War Admiral Poised for Belmont Sweep in 1937
War Admiral, after eight brisk days in May, has banked over $100,000 and shown unmatched speed. He led from start to finish in all three major pre Belmont races, with only Heel O’Lly and Jewel Dornett briefly challenging him. Belmont at a mile and a half should suit his stamina, as Pompoon cannot threaten the final half mile. The champion remains sound and ready to extend his remarkable run.
