LOUISVILLE, Ky, May 5 -yT)
'Nineteen three-year-old j horses,
one of them a filly that never has
started, J today accepted the issue
for the 70th Kentucky derby
America's mile and one-quarter
turf classic . that' is expected . to
draw upwards of 60,000 fans to
Churchill Downs tomorrow and be
run over a muddy track for the
first time in 15 years.
Not all likely will parade to the
post at 5:15 pjn. central war time,
but If .as many as i 18 of them
face Starter Reuben White itH be
the richest derby since Aristfde
galloped home in front Jn 1875
with CoL Matt Winn, impressario
of the blue ribbon event, viewing
the first of his 69 derbies 'from a
grocery; wagon on the backstretch.
Based on 19 starters, the race
will have a gross value of 888,200
with! the winner taking , down
$66,700. For each scratch the gross
value and purse to the winner will
be reduced by $500 the starting
fee that must be posted at least
45 minutes before post time. When
Shut Out won in 1942, he picked
up $64,225 from the total of $86,-
250 to set the financial record.
unere were omy, two surprises .
as the names were dropped into
the entry, box this morning. Co
manche Peak, who won a six and
one-half furlong race in the slop
yesterday, was named by Mrs.
Floyd West ' of Dallas, Tex. Then
45 minutes after the usual time
for closing of the entries, Charlie
Compton, Louisville owner and
trainer, dropped in the name of
Peace Bells a filly. that never
has started or even been 'consid
ered a remote possibility.!
Bain,! which soaked the racing
strip for nearly 36 hours, finally
stopped around noon. The sun'
broke j through , the clouds spas
modically but there was little en
couragement from , the weather
man that there would be suffi
cient warmth and; wind to dry out
the track by tomorrow, f
The last time the derby was
run over a muddy track in 1929
when Clyde Van Dusen Splashed
home ; on top as a terrific rain
storm broke over the downs.
