Signal Box Triumphant THE CURRAGH, County Kildare, Eire, May 16 Reuters .— F. W. Dennis Signal Box, by Signal Light, out of Mushaq, raced to a six-length triumph in the Irish Two Thousand Guineas classic over eight furlongs here today. Starting as the heavily backed 5 to 4 favorite and ridden by the versatile Irishman, Martin Molony, he beat Rock Lighter, a 10 to 1 chance, with the outsider, Ocean Echo, three parts of a length away in third place among the 16 starters. Signal Box, full brother to the disappointing British horse, Masked Light, is trained by Captain Darby Robers at Crotanstown, near Curragh.
