Wants No More of Coaltown BELMONT PARK, Elmont, L. I., N. Y., May 7. — Trainer Willie Knapp said this morning that he wants no further part of Coaltown, "positively." Knapp had expressed his reluctance to run Mrs. E. L. Hopkins Three Rings against the Calumet champion before, but today he said, "Well run in the Metropolitan Saturday if Coaltown doesnt go, but if he starts, we wont. I dont care how much weight Coaltown gets, Three Rings wont run against him any more." Three Rings finished second to Coaltown in the Gulfstream Handicap and was third behind the son of Bull Lea and Vulcans Forge in last Saturdays Gallant Fox Handicap.
