> Mrs. Albert Sabath’s Alsab: a $25,000 match race, winner-take-all; by a nose, over Warren Wright’s Whirlaway; after a pulldevil, pull-baker stretch drive that ended in a photo finish; at New England’s Narragansett Park. Three-year-old Alsab carried 119 lb.; four-year-old Whirlaway, 126. The distance: a mile and three-sixteenths.
