chance as any horse in the race, although his race showing in the Blue Grass stakes last Saturday was not too promising. The same sentiment which rides with Calumet and Jones also was reflected in the odds on Burning Dream. His record is mediocre. But Kentuckians have a warm place in their heart for Burning Dream's owner, Col. E. R. Bradley, and they are hoping he comes through with his fifth Derby triumph. Of the 17 regarded as likely starters only two were in the Kenilworth Lad doubtful class and Fair Jester. The latter will not owngo if the track is muddy. The ers have until 7 a. m. CWT Friday to deride whether to enter their horses. Tho DDY T J ( K -- II THE JADE MASK" Selected Short Subjects PLAY BINGO TOMORROW NIGHT. $22.50 Cash Awards f u iT 4 Yl 1! : - r tM |
