Town?
Veteran horsemen, Just re
covering from the surprise of
' Dark Star's 25 to 1 triumph in
' Saturday's run for the Roses at
. Churchill Downs, were busily
debating that Jtiig post-Derby
question today as both Star
eolts were readied for ship
. ' ment to Belmont Park.
Many of the hard boots very
? frankly said they thought the
' best horse didn't win the Der
by even the official chart of
the race declared the second
place Native Dancer 'probably
was tne Dest" in the field.
And these were stoutly argu
ing Al Vanderbilt's big gray
colt will wreak revenge on
Dark Star when the two clash
on May 23 in the second
"Jewel" of the triple crown,
the $100,00 added Preakness
Stakes at Plmlico.
Many Champion Loser
On the other, 'hand, Dark
Star's new legion of fans point
ed out that the Preakness is a
slxteenth-of-a-mlle shorter than
haul Dark Star in the Derby,
he'll never do H in a shorter
rsce. i
. jocsey jMnrl Moreno was
reaping a major share of the
praise from the hardbooti for
his winning ride on Dark Star.

speedy horse off in front and

Movie Ride
"He couldn't have ridden a
better race if I had given him
a blueprint," said Hayward.
There's no argument at all
that Native Dancer-had -what
one trainer called a "rough
trip" in the Derby, he was
jostled by Money Broker on
the first turn and then some
what boxed in.
"My horse sot slouched on
the first turn," said bitterly
disappointed jockey Xric Gue-
rin. "And, besides, he didn't
seem to like the track."
Some Native Dancer fans
were blaming Guerln for not
keepinng his previously un
beaten steed out of trouble.
They said that he should have
kept Native Dancer clear and
that, by failing to do so, he
generously overlooked Native
Dancer's bad racing luck with
the joint comment that they
have "no alibis" for his defeat.
Both Winfrey and Xd Kay-
ward, trainer of Dark Star, dis
closed that their horses came
out of the Derby in "perfect
condition" Winfrey denied
that the Dancer had developed
ankle trouble. Winfrey said
Native Dancer probably will
make his next start in the rich
Withers Stakes at Belmont,
the pack perfectly to clock May IS, but Hayward indicated
the Derby, and they argue that cost the favorite at least four
u nauve uancer eouian't over 'lengths.
the Derby champion probably
woul not run again until the
following week's Preakness. .
"Jewel," the $100,000 Belmont
Stakes, is another three weeks
after the Preakness, on June

Salem's own Tony Ross, who
wrestled world's heavyweight
champion Lou Thez a few
months ago, would like to get
a shot at world's junior heavy
weight champion Danny Mc
Shain, too.
All that stands between Ross
and a match with McShain is
tomorrow night's one - night
wrestling tournament at the
Salem armory.
Ross and seven other wres
tlers will compete in the
single - elimination tourney,
with the winner to enter the
ring against McShain the fol
lowing week.
Wrestlers entered hi tomor
row's tournament will draw
for positions just before the
j start of the tournament. i
