to defeat Cathedral of Trenton
N. j., 1886, and win the 26th
annual Eastern States Catholic

tonight.
The Stays, leading 1927 at
halftime, outscored the New
Jersey State Class A Catholic
champions 20-14 in the third
period en- route to their second
consecutive ESCIT champion
ship. The Stays finished the
season with a 32-4 record.

In the third period, Mcbride,

and the Stays pulled away. In
the final quarter. a zone press,
which hurt DeMatha In the

In a couple Of fleeing Sec
onds Candy Spots pulled away
with ridiculous ease.
In a Florida Derby where
the biggest margin Of victory
had been the length and a
half by which Gen. Duke won
over four other horses in 1857,
Candy Spots superiority was
overwhelming.
Sky Wonder, winner of the
1868 Bahamas and Hutchinson
Stakes, finished a neck in front
of Cool Prince, who in turn was
half a length better than the,
fading Gray Pet. In order came
King Toots, Hot Dust. B. Major
and the disappointing Sky
Gem, the Fred Hooper colt that
had finished second to Candy
Spots in the Santa Anita Derby
Sky Wonder paid $50 to
place and $3.40 to show. Cool
Prince returned $40. Second
Place was worth $4,000, with
Cool Prince earning $4,000,
Gray Pet $1,000, and King
Toots $4,000.
Saved Ground
Most turf observers felt that
Candy Spots triumph was at
least on a par with Never
Bends victory in the Flamingo
Stakes at Hialeah, when the
co-favorite for the Kentucky
Derby made every pole a win
ming one. Running the same
distance, Never Bend was
clicked in l:492s. but the HI
aleah strip was harder and
faster than Gulfstream's.
"Our slow start may have
been the best thing" Shoe
maker added in the Jockeys
quarters, "for we went right to
the rail and saved ground all
the way. He had no trouble
handling the track"
1t was Shoemaker's second
Florida Derby victory, as well
as the second for a California
horse. The Shoe rode the Cali
fornia-owned Correlation in
1854.
Although the last eight win
ners or place horses in the
Gulfstream classic have gone
on to become either 3-year-old
champions or horses-of-the-
year, trainer Tenney said he
felt Never Bend would be the
Kentucky Derby favorite. mo
matter what happens"
He added, Candy Spots is a
little underweight and drawn.
He was lighter today than he'll
be for the Kentucky Derby.
This was due to the cross
country trip and the ragged
training schedule we've been
forced to follow.
THE colt will be better
trained for Kentucky. He was
nervous and unhappy in the
gate, which was on account Of
his sloppy training"
Tenney plans to keep him in
Florida for about a week, then
ship direct to Louisville.
