LOUISVILLE, KY, April g.
J. Warfeld Rodgers Kentucky
Derby candidate, DUO de Fer, is
q son of the first thoroughbred
ever owned by Rodgers. Due de
Fer is now in the East, getting
his final tests for the race May /
at Churchill Downs.
In 1941 Rodgers purchased a
S-year-old brown filly by Quatre
Bras II out of Dark Rose, by
Light Brigade. She was named
Lady Waterloo, and as a Swear
old won three of her II starts.
She was second five times and
earned $4,380. Lady Waterloo's
granddam was Hindoo Rose, a
daughter of the 1881 Kentucky
Derby winner Hindoo.
Since his original purchase,
Rodgers and his wife have been
regular attendants at prac-
tically every sale Of thorough
breds held in the Eastern United
States. Mrs. Rodgers has added
to their thoroughbred holdings
during the ensuing years, and
now owns a select band of brood
mares which are boarded in
Kentucky.
Rodgers is a building con-
tractor at Memphis. Tenn. When
ever he can get away from his
business he and his wife can be
found at a horse sale or a race
track.
Lady Waterloo'S foal in 1851
was a brown colt by Spy Song,
who finished second to Assault
in the 1916 Derby. Spy Song is
owned by Charles T. Fisher,
whose daughter, Mary. is close
friend of the Rodgers. The colt
was foaled at the Kentucky farm
Of the late Thomas Carr Piatt.
When lit came time to name
the colt, Rodgers applied for the
