Bonjour
Victor in
Derby Trial
Br HAY AYRES
Louisville, Ky. - (liPt - A
field of eight shaped up tor
the 89th running of the Ken
lucky Derby at Churchill
Downs on Saturday with
Candy Spots, the oddly mark
ed colt from California, a
(trong favorite to win Ameri
ca's greatest horse race.
The ranks of the probable
starters dwindled rapidly
Tuesday with two owners giv
ing up prior to the running of
the $16,200 Derby Trial and
five more apparently bowing
out after Bonjour gave them
a lesson in stretch running in
the final prep for the first of
the triple crown classics.
Left to oppose Candy Spots,
which boasts a perfect record
of six victories in six races,
were No Robbery, another un
beaten horse, Never Bend and
Chateaugay which are un
beaten as 3-year-olds, and
Bonjour, Gray Pet, On My
Honor and Royal Tower.
These eight represent the
smallest field to face the start
er in the Kentucky Derby
since the Calumet Farm entry
of Citation and - Coaltown
scared away all but four
rivals.
Cam Closest
Bonjour is the horse which
came closest to spoiling Candy
Spots' unblemished record
when he was nosed out in a
sprint race at Santa Anita last
winter. He won the Trial with
long drive which started on
the turn into the stretch and
continued through the straight
away. At the end of the mile
race run in 1:36 25 over a
"slow" track, the California
bred colt was three-quarters of
a length ahead of Gray Pet
with On My Honor another
five lengths farther back.
; Then came Jet Traffic
which will not start in the
first of ihe triple crown clas
sics. Instead the Canadian
bred colt will be pointed for
the Queens Plate in mid-June.
- Behind Jet Traffic were
Wild Card, Sleuth Hound, In
vestor and Rajah Noor. None
are expected back for the
Derby while Lemon Twist and
Devil It Is were declared out
Tuesday morning.

Denver Skipper
Protests Tilt
By RON SUPINSKI
United Press International
Denver manager Jack Tighe
was up in arms today over
his team's 7-6 loss to Seattle
Rainiers.
Tighe lodged a formal pro
test of the game on grounds
that R. G. Smith, a Seattle
reliever, did not officially
pitch to one man when called
from the bullpen in the ninth
inning of last night's game at
Denver. Rules state that a
pitcher must face at least one
batter.
Seattle manager Mel Par
nell brought in R. G. Smith
when relief pitcher George
Spencer had a 3-2 count on
Denver's Eddie Haas. Smith
threw one pitch and walked
Haas, but the walk was of
ficially credited to Spencer.
Then Parnell brought in
Pete Smith to replace R. G.
Smith and Tighe issued his
protest.
