OF Course.

LEXINGTON, KY, May s-Moving past
a spent and Keeling field with an ease
which his clumsy, numbering stride did
not indicate Pink Star, the longest priced
horse in the race. today won the Kentucky
derby by two lengths from zal, with Owe
lando in third place, a length and a half
away The race was run over a track al
most fetlock deep in mud and the time
was the siowest IN the history Of the race.
The thirty-third running Of the Kentucky
derby furnished an unusually open betting
proposition due largely to the heavy track
which caused the withdrawal shortly be-
fore the race of Arctic. a colt which had
been an overwhelming favorite in the fu-
ture books. Boxara and Hold Fast were
also scratched, leaving a field Of six, with
Red Gauntlet installed as favorite at 3
to 2 with heavy play on Ovelando and
Wool Sandals each held at 3 TO l. Seal,
at to /. had some support. but OTland-
wick at 10 to 1. and Pink Star, at Is to /,
were virtually overlooked. In some books
as good as 20 to / was laid against the
winner who closed at u TO 1 on the
strength Of a little play by sharp shooters.
The field was sent away TO a good start.
Wool Sandals jumped into the lead, but
relinquished the honor to Zal. Boland on
Zal, with Wool Sandals and Ovelando al
ternating in second place, set a stiff pace
for the first six furlongs considering the
condition Of the track. Red Gauntlet and
Orlandwick seesawed along behind and
trailing six lengths in the rear, ran Pink
Star. BY the time the mile was reached
Zal had all except left Pink Star, who
had moved up TO fourth place In distress.
~
they turned into the stretch, not seeing
Jockey Minder uncouple Pink Star. The
big bay colt speedily closed up the fpur
lengths between him and Zal, successfully
moving down Wool Sandals and Ovelando
with the greatest Of ease. Half way down
the stretch Pink Stars pink muzzle showed
in front and the race was won. From
there on to the wire Pink Star held the
race safe. The favorite, Red Gauntlet, re-
malned in sixth place almost the entire
race and when called upon in the stretch
the best he could do was to move into
fourth place ahead OF the wobbly Wool
Sandals and the very tired Orlandwick.
The winner is bay colt by Pink Coat,
dam Mary Malloy, and owned by J. H.
Woodford. Results:
