Lbuisvilk Race
Meet Opens With
Kentucky Derby i
LOUISVILLE. !<¥.. JI ay 11.- Ti ■
Louisville race meeting opens today,
with the Kentucky Derby the feature
of a fine card.
Major T. <'. McDowell is brimmin
with confidence over the prosy. t of
The Manager winning the dm-by. N
Dowell, speaking of the unexp»■■••■■<l. T
ness of the colt after bring : ip;
to Lexington, had this to say:
“Do not be uneasy about Tiw Mrnm
ger. The little turn did not affect him
at all. It was just like a mar who
might lose, a little sleep incident ,<> ''.w
change of climate and feeding condi
tions. and the next morning di does
riot seem as well‘as usual. V 1 The
Manager it was a. change of sure. m,cl
ings. water and feeding tint brought >n
the trouble. He'll win today.”
No rumor or any amount of w cm
is grdng to displace Wori'i as the fa
vorite, with The Manager the second
choice and Sonada close up.
The work of Free Lance is still < . us
ing comment. His speed shown h -
trials was of such high order ..nd h
improvement so startling that i “ •
caused many of the spe< n iter- to :
a long chance and play him in ’
Winter book. . The colt is in eh-;
hands, and his owner. George 1.--:
being a member of the st it<
commission and. a turfman of promi
nence, there can not he any doubt a. to
the sincerity of Mr. Long in Loijo-w ■
that he has a good chance to tnnk
his third win of the Kentucky I>■ ri>y.
He won t!i< much sought honm- with
Azra and Sir Huron, and al.-o bred the
winner of the derby of lxf'O, Mama i,
which he sold to A. H. and D. Morris
shortly before the r:ic ■.
