Description
Seabiscuit, the handicap turf champion of a year ago, who has been out of training, is pictured upon his arrival on November 29, 1939, at Santa Anita to point for another crack at the $100,000 handicap. He takes a sniff at jockey George Woolf, at left, while trainer Tom Smith looks on. Seabiscuit appeared to be in fine fettle and will start jogging tomorrow for his comeback. It will be some time before his first race, however.
