Spur Breaks All Records Over Belmont Track
Spur, the bay colt of Spur, Ping James and Auntie Mum, broke the Belmont track record for the Withers by going two seconds faster than the previous mark set in 1908. Jockey Loftus rode Spur to a thrilling win amid rough riding and a crash that injured Friar Rock’s rider. Foxhall P. Keene’s Church T. and other rivals trailed as Spur led a fast field to victory, earning $3,600 for his owner. The Belmont feature was followed by a dramatic Douglas ton Steeplechase with Mo capturing the top prize in a neck-and-neck finish ahead of Dixon Park and Archdale.
