Seabiscuit vs. War Admiral - 1938 Match Race (Pimlico Special)

OMG i'd love to do that

Hooray for seabiscuit!!! R.I.P

you can't even tell there are 2 horses @ 0:58!

wow i just read the seabiscuit book and it was AMAZING.this is exactly as i pictured it!!!poor war admiral,they say hi sheart was crushed after this.they both did great

FANtastic, thanks. I knew the Twister won it going in long before that chick's flick was produced, but had never seen it. Only matchrace I ever saw firsthand was stinking a farce, as Chris Evert whomped Miss Musket, maybe 1975, not even close. Now I have to see of Ruffian's final race is on this site. A sad event in the final analysis.

oh my god... this is amazing. oh my gosh. ohhh myyyy gossshhhh. i knew who won and all but man... there were parts in there where i was like WOW. holy cow. thats amazing

you dont get races like this anymore.

yea we had Zenyatta and Rachel Alexandra. but its been a long time since we got to see a champions like Man O War and Ruffian

War Admiral had his dad's physique but Seabiscuit seemed more aggressive toward the end. I wonder if they knew or even just a feeling they were related. we need to see Zenyatta vs. Rachel Alexandra. it would be so hyped up. a filly version of the same race to determine horse of the year.

War Admiral was Seabiscuit's half-uncle, sharing Man O War as father/grandfather.

Cool.

wow what an awesome race. just love the start how they jump into a gallop! thanks for posting.
