Biggest Upset

Founders victory was consid-
cred the most astounding upset of
the current turf season. 1t was
his third victory since arriving in
this country, and his most inn
portant.
His owner, who operates the
pretentious Valdina breeding
farms in Texas, now has pocketed
a total of S3S,462 as a result of
the three successes.
Founders is by Colorado Kid
Short Run and was one of several
refugees purchased by Woodward
in Ireland. The colt started five
times in Ireland and won each
event.
His first start in this country
was at Suffolk Downs. where he
went six furlongs TO win.
His most noteworthy perform
ance aside from todays triumph
was a place behind Whirlaway in
the $4,000 Massachusetts Handi-
cap, the race that set Whlrlaway's S
earning record.
With all due respect TO Warren
Wright's great horse, it must be
said that he carried 80 pounds,
while Founders toted only 103
over the sloppy mile and one
quarter.

FiUe in Field

Four afternoon scratches cut
the field to five Those withdrawn
were No Competition, Reading III,

Backers of Founders were re-
turned S1240 for each 81 bet,
while Whirlaways place money
gave up S2.40 for 50. There were
no show mutuels. Time of the race
was 1:04.
Founders shot to the front at
the break and Whirlaway re-
mained a length or so behind into
the far turn. Jockey Freddie
Smith, up on Founders held his
position and began pressing as
Eddie Arcaro up on Whirlaway
made his move as they rounded
the turn. But Arcaro went a bit
wide and they were on even terms,
or almost, as they entered the
stretch.
r was there that the big red
horse failed.
Founders looked him in the eye
and then moved away.
Whirlaway was a beaten horse
midway down the home lane.
Whirlaway crossed the finish
line eight lengths ahead of Stare
tor, who was followed by Pump
gun and Sirocco, both of whom
wallowed far behind.
