NINETEEN STARTERS PUT UP BRAVE FRONT Wonderful Horsa Dlstaaees All at Start aad Leads Practically from Post to Wire, Wlaalng by Six Lengths. CHICAGO, June 30. -The Picket, a horse that never before flashed flrat past tha post, won the American Derby today. Hs set the pace every step of the dlKtance, was never challenged and won In a gallop by six lengths. He ran the Derby distance, one and a half miles, faster than It was ever run In the race, his time being 2:33. Claude, the winner of three Derbies, was second. Bernays, the Cincinnati candidate, waa third. The crowd of 70,000 people which wit nessed the sixteenth American Derby, saw a contest which was already decided whan tha field turned into the stretch. In front of a struggling Held. The Picket ran so easily and truly as to leave no doubt where he would finish, consequently the roar of cheers which greeted him began when he was more than an eighth of a mile from the wire. Breaks All Kinds of Records. The Dorby wa a record-breaking turf event In more ways than one. Nineteen horses went to tho post, the largest previ ous field being fifteen. The largest crowd that ever gathered on a western race track covered the Washington Park grounds. The race was worth XX1.275, gross value, tha richest In the history of the ruce, with one exception. Betting on the result began In March and continued until the horses wont to the post. More money, it Is aserted, waa wagered on the Derby than on any other race ever run in America. The victory cf The Picket was no sur prise, because a surprise was expected, but there were some big disappointments. Savable, the favorite, son of Salvator, thought by John A. Drake to be Invincible, failed to live up to hla reputation. Ha re ceived a ride from Jockey Lester Relff that a novice could have duplicated. Bavable was never dai gerous and ths fortune bet on blm by his owner. all want to enrich the bookmakers. Starter Dwyer delayed tha start nine min utes before he dropped tha Hag. Winner Simon, a "dark horsa." was the flrst to get In motion, but Ths Picket did not delay aa Instant.. In tha nrot rush for positions be was successful and he had ths lead tn com paratlvaly a few strides. Past tha stand Ail Re voir, tha hopa of Memphis, was running second, with Ullfain, Maxey Blumenthal and other conspicuous candidates In the next positions. There was no hustling un til the field struck tha back stretch. 8av bla was In seventh place and tn front of htm were The Picket, Au Revolr, Linguist, Bonny Burr, Gold Bell and Bad News. Im mediately behind was Claude. Picket Never Falters. There was not an Important mova by a Jockey till tha field had paased tha half mile pole and struck tha big bend. Tha Picket, then running at his own clip, never fatered. An Revolr began to weaken. Lin guist was all through and began to drop back. Claude made his movs snd qulokly advanced to fourth place. Savable st this critical place only held his own. Ths grad ually lengthening field of horses was st the head of the stretch. Ths remainder of tha Journey was through a lane of people who were clinging to the rails 100 deep on either sids of the course. There was no electrify ing final struggle. The Picket had his Held beaten, and beaten badly. He was simply running as hs pleased. Jockey Helgsson eased him up a bit aa he neared tha wire. The race was over and a Kentucky horsa bad won. Claude was easily the best of the other start eis. He came fast tn the stretch, but little Johnny Daly saw he had no chanco to catch The Picket and also eased up, but almost too soon, as Bernays came on grandly from the center of the field and hitched up In a drive with 8avable for tha shortest end of ths purse. Bernays got It by a neck. Judge Hlmes, the horse that had Jumped into popularity and was heavily backed within a week, failed to make a showing. The fast track was against him. Hs rap idly went to last position after ths start and stayed there. He was forty lengths behind when Tha Picket reached the wire. Tha Picket la a bay colt, by Falsetto Voltario. Ho waa bred by his owners, Mld dleton Ac Jungbluth. at Louisville. Hs raa last year, but never won, and consequently carried the light burden of 115 pounds. Tha Picket was regarded as a dangerous can didate. Last Tuesday he was worked over the Harlem track In preparation for ths Derby In almost record time. He covered the mils and a half In 2:33. Ths time waa so fast that many people doubted ths trutu of tha reported workout. Track Bettlag is Light. The betting at the track waa tha lightest tn years. Tha bookmakers wrote aa many tickets as usual, but the amounts were small, as all the big bettors laid their money In the future books.
