15.-If heart is what it takes to win
a race, you may nibble a new point
on your pencil, thumb over fresh
page in your leather bound black
book and mark down Little Beans
as very definite threat in the
Kentucky Derby.
Rocky Palladino, who conditions
the colt that runs in the colors of
his wife, Mrs. Louise Palladino, said
he was not discouraged by the
failure of Little Beans to win the
Parkton Handicap yesterday and
added chat he would be there when
the bugle blows for the blue grass

Mirafel and Florhi heads for Louis
