nj Although lacking a horse
v of the caliber OF the
mighty Twenty Grand,
Mrs. Payne Whitney, mistress OF
the Greentree Stable. has in Spy
Hill and Black Buddy a pair OF
colts that rate strong considera-
tiOn in ranking the 3.year'0ldS
for the Kentucky Derby and the
PreaknesS.
Spy Hill, a strapping son of the
English sire, Spion Kop, is a 4O-to-1
shot in the Derby future books, while
Black Buddy, sired by Bud Lerner,
is held at so to |.
OF the pair, Spy Hill is considered
the most likely to start. The colt is
bred to stay any distance and that is
what is needed in the Kentucky classic.
His sire won the 1920 English Derby,
while his dam, Marvella II, is by
Gainsborough, also an English Derby
winner.
From the Greentree Farm at Red
Bank, N. j., comes word that Spy Hill
winrered we'll.
He is in grand shape" said Trainer
Bill Brennan, "and will be pointed
for the Derby and Preakness."

a strong delegation in training for
the Derby. He names Roustabout,
Fogbound, Collateral and Jabot. Odds
on the quartet, which wintered in
Kentucky. vary from 80 to on Roust-
about to so to against Jabot.
Jabot turned in the most impress
sive two-year -old record, with six VIC
