Tom Fool Wins Pimlico Special Sets New Record BALTIMORE (AP)--Tom Fool ran one of his most magnif cent victories of the 10 straight he has scored this year by gliding to a track record in the Pimlico Special Saturday. His only two competitors, E. P. Taylor's Navy Page and Hampton Stable's Alerted, never threatened him for the mile and three six- teenths and he finished eight lengths in front. The four - year - old Greentree Stable colt skimmed around Pim- lico in 1:55 4-5, a fifth faster than Capot's record set May 14, 1949. Alerted ran second most of the way, but the closest he could get to the smooth-rolling Tom Fool was three lengths at the three-quarter mark. The Toronto industrialist's Navy Page came on in the stretch to nose out Alerted for second place. The $30,000 special first prize boosted Tom Fool's total ear "ings to $570,165 and elevated him from 10th to seventh in the all time standings.
