SEATTLE, Wash. July 22.-Ths ex-
pectation that the Renton handicap. in
which four derby candidates competed
today would furnish a good line on
the probable outcome of the derby it
self Saturday was not realized. First
Peep won tOday's handicap in track
record time, with BOggs and Stanley
Fay. two of the derby candidates, Sec
Ond and third, and GlOriO and Early
/ Tide, two other derby aspirants. un-
placed.
The contest. however, failed to fur
nish a reliable index of the relative
merits of the derby material There
was a great deal OF crOwding and jam
ming throughout the race with GloriO.
Stanley Fay and BOggs the principal
sufferers. Early Tide had no excuses.
and on the outcome of the race looks
to have little chance in Saturdays
classic.
Boggs encountered interference at
the first turn, but was able to over
come it, and make a respectable show
ing. Fay was repeatedly knocked back
in the middle half, and seemed to lack
his usual snap when clear sailing pre-
sented itself in the stretch. GloriO was
set back to last position on the back
stretch, and was herded until there
was no chance Of finishing in the
money. He closed gamely and made
up several lengths in the final furlOng.
The result of the race leaves the derby
situation in a condition that will en-
courage the starting of a larger field
than was Expected.
Anna May was the only favorite to
win today. Four second choices and a
third choice accounted for the rest of
the card.
As an outcome Of the Improbable
business that the layers have been
transacting, three books dropped out
at tOday's cutin-Edwin T. Fryer. John
Humbrecht and Ed Hutchinson. Fryer
is reported to be about S1O.O 900 loser on
the season. Summary:
