Sport: Just Hay

In the past three years a chestnut colt with a long blond tail has earned twice as much money as the President of the U.S. Last week, in winning the $50,000 Massachusetts Handicap at Suffolk Downs, Warren Wright’s Whirlaway upped his lifetime earnings to $454,336 and eclipsed Charles Howard’s Seabiscuit as the biggest money winner in the history of horse racing. Owner Wright turns 10% of Whirlaway’s earnings into war bonds.
