In his final race before retirement, seven-year-old Seabiscuit took one last stab at the contest that had twice eluded him, the Santa Anita Handicap, on March 2, 1940. Clocking the fastest mile-and-a-quarter in the track's history, Seabiscuit won the race and its $121,000 prize. The thoroughbred hadn't always been a champion, but trainer Tom Smith saw his potential as a young horse and turned him into a winner. | American Experience | PBS
