LOUISVILLE. KY. May 5. up
His first mount was a scraggly
Shetland pony, and he threw a
chubby leg over it 10 years ago in
Hoskins. Nebraska.
On Saturday. with $4,000 persons
screaming at him, he'll come out
on the track at Churchill downs
in the Kentucky Derby parade, and
his mount will be Bull Lea, the dark
bay son of Bulldog and the most
feared horse in the field.
Sitting in his silks in the jockeys
room at Churchill Downs, Irving
Anderson, 81, now, and top rank
ing contract rider, told me how he
felt about the Derby, and what he
thought would happen out on the
loam of the racing strip.
Wen take it all" Irving said,
screwing his little walnut of a face
into a smile. Every bit of it. I've
seen most of the horses we've got
to lick, and ridden one or TWO of
them. and az the finish thnyll ha
getting out of our way to keep from
being run over. That Bull can run. "
But how far?' I asked, remem-
bering that Bull Lea'S sire was
Bull Dog, a fellow who never liked
to go much farther than mile.
Some of the experts say your
horse will need an ambulance after
a mile and a sixteenth 80
Did any OF those experts ever
ride Bull Lea?" Irving asked. I
have, and I know. When he set a
track record for a mile and an
eighth at Keeneland a couple of
weeks ago he had plenty, plenty
left They won't have to come out
and pick us up
Irving also took a crack at the
horsemen who have said that Bull
Lea's lack of early speed would
be a big handicap to him.
We've got plenty of early foot
In that Keeneland race we stayed
right with Menow all the way.
From the break until we caught
him at the sixteenth pole ne never
was more than a length ahead and
you know what that means Hes
the fastest thing out of a gate you
ever saw. So we can't be so slow. 8"
Irving doesn't fear any OF the
eight Derby horses who raced in
the Derby trials Tuesday. ana that
field included the famed Stage
hand, The Chief, LaWrin. Elooto,
and Co-Sport
What about Stagehand?" I ask
