Sports: Run For The Roses An eight-to-one shot, coming from nowhere in the stretch, outruns four other horses to take the (88th running) Kentucky Derby in record time. "Decidedly" clips a full second from "Whirlaway's" 1941 record. Crowds milling around. CU sign with horse shoe reads DERBY 1962. Three women seated in lawn chairs, wear hats. Woman speaking - no sound - with drink in hand. Willie Hardtack, number 5 on sleeve. Eddie R. Carole ? signing autographs. View from upper deck of starting gate. CU hand on lever, thumb pushes down, bell sound (audio). Horses run out of gate. Man looking through binoculars. Two older men in crowd wear hats and sunglasses, waving on horses behind fence. Man slaps paper in hand, after losing race, (disappointment) woman standing next to him with turban hat and glasses seems to laugh at outcome. Horse and jockey (wearing number 3) in winners circle.
