Wright-Brevity Is Feared Derby Duo Tow-Headed Idaho Jockey Con- fident Widener’s 3-Year- Old Will Win 1 | Louisville, Ky., April 20—@—A {tow-headed boy, neatly dressed in a riding habit, lolled outside one of Churchill Downs’ green-painted barns. Occasionally his eyes wandered over to a nearby paddock where another boy was cooling off a horse. The boy was Wayne Wright; the horse, J. E, Widener’s Brevity. To- gether they form the feared combin- ation for the 62nd running of the | Kentucky Derby Saturday. Brevity is feared because of his great speed; Wright because he not only ranks among the leading riders, but he’s on a winning streak, Al- ready the 21-year-old Rexberg, Idaho, blond veteran has won three stakes and more than 150,000 this year. He took the Santa Anita handicap with Top Row, the Santa Anita Derby with Mrs. Silas B. Mason’s He Did, and the Florida Derby with Brevity. “Why shouldn’t I feel confident?” asked Wright. “He's beaten every- thing that's opposed him this year and in a manner that left little to be desired.” That just about tells the belief of horsemen and laymen alike, as they thronged into the city Wednesday. The complexion of the race was changed some, as the result of Tues- day’s developments, but Brevity was not affected. Mrs. Silas B. Mason’s He Did step- ped into the picture more seriously by whipping Mrs. F. C. Mars’ Sangreal and Grand Slam from the Bomar stable in the final Derby trial of one mile. W. 8S. Kilmer’s Ned Reigh was jlsted as a doubtful starter as the result of a high fever following his trip from New York. A more definite line was ‘expected Wednesday on the highly-regarded trio trained by James Fitzsimmons when the veteran trainer's assistant, George Tappan, sends the Wheatley stable's Teufel, and William Wood- ward's Granville and Merry out for a serious workout.
