Jacobs Needs Only Two Winners to Reach Goal

CORAL GABLES Fin Dec 30 VFi Races today and tomorrow will tell whether a young horse trainer from Manhattan's lower east side will fulfill his promise to send out 180 winners in 136. Hirsch Jacobs, 32, has quietly boasted he would saddle 190 winners last May, a goal far above the record of 147 set 14 years ago by Cowboy Irvin. He has 178 on his string after Tropical Park and recent races, and he leads America's trainers for four years. Action, a key horse, was bought for $1000 last spring and has proven successful. Jacobs does not bet on horses, saying betting wastes time while he stays busy with training and administration.
