THE BATTALION
Preakness Field May Race For Largest Payoff
BALTIMORE <A>> — Francie’s
hat, the third finisher in the Ken
tucky Derby, was declared out
of the Preakness Wednesday by
trainer Jimmy Conway.
Conway called 1 the Pimlico rac
ing secretary’s office from New
York and said A1 Lippe’s colt
“has a problem.” He did not ela
borate.
Meanwhile, Dancer’s Image was
feeling frisky just three days be
fore the 93rd running of the
Preakness, following first tapping
of his bothersome right ankle.
But there were some diixious
moments Tuesday night for his
handlers ati Pimlico following the
tapping.
A stable connection said the
tapping of the fluid in the ankle
was done with trainer Lou Cav-
alaris present before Cavalaris
left for Fortj Erie, Ont., and then
for Louisville for the continuing
stewards’ hearing into Dancer’s
Image’s disqualification in the
Kentucky Derby.
“Tuesday night he just would
n’t walk,” the stable connection
said of the colt. “You couldn’t
move him, but today he is feeling
fine.”
Dancer’s Image walked with his
full weight on the ankle, grazed
and was in noticeably good spirits
Wednesday. He is scheduled to
gallop three miles Thursday.
The other hopefuls for the
Preakness also took it easy Wed
nesday, with no workouts held.
Charles Sngelhard’s Jig Time
galloped and is expected to work
five furlongs Thursday, and James
L. Skinner said his Yankee Dad
would go a half mile Thursday.
If Yankee Lad goes, he is ex
pected to join 10 other 3-year-
olds for the second jewel of the
Triple Crown.
Post time is 4:30 p.m., CDT,
with national television coverage
from 4 p.m. to 4:46 p.m. by CBS.
If 11 start in the 1 3/16 mile
test, it would have a gross purse
of $197,200, with $144,700 to the
winner, making it the richest
Triple Crown race ever. The cur
rent record is the $194,000 Preak
ness in 1967.
Other probable Preakness start
ers:
Calumet’s Forward Pass, Mrs.
Mildred Beall’s Martins Jig, Gene
Goff’s Nodouble, Robert J. Kle
berg’s Out Of The Way, W. R.
Hawn’s Poleax, Richard Dufour’s
and Joseph Richard’s Sir Bean
and John Nero’s Wood-Pro.
