		<description><![CDATA[Racing fans in 1937 witnessed a Kentucky Derby, Preakness, and Belmont Stakes sweep. War Admiral, the son of Man o&#8217; War, became the fourth winner of the elusive series, at a time when the Triple Crown still needed to be explained to racing fans (see below). It was also a time when the idea of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our friend Becky Ryder, from the Daily Racing Form Online Archive, wrote in a comment on last week&#8217;s article about the recent digitization of the Racing Form&#8217;s coverage of the Seabiscuit-War Admiral match race. Of course, this is a well known story with a best selling book and a big budget film but, nobody tells [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The recent announcement that the Rachel Alexandra-Zenyatta race was back on at Oaklawn Park got me thinking about another highly anticipated but difficult to arrange match-up.  No horse race resonates more in popular culture than the Seabiscuit-War Admiral match of 1938.  Of course, a best selling book followed by a Hollywood film will do that. The Rachel-Zenyatta [...]]]></description>

One of his most prized programs is from War Admiral&#8217;s maiden race which took place at Havre de Grace in north east Maryland. He kindly sent [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When thinking about the history of the Pimlico Special most would think of the 1938 match race between War Admiral and Seabiscuit. However, the first Pimlico Special was held a year before as part of a &#8216;stake-a-day&#8217; fall meeting organized by Alfred G. Vanderbilt, Pimlico&#8217;s 25-year-old majority stockholder and president. Racing historian Tim Capps wrote [...]]]></description>
