fSPoms DERBY CLASSIC v AN OPEN EVENT Opinion of Turfmen Diversified—Dark Horses Feared. LOUISVILLE, May 7.—Every entrant for the Kentucky derby Saturday has been put through the crucial training teat, and never has there been a derby where opinion of handicappers and competent turfmen has been so diversified. Out of a possible nineteen starters for the forty-sixth running every one has its followers. It is conceded that the Whitney entry. Wildair and Damask, will be favorites, l rainer .limmy Rowe also may send to the post Upset or John P. Grier, but this is not likely. Final trials of the latter two colts have not come up to expectations. Wildair and Damask worked together in a final trial, doing the mile and a quarter in 2;053-5. DOSSACOSSA AS SECOND CHOICE. Although not as fast as the trial of Whitney colts, Donnaconna's final was not less impressive. The son of Prince Palatine stepped it in 2:09 2-3 and was uot extended at any part. Vitb On Watch as the other member the Loft pair will undoubtedly be second choice. Donnsconna has been .under colors but once this spring, add he was then defeated by a scant half length by Peace Pennant. Peace Pennant will get the backing of Kentuckians, and especially these who saw him perform at Lexington, He went the Derby route yesterday in 2:08 3-5, but apparently was never "let down." The Parr pair, Blazes and Paul Jones, are not out of the race. Should the track be heavy Blazes' chances would be improved, as he likes the mud. This pair stepped off the final workout in 2:10 2-5 and Blazes seemed a tired horse after it was over. bersagliere does TRLAL IN 2:06.

Looming among the dark horses are Sterling and Bersagliere. Both colts have worked the full route in 2:06. Bersagliere has been proclaimed the beat looking animal in the race and his owner. Gifford A. Cochran, jubilant over hi* workout, says he also is a contender in other than a beauty show. The ease with which he hung up the 206 made his trial the more impressive. Then there's Sandy Beal, a big, rawboned, lumbering chestnut colt, who is bred to run all day. He had it on Paul Jones and Wlndair in his only start this season. That was in the Chesapeake stakes at Havre dc Grace when he beat the pair like breaking sticks, coming from behind and running over his field at the end. One is compelled to give this colt a good chance ou dope. Prince Pal. the Sims colt, has many followers, and if Jockey Clifford Robinson. recently purchased by Sims, rides him, ha wiil be in good hands. Prince Pal has been admirably trained. There is some doubt as to whether Robinson will pilot him, 8S Jockey Sehuttingfr iready had been engaged for this mount before Robinsoa'6 contract was bought. W. R. Coe’s fast filly. Cleopatra, set tongues a-wagging at the Downs yesterday. when she went the Derby route In 2:06 3-5, doing the task handily. Work watchers who saw the filly ne*Sotiate the route expressed the opinion that her work was decidedly the best of any of the entrants at the Downs. Cleopatra is said to be the choice of Trainer Guy Bedwell. The Hildreth jockev. L. Fator, will have the mount on Wildair. Ambrose will riue Damask. ”h*- va> -ruu>"| pf whs* is predicted will be the largest crowd that ever l ;■ Kentucky Derby is already here ud hotels are swamped with requests for rooms.
