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.

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.
