Alsab Set for Chicago Handicap at Washington Park
Alsab, the 1943 debutant delayed by track conditions, was nominated to run in the $10,000 added Chicago Handicap at Washington Park next Saturday. The colt, owned by Mrs. Albert Sabath of Chicago, has been sidelined seven months with a leg ailment but trainer says he has recovered and is ready to race. The six furong spring event may not suit Alsab’s best distance, as he favors a mile and up.
