OF Bradley Soar
By the Associated Press.

LOUISVILLE, KY, May &c.
Hopes for a nth Kentucky Derby
winner glowed brightly for Col E
r. Bradley at Churchill Downs to-
day as his Burning Dream won the
mile trial somewhat easily over
nine other eligibles.
Burning Dream finished q length
and half ahead of c. c. Tanners
Best Effort, with Lookout Farms
Foreign Agent following by two

The big disappointment of the
crowd of approximately $4,000 was
John Marsch'S Free For All, rank
ing Derby favorite, which struggled
in for fourth after setting the early
pace.
Burning Dreams time was 1:3a
1/5. He paid $3.50.
The Derby Trial, fifth race on

a lucky number for Jockey Doug
Dodson, who rode Burning Dream
It was Dodson's fifth victory as q
rider for Col. Bradley's Idle Hour
Farm. 1t was also the fifth time
Dodson had been employed to dc
the booting for Col. Bradley.
Dodson. however, is not to have a
chance to continue his victory
string since he is a contract rider
for Calumet Stable, which has as
pirations for the big heat with Pot
OJuck.
Also rams included free for all's
stable mate, Art Roi, Shady Brook
Farms Sandslinger, Indian Rock
stables Darien, Brent and Talbot's
