In PimIico Special
BY DONALD SANDERS,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


BALTIMORE, Oct. 26.-The sixth
running of the famed Pimlico spe-
cial two days hence shaped up today
as either q second match race be-
tween Whirlaway and Alsab or sim
ply $4,000 stroll for the long
tailed Calumet Comet.
Although eight thoroughbreds won
races which would qualify them to
run in the event, Pimlico officials
said their owners apparently had
been frightened by the weight-for-
age conditions.
Thus, every 4-year r-old or up must
carry 1876 pounds and every 3-year-
old 120 pounds over the 3-16-mile
course.
SABBATH Will Decide Today.
AL SABBATH. whose wife owns Alsab,
told track officials he would decide
today whether he would start the
3-year-old which holds two victories
out Of the three races against
Whirlaway.
He said he would make his deci-
sion after examining the weights as
signed for the running Of the $25,-
000-added Westchester handicap at
Empire City next Saturday. A VIC
tory IN this race would make Alsab
the top money winning horse of the
year. A win over Whirly in the
Special still would leave him shy of
the mark.
The deadline for entries In the
| Special Is 10:30 o'clock tomorrow
morning.
Trainer Ben Jones said Whirla-
way was in top shape after his
$14,350 victory in the Washington
handicap at Laurel Park Saturday
and that the money winning champ
could be regarded as sure Special
starter.
Would Be Lucrative Stroll.
If Whirly should be the lone en-
try, he could do more lucrative bit
of walking than any horse in Ameri-
can turf history. BY circling the
oval, he could collect the $4,000
purse and earn for his owner, War
rem Wright, the Maryland Jockey
Club Gold Cup valued at S2.750.
Trainer Ben would collect $500 in
cash and piece of plate worth sew
eral hundred.
Whether or not Alsab starts
against Whirly in duplicate of
their Narragansett match race ap-
parently meant a difference of thou
sands Of dollars to the Army Emer-
gency Relief fund The receipts Of
the Special day are pledged to the
fund and a Whirly- -Alsab reneWa
