Koyok Should Be Good
For Iona Stretch

Howard has had his heart set on
Eeabiscuit setting the all-time
money mark. The death of Sor-
teado was hard blow to him and
yet if >Sorteado hadn't been hurt
there Still was the chance he might
have beaten Seabiscuit in the last
Hundred Grand affair.
1t is difficult to figure just how
much cash Seabiscuit and Kayak
may pile up before they both finish
their racing careers.
If Seabiscuit is retired, Kayak, a
sound horse. might easily win an
other 100000 handicap, and pick
up more than a few healthy purses
on the side.
The feature race today would be
Seabiscuit and Challedon. This
would more than equal the battle
between Seabiscuit and War Ad-
miral.
The Biscuit now is the biggest
single card the track has known
since Man O. War. We think he will
be an even bigger card, due to the
human touch his story carries. He
could break an attendance record at
any track in the country.
You have to be The Horse when
you've passed the 100000 mark.

seobiscuit, Koyok Come
To Life Suddenly

Seabiscuit was given another
chance, and so was Kayak. The
Biscuit was sixth as Kayak finished
eighth. Both had been heavily sup
ported. The luck now was all in
digo.
Apparently Seabiscuit had found
his long layoff at the age of more
than he could handle, as tough as
he was. And Kayak was getting
worse. For almost year fate had
poured its poison into Howard'S S
glass.
And then the next turn came.

biscuit not only won. but tied the

Almost everything can happen in
the racing game. But it isn't often
