THE INDIANAPOLIS STAR THURSDAY, MAY 1, 1975 WILL HAX1ILK AVATAR IX DERBY PAGE 37 I I I Shoe9 Loses Diabolo To Pincay UNiROYAL PR-6 WHITEWALL ZETA SHOE, ered definite starters with three others undecided. Definite: Diabolo, Avatar, Prince Thou Art and Sylvan Place, John L. Greer's Foolish Pleasure, Golden Chance Farm's Master Derby, Big I Farm's Promised City, Roland Aristone's Bombay Duck, Elmendorf's Media, R.F. Roberts' Honey Mark, Hobeau Farm's Round Stake, Anthony Leggio's Bold Chapeau, Pedro Diaz' Gatch and Clarence Benjiman's Fashion Sale. Louisville, Ky.

(UPI) It may be heresy, but Diabolo's trainer Sid Martin has picked Laffit Pincay over the great Willie Shoemaker as his jockey for Saturday 101st Kentucky Derby. Martin apparently found the Shoe's ride aboard Diabolo in the Santa Anita Derby unsatisfactory. After he finished a disappointing third behind Avatar in the race, Martin replaced Shoemaker with Pincay. The qufet, gentlemanly, trainer refuses to blame Shoe maker for Diabolo's three-length loss to Avatar or to comment on the jockey change. But films of the race show Frank McMahon's colt was hemmed in with no room to move throughout the stretch turn after being handicapped by a faltering start.

In his initial ride aboard Diabolo in the California Derby, with blinkers added for the first time, Pincay held on as the Damascus colt set a Golden Gate track record with a 1:46 3-5 time for the full 1 1-8 mile, good "Strength isn't his forte. He does it with finesse." Asked if a strong rider is needed aboard Diabolo, Martin said, "Looks like it doesn't hurt him." Martin said he knew he had a good one on his hands when he first got Diabolo. "He gave every indication all along," the former Canadian jockey said. "I always thought he was the best colt out there (the West Coast), but I was having a helluva time proving it." Arthur Seeligson's Avatar and Darby Dan Farm's Sylvan Place each worked out yesterday morning before a steady rain began. Avatar went five furlongs in a smart 1:00 as trainer Tommy Doyle a i at BR 78-13 "11 11 SIM Mxr Hi tin Mo.

Diabolo's time at Golden Gate made him only the second horse in history to run one of the nine-furlong Derby preps in less than 1:47. General Duke was the first in 1957, but he broke down on the eve of the classic. Shoemaker, meanwhile, picked up the mount on Avatar and will be going for his fourth victory.

He captured his first Derby with Swaps in 1935 and also won with Tomy Lee in 1959 and Lucky Debonair in 1965. Pincay, three times the nation's leading money-winner, is still looking for his first Derby victory. His best finish in three tries was second aboard Sham in 1973 when i Sommer's colt tied the old mark but ran second to Secretariat's Derby and track mark of 1:59 2-5. Although Martin will not go into the reasons for switching from Shoemaker, he did say, when asked to analyze the 43-y a -o 1 ace's style, Still giving the Derby consideration are Golden Chance Farm's Paris Dust, John W. Mecom's Rushing Man and Mildred Bachelor's Naughty Jake.
