Kentucky Derby List Is Cut to 16, With Three of These Doubitful Starters BALLANT FOX STILL CHOIGE IN CLASSIC Some Fast Work by Others, Though, Makes Big Race Wide-Open Affair. By the Associated Press. OUISVILLE, Ky., May 15—The probable Kentucky Derby field narrowed down to 16 thorough- breds today, with three listed as | doubtful starters, as owners and train- ers definitely withdraw their eligibles, for varlous reasons, from Saturday's| feature race at Churchill Downs. Gallant Fox still ruled the favorite today to capture the $50,000 added stake, despite a poor work-out yester- day in which he showed a dislike for the mud, because of his victory in the Preakness at Pimlico last week. Faster works by other eligibles, however, nar- rowed the odds and left the Derby still a wide open race. Gallant Fox, owned by Willlam Wood- ward of Chicago, sulked during his work-out yesterday and failed to re- spond to urging by Earl Sande, premier jockey, who rode him to victory in the Preakness and hopes to repeat Satur- day. Notable speedy moves were made by Nash and Partidge's High Foot, E R, Bradley's Buckeye Poet, William Zeigler, jr.'s, Gone Away, and Johnson N. Camden’s Sydney. Others listed in the forefront of the | contenders are Bradley's Breezing Thru, Who has one of the best derby works to his credit, a mile and & quarter in 2°114%, and Uncle Luther, Stiver's fast colt, which is the only probable derby starter to win a race since the Churchiil Downs meeting opened. Killkerry, W. T. Waggonner's eligible, | which pulled a tendon in & recent work- out, is being carefully handled by his trainers in hopes he will be in condi- tion to enter the big race Saturday, but he was still listed among the doubtful starters. Longus, last of the derby ar- Tivals, was galloped 2 miles yesterday with no attempt at speed. Jockeys have been engaged for all| thoroughbreds listed as certain starters, but two of the doubtful starters are yet riderless. The derby field as compiled today, two days before the race, in- cluded no fillies. | The starting colts will carry the derby | weight of 126 pounds.

What a courage- ous little fellow he is, and how often has he returned to the top after meeting with disaster, distavor and disappointment. An Idaho farm boy, he became America’s premier jockey, and Wwas chosen to ride the American repre- sentative, Zev, to victory over the English, Papyrus, in the mud of Bel- mont Park in the Fall of 1923. He was sitting on the top of the world then, but in August of the following year headlines screamed the fact to the world that his riding days were ended by a fall at Saratoga, and, what was worse, that he had suffered injuries which would cripple him for life. Then came his biggest comeback, after months in the hospital, long tortured months with pulleys and weights to aid his broken bones to knit correctly. The next Summer the tow-headed, freckled-faced kid was riding again, and riding as of old, too. On April 21, 1925, at Havre de Grace, he rode Sarazen to victory in the Newark Handicap and 15,000 race enthusiasts cheered the plucky jockey for more than five minutes, Then came another setback. On November 4, 1927, the whole racing world was shocked to learn that the Maryland racing officials had re- voked Sande’s license, set him down for an alleged break of racetrack rules. But Earl, discouraged and heartbroken over this and the death of his wife, came back once more. Reinstated, Sande became an owner and trainer. He hung up his boots and other jockeys rode his own saddle. 1930. He won the for the Kentucl od WINNERS.
