Sixth Annual Santa Anita Handicap
March 2, 1940
Seabiscuit was injured and out of commission for most of the 1939 racing season. Coming into the sixth annual Santa Anita Handicap, his prospects for a comeback were slim. Seabiscuit, guided again by the weathered Red Pollard, had raced only three times in the weeks before, winning at San Antonio two weeks prior to the big handicap day. Seabiscuit could set the all-time money winning record if he could chalk up a win at the race that had eluded him twice before.
