LOUISVILLE, May 10. - The great
Louisville Derby will be run off to-
morrow, and. in all probability, on a
heavy track 1t will be measure of
Disappointment to the lovers of large
fields of starters that but four nays will
face the flag Tor this leading event.
The first declarations left but twenty
seven horses, and of these but four will
start. The last withdrawal was Bash
ford, but as Wadsworth, Semper Rex
and Faraday had already been drawn,
this cut but little figure. The starters
will be the COrrigan pair, Phil Dryer
and Huron, and ARA and Irish Chief.
ARA, who will be backed by Clayton,
is generally picked as the good thing,
but his form is all unknown quantity
The scratching of his stable mate, Bash
ford. makes it appear that ARA is out
for the money, though many knowing
ones say the cOnqueror of st.
Florian and Dagonet is not
is plainly abybody's. Its uncertainty is
complicated by COrrigan'S reported
determination to send Huron TO the
post. 1t is well known that Corrigan
looks on Huron as the best colt in his
stable, and for this reason it was be-
lieved that he would save him for the
richer stakes at Chicago.
Irish Chief has attracted the attention
OF every one by his fine work in Lex
ington. He was only second-class
colt last year, but at the Lexington
meeting left some of the best OF the
older horses behind him.
The Jockey board in the Derby is pref
ty apt to be as follows: Overton will
ride Phil DWyer and De Long VIII
mount Huron. Clayton will have the
pick of the Bashford Manor pair. 1t
was thought that Isaac Murphy would
ride Faraday, but now that that animal
has been withdrawn, the king of jockeys
is hard to place. 1t is reported here
that Ii. Anderson will ride Irish Chief.
Some surprise was occaSIoned by TINS
announcement, although the boy mas
done some notably good work.
The Derby will be worth 81. $50 to the
winner this year.
The Cakes will be valuable race, as
thirtv-four entries are left in, and, if
eight go to the post, the winner will get
the neat prize of $500. The 1892 dec
larations are: Annie Irwin, Aindoogam
