1t appeared in the

age the other 10 were close and at least one
proved to be the most colossal wonder American
history.
That be Tip 1888 winner It was his first
and last victory.
WOULD splendid break for Pimlico which
needs Geentrees Tom Fool sufficiently to
out with Hill Gail in the week from Saturday
But with Tom Fool still Shelf recuperating from the
cough that kept him out of the Derby Caues oppo-
sition in the ancient -sixeenths Baltimore
could from colts that Louisville
This however, is all right with observers
who came away from the Derby convinced that Hill Gail be
beaten by Blue Man Sub Fleet Both eligible for the
Preakness along with Count Flame finished
vile, just behind Master Fiddle his stablemate.
While the withdrawal Fool do the Preakness no
good there be few other non-Deby whack
at Hill Gail in his quest Triple Crown John c. Clark
head man at Haleah has high hopes for his Charlie McAdm
VINO proved Monday Belmont that he back the form he
showed last winter in winning division of the Famngo
Charlie McAdam named for the McNaught Syndicate bigwg
has the speed go right with Hill GAIL
behind as he did in Mondays Swift Stakes
Then there the highyrated Primate third Char
lie McAam in the Flash and Suggested second in that
Handsome Teddy Even the unpredctab Cousin might feel like
getting out of bed and running.
But more interest witnesses Cars victory the
Derby return bout with Sub Fleet Blue Man To repeat
there those who felt that Caes Rider
Eddie Arcao had too much the better Of it in the Derby
fiat edge over Sub Fleet and Blue Man.
THERE IS NO question but what m Gail ran lesser dis
tance in the Derby than the other l6 colts the gods
beamed Calumet in respect including the luck of the
draw for post positions Hill Gail No and with his fast
break which included that forced the entire field
the outside, it didn't hurt him.
Blue Man must have farther nearly 20 lengths
something like so yardSthan Hill GAIL Sub Fleet
far outside Blue Man but nevertheless the
F1eetSub Rosa also longer than Hill GAIL At the nish
Sub Fleet not have been any less tired than the Calumet
colt but he travelling faster Another sixteenth of mile
and it's almost certain that photo sign would have flashed
But it's the Preakness that's coming up next hell
high water Larry MacPha and this shorter Made
to order for Hill Gail, maintain They could be right
There's beitlng Hill Calls speed That burst he put be-
tween the sevenulong and the mile poles last Saturday
breahtakng to behold Looked pretty good the cokers
watches, too-a cool 114s seconds.
THERE WAS NOBODY to deny that Hill Gail ridden
out colt at the finish His lead which lengths be-
tween charmaker calls had dwnded only two Sub Fleet
up fast under furnishing stretch drive.
Not every account emphasized the separate
Calumet colt Tuesday preceding the Derby he had the
mielong Trial ony Citation fraternity brother shares the
distinction of having both Hill in the track
ord time of 1855.
This precisely his time for the first mile in the Derby
brutal with another quarter to Hill Gail survived to
wind with the second fastest Derby record 2013,
fifth OF the time of Whrlaway another frat brother But in
contrast Why he took 26 seconds to do the last quarter
Whraway behind sort, roared down the stretch
in fiat "a seconds.
Apparently what lot of members of the KnockDown Hill
Gail Club want to the colt beat the likes of Blue Man, ct
cetea after passage not smooth last weeks Come to
think OF It, this isn't entirely unreasonable
