KENTUCKY DERBY NOW RATED BUT
 TWO HORSE RACE
Mile Test Today at Chur- chill Downs Will Give
 Line on Whirlaway
BY JACK GUENTHER United Press Staff Correspondent


 Louisville, Ky, April 29-(UP)-A half dozen horses who are given little chance of answering the bugle for the Kentucky Derby Saturday got 8 final opportunity to prove their critics wrong today when they matched strides with Whirl- away in the Derby trial, last im- portant prep for the mint julep classic.
 Although badly whipped by Our Boots in his last outing, Whirlaway was the solid favorite to turn back the somewhat spotty field. Garry ing top weight of 118 pounds, he gave away three to Tom Bragg's Blue Pair and eight to LeXbrooke stables Shaun G, Tall Trees stables Quintilian, V. V. Longs Sporting. c. M. Finch's Burman and Shady Brook farms Cadmium.
 Originally considered a certain starter, Blue Pair dropped into the doubtful ranks when he was report ed suffering from a split and a saddle burn. A final decision on his status Is expected after his showing in the tough mile test on the fast Churchill Downs track today.
 King Cole Out
 The trial, which has drawn much better fields in previous years and yet has never produced 8 Derby winner, was all but -shadowed by other developments. One was the announcement that Irving An derson had been hired to ride Louis Tufano'S Market Wise on Saturday and another was the statement that while Wendell Eads would have the mount on Whirlaway in the trial, Eddie Arcaro definitely would be up in the Derby.
 The jockey lineup now is set. Buddy Haas will ride Porter's Cap; Conn McCreary, Our Boots; Johnny Gilbert, Swain; Carroll Herman, Dispose; Allie Robertson, Robert Morris; George Woolf, Staretor; Hugh Lemmons, Valdina Paul; Bill Thompson, Agricole and Don Meade, Little Beans.
 King Cole, Curious Coin, Master Henry and Full Cry, regarded as potential starters until yesterday, definitely will not be shipped south because their owners have decided they lack either class or the condi- tion for the Derby. Most forecasts call for g. field of Il or l2 starters, barring a complete upset in the trial.
