SEABISCUIT WINS SANTA ANITA’CAP Kavak II Is Second, Whichee Is Third As ’Biscuit Breaks Money Mark By ROBERT MYERS LOS ANGELES, March 2— <-P) — Mighty Seabiscuit won the greatest race of a great racing career today. Rounding out one of the most amazing chapters in the colorful an nals of the American turf, the gal lant Seabiscuit captured the sixth running of the $100,000 added Santa Anita Handicap and reached the crown point of a goal of gold. He became the greatest money winner of all time, and one of the most be loved thoroughbreds in the game. Breaks Record Rolling down to victory in his third crack at the top prize of this world's richest horse race, with the roar of a record crowd of 75,000 pulling him in, the 7-year-old war rior of the west outgained and out charged his 12 rivals in a glorious performance that broke the track record. It was a double triumph for the feare*! and odds-cn favored combina tion of Charles S. Howard, for liis Kayak II, winner of the 1939 Santa Anita Handicap, ran second in a burst of speed that brought him to the front in the closing strides, one length back of his faipous stable Maj. Austin C. Taylor’s Whichee, pace setter in this mile and one quarter classic, ran third as the out come seesawed back and forth in the big drive for the wire. Victory for the mighty stake king, which came after a year’s layoff and after the horse once was believed through with racing, brought $86. 650 net and sent the Biscuit s all time earnings soaring beyond the American turf record held by W. 8. Kilmer’s great Sun Beau. Seabis cuit’s win brought his total to $437, 730. Sun Beau’s record was $376,744. Jockey Basil James, aboard Wiehee, fired a complaint at Sea biscuit, charging Jockey Johnny (Red) Pollard, cut in on him at the sixteenth pole. The protest was not allowed, however, and the entry of Seabiseuit and Kayak II paid oft across the board at the price of $3.40, $2.80 and $2.60. Whichee paid $3.60 to show. The betting handle for the handi cap was $382,700. Seabiseuit ran the mile and a quarter in 2:01 1-5. The track re cord of 2:01 2-5 was set m the big 'cap a year ago by Kayak II. Kayak’s second brought more money to the Howard stable. Tile San Francisco sportsman won $o(i ooo for second, Whichcee $10,000 for third and Wedding Call $5,000 for fourth.
