KENTUCKY DERBY 137 



he may well be proud. Under Fire's gameness and race horse 

 qualities enabled him to obtain third place, and some day, later 

 along, he is certain to develop into a cup horse of the best sort, 

 sound, long winded and hardy as they come. Regalo disappointed 

 me. Fillies, however, are ever uncertain in this spring season. 

 The form displayed by Vindex was altogether too bad to be true. 

 Maybe he has his peculiarities as had his grandsire St. Maclou. 

 Eternal did not have the appearance of a thoroughly trained 

 horse. Maybe he was more fit than was thought and does not 

 fancy a distance. As for the rest, they simply are not of Derby 

 calibre. The time, 2:093/5, was remarkably good, everything, 

 track and atmospheric conditions, considered and goes a long 

 way to show that the Kentucky Derby this year, at all events, 

 was a true run, honest race. "EXIT F "
