GOTHAM ON EDGE FOR BIG HORSE. | THURSDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1923 World Results By Leased Wire fhe Caspet Daily Cribune *| THE TRIBUNE’S PAGE OF SPORTING NEWS |* RAGE SATURDAY; ZEV TAKES REST Odds Reduced as Unfavorable Reports on U. S. Contender Are Spread; Measurements of Two Horses Are Given. NEW YORK, Oct. 18.—(By The Associated Press) .— On the surface as much excited as before the Dempsey- Firpo bout or the last game of the recent world series, New Yorkers today were holding their sporting breath until the barrier springs two days hence at Belmont Park, when Zev, the American horse, and Papyrus, the English derby PAPYRUS 0. K. OAV TRAINER Good Horse Can Race On Any Track, He Declares. NEW YORK, Oct. 18.—{United Press.)\—"Good horses can run well any place, any time, on a dirt track er on the turf. Papyrus is a good horse. He isn’t an Ormonde or a St. Simon. He fs just a good colt. He shipped well from England and he trained fine here, and I expect him to be in top form for the big rece.” With this general comment, Basil Jarvis, the young trainer of the English derby winner, disposed of the siories that he feared his charge ‘would be too hopelessly handicapped by strange conditions in the United States to do his best. Difference in weather conditions and the change from the soft foot- ing of the turf course upon which he ran in England to the sun-baked hard clay of the Belmont track had been pointed out as handicaps which could not help but reduce the speed and endurance of the British thor: oughbred. Liked Cooler Weather. “As far as weather has been con- cerned, we have not noticed that it affected Papyrus in the slightest. It was so hot when we first arrived that {t was unpleasant for all of us, but when cooler weather came we found that we did not notice any great difference between conditions here and in England,” Jarvis said. “We do not believe that the dirt track will throw Papyrus off form. The track was very hard when wo first started to work him, but he took to it Iike {tt was perfectly natural, and I believe he will run the same way. The only doubts we have had was about the effect that new shoes would have on him, as ‘we can't use the same kind of shoes that he wears on turf courses.” It has been observed in Papyrus that he adjusts himself very quickly to strange surroundings and he |s wo even tempered that he {s not upset by many thin, that bother high-strung animals. In the United States the practice prevails of running all races with the inner rail on the near side of the horse, that is, with the turns all being made to the left. In England most of the classics are run the other way, with the inner rail on the right side of the horse. It was suggested that this difference would also throw Papyrus off. “Tt is true that most of the races fm England have the turns to the right, but not all of them. Some courses have left turns and others right turns, and Papyrus has done his running both ways,” Jarvis sald.

His last workout over yesterday, Zev was simply to be kept in the top form that Sam Hildreth, trainer for Harry F. Sinclair believes the American thoroughbred to be enjoy- ing, but Papyrus was to take a time trial today with Steve Donoghue, the Eng'ish jockey who piloted him in the derby, and who came especially to ride him. There was no certain- ty about Papyrus’ program, as Basi! Jarvis, his trainer, has changed his plan so often that the experts do not pretend to anticipate him. Hildreth was much annoyed by divergent reports about Zev's work- out yesterday when the horse was “clocked” a mile and half in 2.30 2-5, admittedly s'ow time for his rating. The trainer said the horse was work- ed at a mile, that L. Fator, who had the mount, carried out his instruc- tions to pull him up at the mile and that the next two quarters were re- quired to get him in. Zev made the mile and a quarter in 2:09 fiat an dthe mile in 1.39 3-5 good time, fought for his head all day and was breathing eas!'y when pulled up. Despite this, the odds shortened, some wagers being laid against him and others at reduced odds. So far as physicel measurements go, Zev and Papyrus are event! con- structed. It is probable that Zev ts some- what lighter than last August, the latest figure ava'lable, when be weighed 1,070 pounds, 80 pounds Ughter than Papyrus and generally heavier than three year olds in train- ing. Through the heart Papyrus is stouter. Their respective measurements are: Height: Papyrus 15 hands 3 inches. Zev, 15 hands 3 inches, Girth, Papyrus 78 inches; Zev 70 inches.

Many turfmen thought that My Own was the best three-year-old in | the United States and should have been picked Instead of Zev. + Many still think so, and {ff the British horse should win, they will always maintain that Papyrus did not beat the best American horse. There were no doubts, however, as to the jockey who should have the mount on the American color-bearer. ‘When the race was first consld- ered, the name of Barle Sande sug- gested Itself immediately as the only rider in the country who could com. plete the combination of the best jockey and the best horse against the foreign invade!

The English colt with Donoghue up went a mile In 1:38 3-5 and gal. loped the mile and a furlong at 1:51 25. He was never fully ex tended. Critical observers along the track were unanimous in declaring that it was by far the most impres: sive trial shown by either of the candidates so far. The fractional times were: 24 8-8; 87 4-5; 1:00; 1:12 1-5; 1:88 8-5; 1:51 2-5. Conditions were fdeal. No dew had fallen during the night and the track was dry and exceptionally fast. A strong back wind made the going somewhat easier for the last five furlongs. Papyrus’ time for the mile, 1:38 8-5, was a full second under the mark mado yester by Zev, In | the latter’s last big workout before the race, Zev was not on the track this morning and it was expected he would engage only in Ught exercise today. —-—_— 2i0-MILE MOTOR RAGE INK.
