Kentucky Derby Fields Could Break Starter Record

Louisville May 6 The Kentucky Derby may see a field near 20 starters on May 13 at Churchill Downs for the 1916 race worth 15090 to the winner. Prominent entries include Regret era contenders such as Thunderer Dominant and Prince Hermis among a long list from Whitney Macomber and Ward stables. The Derby weights trace back to 1866 with notes on past top weights and Rosebud’s 2 08 3 5 record, while Latonia Derby prospects loom as the meeting spans June 14 to July 11 with Harold Stakes among nine stake events.
