Not In years has there been so
much Interest In the Kentucky
derby, due lurgely to tho fact that
the race seems far more open than
usual.
The news that Talaris, so-called
"wonder horse," might not start
hes. of eoursn. added much test to
the sffulr, since It remove one of
the decidedly outstanding entries.'
Down Kentucky way turf fol
lower seem to think this is going
to be a Bradley year.
Thn recent showing of Bubbling
Over and Bool to Boot In finishing
first and secoud In a field made
up of Derby cltgtbirs, has caused
the stock of the p. lu Bradley sta
blo to soar.
In fuet, some or the experts are
Inclined to the oploloo that Brad

That would be a most amoxlng
and unusual performance and yt
It Is possible.
