EW YORK, June 15.—With all the best of place high in the handicap division, turned in another notable victory today when he carried the silks of the Kentucky sportsman, C. H. (Pat) Knebelkamp, to the front in the revival | of the $5,000 Carter Handicap at Aqueduct. Made the favorite at even money to | win the purse of $6,850 by the crowd of 18,000, the 4-year-old bay son of | Saxan ran the 7 furlongs in 1:23%, only four-fifths of a second slower than the track record. The victory | was his seventh triumph in eight starts this year and his fourteenth in sixteen trips to the post since the start of his 3-year-old campaign among the platers | in 1934.

The King was permitted to move up to the barrier from behind the stalls, with the result he got away in motion and was lengths in front almost before the others settled into stride. But with Cal Rainey in the saddle, the Knebel- kamp colt raced in a manner that in- dicated he had no need of the ad- vantage of the break. Sergt. Byrne made a mild bid round- ing the bend leading into the stretch, but once the King was straightened out for home, he merely galloped to the finish line under a tight rein.

ETROIT, June 15.—Flashing a great burst of speed at the head of the stretch, Roman Soldier, stout-hearted . black colt from the Sachsenmaier and Reuter Stable beat a crack field of six other 3-year-olds today to capture the second running of the $25,000 added Detroit Derby. Under a brilliant ride by the vet- eran George Woolf, who piloted Azu- car to victory. in the $100,000 Santa Anita Handicap, Roman Soldier stayed in a contending position through the mile and then, in rapid order, smothered Cold Shoulder and 'Sun Portland and won by two jengths. The victory was worth $17,775 to Phil Reuter, the victor's trainer, and Ro- man Soldier's co-owner, Elwood Sach- senmaier. * Second money of $5000 went to Sun Portland, owned by Mrs. Silas B. Mason, and third money of $3,000 to Blackbirder, owned by Mrs. Charles Hainesworth. ‘Woolf timed his bid for victory per- fectly, Polar Flight set the early pace, but as the thoroughbreds hit the mile post the race had narrowed down to Cold Shoulder, owned by Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt; Sunt Port- land, Roman Soldier, and Blackbirder. Going to the outside, Roman Sol- dier swept by Cold Shoulder, caught Sun Portland and then went on to- ward the finish line with enough run left to shake off the couragcous bid by Sun Portland, Blackbirder, away slowly and forced to lose ground while racing forward, closed with a bold rush that beat Cold Shoulder by three-quarters of a length for the show position. Sun Portland’s margin over Blackbirder was a length ana a quarter. Roman Soldier paid $5.60 to win, $2.80 to place, and $2.60 to show. The place price on Sun Portland was $3.00 and show $3.80. Blackbirder paid $5.20 to show. Roman Soldier’s time was 1:58 2-5, only one-fifth of a second slower than the track record set when Cavalcade won the first running of the Derby last year. ¥ A crowd of 20,000 persons saw the race. 4 | Since the Vanderbilt entry finished | first and third, it's backers who picked | it to show received a rare bargain, a | $4.90 return for $2 pari-mutuel tick- ets. - The entry’s win prize was only $4.40, and it paid but 70 cents for place. | While gaining the winner's $7.370 share of the purse, Identify boosted the Vanderbilt earnings at Rocking- ham to the $30,060 mark, and his own total as a 4-year-old to $17,935 for 10 starts.
