Final Chance For Horses to Prove Worth

My Request Has Edge In Race Tomorrow

NEW YORK, Apr: 25 (UP)— ws this week-end or never for the thoroughbred owners who still hope to develop a three-year-old racer to challenge Citation in the 1948 Kentucky Derby. - When the week's sport is concluded tomorrow, all the major prep races for the Louisville classic—with the exception of the Derby trial—will be history, and the field for the Derby will pe in clearer focus. Maryland previewed its Derby candidates last week-end in: the

Chesapeake Stakes and didn’t| th

come UP anything new, Actually, it eliminated several, and the result looked like a carbon copy of what most people expect in the run for the roses —Citation all by himself at the

ish. Ah Draws Large Field But in New York, the Wood Memorial comes up for decision tomorrow and the leading candidates in the state get one more chance to prove they deserve a train ride to Kentucky. The Wood carries $40,000 in added money and is well worth winning in its own right. It usually draws a large field, and three times in the last four years the entrants were so numerous

that the stake had to be run in|

two divisions. Ben F. Whitaker's My Request, the first horse to sweep both sections of the experimental handicap, probably will rule the favorjte for the mile and a sixteenth Wood. He just about has to win and win it convineingly to be consideted a serious threat to Citation. The others who are expected to run against My Request all have blots on their records. But the past will be forgotten if Better Self, Star Bout, Kilroy, or Salmagundi can snap out of the doldrums in the Wood and turn in a convincing performance.

The other clubs from Mobile of the Southern Association down to Sheboygan of the Class D Wisconsin league are either owned outright or tied up in working agreements.
