Winning Race
Albany, Cal., June 3 (U.R)
Calumet Farm's Citation broke
two world's records today in the
$20,000 Golden Gate mile, travel
ing the eight furlongs in an
amazing 1:33 35 and becoming
the greatest money-winning thor
oughbred of all time.
Carrying 128 pounds, Citation
needed all the speed at his com
mand in winning by a neck over
the speedy, surprising Bolero.
On Trust, veteran west coast
campaigner, was third in a field
of six.
Citation's time clipped two
fifths of a second off the previ
ous world's mark for the mile,
set by his stablemate, Coaltown,
at Washington park last August.
The victory was worth $14,
550. boosting Citation's earnings
to $924,830. The old record of
$918,485 was held by Mrs. Ethel
Jacob's Stymie, now retired.
Stymie needed 131 races to reach
his mark but Citation's race to
day was only his 36th.
Citation had finished second
Jin each of his last five starts,
and there was some talk that
the triple crown champion of
1948 was "over the hill." But the
husky, five-year-old son of Bull
Lea looked his old self today.
