Racing's glamor boys Count

their stuff in a doubleheader at
Belmont park today that threat

record.
The Count, already the winner
of the Derby, Preakness and
Withers, is going to try to be
come the sixth triple crown
champion by adding the Belmont
stakes to his Kentucky and
Maryland triumphs and he fig
ures to be a cinch to do it against
tho two so-so steppers entered
against him.
He'll also be out to boost his
bankroll over the quarter-million
mark with the Belmont's top
take of approximately $38,000.
The Fleet already has earned
$214,960.
Whirly", making his first start
since injuring a leg six months
ago in New Orleans, comes back
in the Henry of Navarre handi
cap, a six-furlong $5000 dash he
won two years ago. If he can
make that win stick this time,
little Mr. Big Tail will raise his
record bank account to about
$565,000.
But he has a tough haul this
trip, especially as he will be
packing 126 pounds and will be
giving away up to 26 pounds to
some in the field of 13, including
his stablemate Sun Again; Mrs.
Tilyou Christopher's sprint ace,
Doublrab, and Mrs T. D. Grimes'
speedy With Regards. In addi
tion, the three-quarter mile route
hardly gives him time to throw
his distance running legs into

Count Fleet might just as well be
alone for all his opposition.
