...lost only one race (to Upset) in his career; Sab has already lost seven. But Big Red's whole career consisted of only 21 races, while Sab, in one year of racing, started 22 times, ran on eleven different tracks in seven different States. Moreover, he has run farther and faster than Man o' War did as a two-year-old. His 1:16 for 6½ furlongs is only one-fifth of a second over the world's record set by four-year-old Snark in 1937; his 1:35 2/5 for a mile...

His young red-haired wife, Jane (Dahlman), changed to tight-fitting blue cowboy dungarees, jodhpur boots, a tan wool jacket.

Without a care or worry the Ickes settled down to vacation...
Then there was Perpetual, owned and driven by foxy Doc Parshall, the Earl Sande of the sulky circuit. Perpetual, no great shakes as a two-year-old, had won three big stake races this summer (the Matron, the National and the Historic). But Doc's colt had recently come down with a fever, was seen stepping around the track wearing a jowl strap only an hour before the Big Race...
