Colonial Cup Features Top Race Field CAMDEN - The American steeplechase premier event, the $100,000 Colonial Cup, will have an outstanding field of United States-owned horses for its second running on Saturday, whi~le tie number of foreign runners has been reduced b* red tape and inhuries. The 2-mile, 6/2-furlong race over 17 jumps at the countryside setting of Springdale Race Course at Camden, will be televised Nk Eastern cLties live and the New York Off-Track Setting Coo, poration will conduct wagering on the otherwise officially betie" event. Stephen C. Clark, Jr.'s Shadow Brook, winner of four con-* secutive steeplechase stakes, leads the strong list of American horses in the Colonial Cup. Victory, wh'ch is worth $63,000, would assure Shadow Brook the U.S. steeplechasing championship, as it did to last year's winner Top Bid, also expected to start in the race. The Colonial Cup is the richest steeplechase in. the U.S. and second only to the Grand Steeplechase de Paris in value world wide. There are just five races on the card, the third of which is the Colonial Cup, and no parimutuel betting Is allowed under South Carolina law. Shadow Brook, second to Top Bid In the 1970 Colonial Cup, won the major tracks' most prestigious stakes race over lumps, the Temple Gwathmey, as well as the Brook, Grand National and Lovely Night handicaps. Mrs. Ogden Phipps' Top Bid was second in the Grand National and third in the Temple Gwathmey this season. Augustin Stable has named Wustenchef, a stakes winner ooth on the flat and over lumps, and Marion du Pont Scott, owner of the Springdale Course and chairman of the Colonial Cup Committee, will be represented by Soothsayer, winner of the New York Turf Writers Cup Handicap and the Broad Hollow. Inkslinger, Mrs. Martha S. Jenney's 1970 champion 3-year-old steeplechaser, is expected to start, as are C. S. Bird, Jr.'s Amarind and Mrs. Wallace Whittaker's Tingle Creek. Calvin Houghland's Bongocero was made a supplementary nominee at a cost of $5,000 in order to run in the Cup. European participation has been hampered by stringent quarantine regulations in effect because of the Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis outbreak this summer in Texas. Until Nov. 1, no horses shipping from the U. S. could enter European countries, which discouraged foreign nominations. These restrictive government rulings have caused several Irish and English owners and trainers to withdraw their horses, which would have to be kept out of competition at home for such a long period just when the steeplechase season abroad is gathering full steam. Earlier this week, only the American-owned Clever Scot from England and Norway's Grand National winner Overdose were scheduled for the trans-Atlantic trip. Former U.S. Ambassador to Ireland Raymond Guest, a member of the Colonial Cup Committee, will run in his Powhatan colors Smooth Dealer, who recently arrived in this country from Ireland and who will represent that nation.
