FOX And MENOW
IN FAST TRIALS
FOR PREAKNESS
BY PADDOCK

PTMLICO, Md, May 1.-THE
Belair Studs Fighting Fox, disap-
pointing favorite in the Kentucky
Derby, sent his PreaknesS stock
soaring when he turned in swift
mile trial Of 1:40 this morning in
preparation for Saturdays u.s.
900 stake. ...
Trainer Sunny Jim FitZsim-
mons, who came down from New
York to work the 3-year-old bay
son Of Sir Gallahad III and
Marguerite, put blinkers on the
colt. After galloping once around
the oval, Fighting Fox was takec
back to the barn. He was later
brought on the track and taken
into the stall gates located in the
three-quarter mile chute.
When Bill Schamerhorn, one Of
Starter James Millions assistants,
rang the loft bell" Fighting Fox
left the gate in high. He sped
down the back lane and was timed
for the quarter In :23 Is. At the
three-eighths pole the scores Of
checkers had him tabled in "a S-5.
Fighting Fox sped by the hall
in AT and hit the five-eighths
mark in q minute flat. Racing
on to the three-quarterS pole In
1928 and the seven-eighthS In
1925, Fighting Fox continued his
steady pace to the mile. which he
covered in lao.
MENOW WORKS WELL
In the meantime, q stable hand
astride a pony was waiting at the
mile-and-o ne-eighth mark to snatch
him up. AS he hit the mile-and-
one-eighth marx he was timed IN
1858, a mighty clever move. con-
sidering how the colt did 1t.
Earlier in the morning Trainer
Duval Headley sent Hal Price
Headley's Menow on the track for
a mile and one-eighth workout.

Riding to Win

Peters will be in the saddle
on Dauber on Saturday, and the
little chap will be riding to win
as he never rode before. Situa-
tons arise in races, and Peters
acted as he thought best. If ne
had taken back and cut inside
to make his drive, it might have
been different. Maybe it would
not have made much difference
in the end.
Fighting Fox and his stable.
mate, Anaflame, the dainty miss
by Sir MISUNDERSTANDING, will
be coupled in the betting, second
choices, with the probable odds
about 6 to /. Stormscud also
will be coupled with Fighting
Fox. Fighting Fox will wear
blinkerS in the PreaknesS.
Can't Wait, Myron Selznick's
horse which finished third in
the Derby, probably will close at
6 to /, while Menow, Hal Price
Headley's colt which ran fourth
at Churchill Downs on last Sat
urday, is regarded as an 8-to-1
shot.
Sonny Workman, Washing.
tons knight of the pigskin,
will be on board Menow. and
will make no mistake If a
chance to win presents itself.
Hypocrite, winner of the Sur.
vivor Stakes yesterday over Bull
Whip. won a host of friends by
his impressive victory, and Is
regarded as a probable 8-to-1
shot. In the event that Sun
Egret starts, and he certainly
will if the track is heavy, Hypo'
critic will not have the benefit
Of Al Shelhamer's fine riding
Ehelhamer will boot Sun Egret
over the course.
Bull Lea Long Shot
Bull Lea, Warren Wright's
hope in the Derby, should be one
Of the long shots of the race, for
the Bulldog-RoSe Leaves colt
was a bitter disappointment to
his owner and thousands OF
others in the Blue Grass race
Bourbon King, with Earl Steb
bins as his probable rider, Ii
quoted as a 12-to-l shot.
They're still trying to figure
what happened to Fighting Fo1
and Bull Lea in Kentucky
Sunny Jim Fitzsimmons, trainer
of the former, was high on thu
chances of his colt.
1.-THE Fox was all right in tn
early runnin'." one Of the horse
men said yesterday. "Jimm!
Stout had him right in his lal
the first time past the stands
But he just didn't have nothin
left. Mebbe it will be differen
on Saturday"
In some Of its aspects, tn
Preakness will be a redemption
stakes, with Fighting Fox an
Bull Lea having something t
redeem.

Dduber Better

It's too bad, they tell you.
that Lawrin is not eligible for
the PreakneSs. There's many a
man over in the barns who in
sists that Dauber is the better
horse, and with stronger and
wiser handling than he got on
Saturday would have won.
Did little Maurice Peters blum
der in the Derby?
Well, here's what one man
said this morning:
"Dauber didn't have no luck
atall in the Derby. He was in
all kinds O. trouble along the
way and couldn't drop into full
stride. But, at the stretch turn,
Lawrin bore out, and there was
Dauber's chance.
90 course, this is the hind.
sight on the race" said the old
timer. I'VE could win 'em all
If we could run 'em again. But
comm home Lawrin bore out
and left daylight on the rail.
Dauber mighta shot through
there, but little Peters took the
overland route. Every time
Arcaro hit him. Lawrin bore
out. Yeah, Dauber mighta cut
inside and won that race. I'd
like to see Dauber win for Dick
Handler on Saturday. He stables
right near me-"

 Abramsohn was East, sat West, Herman Goldberg South, and Mor- rie Ellis was the declarer and victim of the brilliant defense. Phil's open ing lead was won with dummys ace, and low spade dropped my queen. Now the f1nesse of the club queen was taken, and won't with the
