Coaltown. ridden by Jockey Steve Brooks, was loaded down with 130 pooads. compared to 12S pounds which Equipoise carried and 118 for Prevaricator in their record runs.

Welterweight Champion Ray Robinson and 160 pound Contender Steve Belloise, both gunning for a middle weight title shot, fight for the chance at Yankee statdium Wednesday night Th non-title ten rounder bet ween a master boxer and a ter rific puncher shapes up as the fistic "natural" of the year. Besides sharing in an expected gate of a round $150,000, the boxers will b pitching for a promised first crack at either Champion Jake Lamotta or Marcel Cerdan. King Jake and the Frenchman meet in return bout here Sept. 28. Interest in th fight has picked up considerable in th past few days and the promoting Interna tional boxing club predicts 25,000 or more fans will pay from $2 to $16.50 to see the contest. The scrap will be broadcast but will not be televised. It is slated to start at 9 p.m. (EST). Robinson is rated about a 5 to 9 favorite but the odds may drop several points by fight time. One of the reasons is the optimism shown by the Belloise camp and the unexpected gloom which has permeated the Robinson training quarters at Pompton Lakes, N. J, of late. A rift has developed in the Robinson camp. Manager George Gainford stalked out of the camp the other day, complain ing about the methods of the var ious trainers. Robinson hasn't looked himself in training and is even talking pessimistically of re tirement.
