I., Sept. 19 U.B Whlrlaway, one of the greatest stretch runners in turf history, didn't have quite enough in the run for home today and the top money winner of all time lost a $25,000 special match race to Alsab, king of racing t bargain basement. The unpredictable three-year-old which Al Sabath of Chicago purchased for $700 at a Saratoga yearling sale, led almost all the way to win a nose decision on a photo finish which kept an tstimated crowd of 85.000 at Narragansett park on edge for three minutes. The race was so close that the photo had to be studied 'onger than usual by the Judges before they gave the nod to the leading money winner among he three-year-olds. Under a perfect ride by Car roll Blerman. Alsab went out in front at the start of the mile and three-sixteenths dream race and was never worse than even in the greatest match turf con test since Seabiscuit defeated War Admiral at Pimlico in 1938 George Woolf, who rode the Biscuit that day, was up on Whirlaway and as usual he gave the long-taKed chestnut his head at the top of the stretch but 'he h- '"cap champion was not quite good enough. Turning for home, he had Whlrly on the outside, a length behind Alsab. Whlrly was com ing up and might have won In mother stride. For a time it lopeared the race would be derlared no contest for Narra ansett park officials had an nounced that would be done if It ended in a dead heat. But the Judges decided there was margin enough to declare Alsab the winner. It couldn't have been closer. As a match it couldn't have been better, but as a wagering vonofltion It was a flop. Only $35 142 was bet on the race with the Army and Navy Relief Funds netting less than S3.00.0. The track previously had con tributed $150,000 to the agen cies, however. Fights Last Night New York.
