KINGS HORSE A WINNER Special Cablegram. KEMPTON PARK, Eng., April 13. King Edwards stable brought delight to thousands of racing followers today when Feola, an outsider in the betting, outraced a field of seventeen to win the prized Easter Plate, a seven-furlongs dash for three-year-olds. When Feola, wearing the colors of Lord Derby, who is operating the kings stable during his mourning period, thundered by the winning post there was tremendous cheering. The women in the crowd were particularly jubilant, for most of them had wagered on the kings horse purely because of sentiment and the odds of 12 to 1 came as a heartening surprise. Feola won by a neck over R. Middlemass Fair Play. D. McCalmonts Kings Gap was third.
