Sun Portland, Paradisical, Tearout and d Others Expected to Furnish a Thrill- ing Contest. • i CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 27.— A "dark horse" is expected to prove one of the prin- l~ J cipal contenders in the Ohio Derby, ,000 added, which is to be run on Saturday, July - r 6, at Thistle Down Park. This became evi- J" j dent when I. J. Collins Paradisical was vic-l " torious over Sun Portland, Illinois Derby » j i j winner, last week at Detroit. It also was J | ■ emphasteed with the crushing defeat of . , , Phil Reuters Roman Soldier in the Ameri- j j ■ can Derby and with the marked improve-i ment of J. F. Clarks Clang; D. B. Midkiffs , s | ! : ] Tearout, winner of the Latonia Derby; L. * i . Beydas Banish Fear and L. E. Komorous 3 1 j 1 Chief Cherokee. j Expert observers as well as horsemen in n ! , general are of the opinion that the three- J" j ; j j year-olds of this season have yet a long way j I , to go in deciding the championship. Black i Helens victory in the American Derby, the e i | , defeat of Omaha by Rosemont and the vie- ~~ . | tory of Sun Portland over Roman Soldier !.r I | and Sun Portlands defeat by Paradisical, : makes the three-year-old title one which is ls , . j considerably muddled. j Cleveland fans are looking forward to one ie of the most open races in history of the e i Ohio Derby, which was begun with the vie- 2~ ! tory of Black Gold in 1924. They point to ° j the possibility of an upset inasmuch as Sun n j I Portland and Paradisical meet again and in n the same race will be Tearout, Clang, Eddie ie | j J., Beaver Dam and others. j The nominations for the Ohio Derby close e | on Saturday, June 29, and racing secretary f I j Richard Leigh announces the following * | nominations received to date: Phil Reuters s j Roman Soldier; Mrs. Silas Masons Sun n j ! Portland; L. E. Komorous* Chief Cherokee; ;:* ! j L. Beydas Banish Fear; Odessa Farms Ed- ? j j die J.; D. B. Midkiffs Tearout; T. E. Keat- t_ I ] ings McCarthy; Milky Way Farms Blue *e I Armor and Gallaclay; Wm. Hinphys Dark * Woman; Old Gold Stables Transmutable; ~[ J. Collins Paradisical; J. F. Clarks Clang; » j. s. Mulvihills Beaver Dam; Morris Grin-l. a" | ers Double B.; T. C. Wordens Prince Splen-;-!dor; a~ | B. Hernandez Moratorium. i General manager Eddy said he had posi-- il_ tive assurances that Sun Portland would be De l shipped here as will Paradisical. He also is is i in communication with D. B. Midkiff and :: says he has high hopes that Tearout will come. Others who have signified their in-!" n- tention of shipping here include Beaver er Dam, McCarthy, Blue Armor, Eddie J., Chief Cherokee, Banish Fear and Prince Splendor. He said that because of Roman Soldier going ... amiss in the American Derby, he will 1 not know until next week whether the De- e" troit Derby winner will come. Clang and 1 j Moratorium are already on the grounds. I Railroad and boat officials have written 1 ; j to general manager Eddy saying that spe- . ! cial week-end rates would prevail over their 1 j | lines from nearby points. He said that he ie ! expected a large influx of visitors in view of the fact that the all-star baseball game !J on the Monday following the Derby would also prove a magnet for fans seeking an in exciting week-end. Both Sun Portland and Paradisical are r expected to be shipped here this coming Jjj Monday, according to general manager Eddy. Special barns have been set aside for °£ the Derby candidates. It is Clevelands first 2 Derby since 1932 when Economic captured the event. a
