BEST BEHAVED FIELD LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 5.— William Hamilton, who will be starting his fourteenth Kentucky Derby tomorrow, believes the field will prove one of the easiest hes ever been called upon to handle, certainly the best behaved since 1931 when he required only a minute and a half to catch the starters in alignment. El Chico, Xalapa Clown, Challedon and Challenge are the only members of the overnight field with which Hamilton has had no personal contact, but the Churchill Downs official has been advised that all are, good post horses.
