GREAT ARRAY OF MATERIAL Approximately 1,300 Thoroughbreds Available for Downs Meeting. : Many Most Prominent Owners East and West to Have Representatives at Louisville Tracks. 1 LOUISVILLE, Ky., April 15. Although less than fifty per cent of them, which is about the ratio in the spring here, probably will not get to the post during the nineteen days of racing, approximately 1,300 horses will be quartered at Churchill Downs and adjacent Douglas Park when the curtain rises on the 1935 Kentucky season here two weeks from today. Of this vast array of racing material 850 will occupy stalls at Churchill Downs, those stabling at Douglas Park vanning over for engagements while the season is on at the former plant. To find suitable accommodations for so many thoroughbreds, their attendants and stable equipment and food has kept Tom Young, superintendent of the two tracks, with pencil in hand and on jaunts of search for weeks. The stall capacity of both had to be increased. A new barn, reserved for invading Derby candidates and their stable companions, was ordered at Churchill Downs, and Young rented a private stable adjoining the Derby course to take care of the increased number of horses H. J. Thompson is bringing down from Idle Hour Farm for E. R. Bradley. At Douglas Park Young had the old paddock converted into a stable accommodating some twenty horses and more or less temporarily stalls were thrown up where space within the large, roomy barns at that track permitted.
