Description
Champion of the American turf, victor over War Admiral by four solid lengths! Here Seabiscuit is shown just breezing across the finish line of the match race at 1 3-16 miles, War Admiral a thoroughly beaten horse. Seabiscuit set a new track record for the distance, and his winning of $15,000 placed him second among the big money winners of the turf, within shooting distance of Sun Beau's great turf earnings. Photo date: November 1, 1938.
