WORDENS SEASON CAMPAIGN Chicago Owner Opens Windy City Activities at Hawthorne. Requests Stable Accommodations for Forty Horses at Hawthorne No Decision on Make of Camera. 4 The extensive stable of T. C. Worden, Chicago horseman, won more races in Illinois during the 1935 season than any other in the business. Not far. back was the equally extensive string campaigned by Tony Pelleted, New Orleans trainer-owner. Both tho Worden and Pelleteri horses wlil be on hand for the entire thirty-one day Hawthorne meeting, it was learned today by president Albert Sabath of the Chicago Business Mens Racing Association. Stable reservations for the meeting opening May 23 neared the 750 mark following word that Pelleteri would have a string of forty thoroughbreds-here, with eight more for A. B. Letellier. Trainer Ben Jones of the Worden Stable, requested stalls for twenty-eight useful campaigners. Both requests were takn care of and the two are ready to go on from where they left off last fall. Pelleteri raced successfully at Santa Anita during the winter, ranking high there in purses won. Jones has had the Worden horses in Texas, and they will be shipped, from there to Hawthorne in the near future. Heading the Pelleteri list is the consistent three-year-old Derby prospect, Ttennob. Thi3 oddly-named fellow is being pointed for the Kentucky Derby, and his good form at Santa Anita has brought him some support in the future book. Ttennob will be named for the 5,000 added Chicago Derby that will be run June 20, at Hawthorne. Pelleteri is high on his chances to pick up the renewal of that famous event. Worden is another who holds a fine hand for the Chicago Derby, and will name several of his three-year-olds for that event. But the big horse in that division for the popular Chicagoan will be his Mansco, son of Polymelian Griselda. Mansco started ten times as a two-year-old and was victorious five times. He was one of the comparatively few juveniles to win two stake events. Following his victory in the Joliet Handicap at Lincoln Fields, Mansco moved to Hawthorne to turn in an impressive effort to take the Hawthorne Juvenile Handicap. His winnings for the season totalled 1,495. Nedrow will likely be named for the Chicago Derby as a running mate, and for a time last year Nedrow was considered the best of the Worden division. Meanwhile president Sabath and the Hawthorne directors are lining up officials for the meeting, and a decision will ba reached soon over the type of camera finish that is to be introduced to Chicago fans for the first time.
