OLD "CROW BAIT" HORSE
BRINGS IN RICH PURSES
(By Charles Dunkley)
(Aasoclated Press Sports writer)
CHICAGO, July fl. .(AP) Two
years ago D. A. Woods, a wholesale
grocer from Benton, a town of 7,000
In the coal mining region of south
ern Illinois, purchased Indian Run
ner, a one-time broken down, crip
pled horse, for $3,000, Yesterday In
dian Runner won the Stars and
Stripes handicap and 910,700 at Ar
lington Park for the second consecu
tive year, bringing his total winnings
to date to $45,000 and ranking him
among the top three of the American
handicap stars In performance.
The story behind this game five
year old son of Dls Dono II Indian
Maiden, with a heart as bin as a
house, reads like a tale from the
Arabian NJghta.
Indian Runner was bred by Hal
Price Headley, Lexington, Ky., turf
man who had his heart set on win
ning the Kentucky derby of 1032, The
colt failed to stand up under the
rigors of training and went to pieces,
It seemed that Indian Runner would
be nothing more than an ordinary
plater at best, bo Headley dropped
him Into a cheap claiming race at
Arlington Park that same year.
Owner Woods liked the looks of
Indian Runner despite his previous
condition, and bought him. He turn
ed him out for a month, nursed him
along, then brought him back to the ,
races with the result that he broke
the track record at Lincoln Fields In
his first start. Since then he has
had a monopoly In winning the
handicap stakes in the west.
