Special Touchs Injury Not Serious; May Start Saturday HOLLYWOOD PARK, Inglewood, Calif., ., May 15. — Special Touch grabbed her left t quarter during the running of Fridays s Premiere Handicap, and although the cut t was quite obvious, the injury is only minor, trainer Allen Drumheller said this morning. He naturally was highly pleased with her r effort, especially with the slight handicap p she had to overcome in getting off slowly. She left the gate slower than he could ever r recollect, and he feels that this was because - she had grabbed her quarter immediately - after the start. Drumheller was undecided on whether or r not he will start her in the Golden State e Breeders Handicap next Saturday, but he e did engage Jack Westrope this morning to o ride her. Bill Shoemaker, of course, cant t ride her back as he is signed on Moonrush i for the Breeders.
