Did You Know?

The big story out this year is the Hollywood movie on SeaBiscuit, the famous undersized horse with a huge heart. Let's take a look at Seabiscuit's timeline.
May 23, 1934: Seabiscuit is born. He is the descendant of the great Thoroughbred Man o' War, through his son Hard Tack.
June 11, 1934: Two-year-old Seabiscuit loses his seventeenth consecutive race. Though he is racing in poor company, he has yet to win a single race.
June 29: Tom Smith and Seabiscuit meet at Suffolk Downs outside Boston, Massachusetts. They look at each other and nod. Recognizing something special about the horse, Smith leans over the rail and whispers to Seabiscuit, "I'll see you again."
August 3: Charles and Marcela Howard see Seabiscuit win a race at Saratoga. Tom Smith looks the horse over and tells Howard to buy Seabiscuit.
August 16: Red Pollard, traveling around looking for work as a jockey, walks into the Detroit Race Track, where he meets Tom Smith and Seabiscuit. Smith sees that Pollard and Seabiscuit are compatible.
September 7: Seabiscuit achieves his first big win in the Governor's Handicap, winning over half his purchase price. It is the fiftieth race of his career, and the first in which he displays a new-found inclination for racing.

From here on Seabiscuit wins a number of impressive races, including eventually taking on the 1937 Triple Crown Winner War Admiral and beats him by 4 lengths. Seabiscuit is finally retired on April 10, 1940 after winning on his third try at Santa Anita and he clocks the fastest mile-and-a quarter in Santa Anita's history, the second fastest ever run in America. The most people ever to attend an American horse race -- 75,000 -- watch as Pollard leads Seabiscuit from behind to victory.
