SYRACUSE WAWASEE JOURNAL

[MnWS| IIV w S M F SARATOGA, N. Y.—Ben Jones. Warren Wright’s able trainer for the Calumet stable, has directed the racing destinies of many thoroughbreds. But from the long parade trainer Jones has never known a horse that intrigued him half as much as Whirlaway. It isn’t so much that Whirlaway has picked up more than his share

of important stakes —including the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont. These have paid for a lot of hay. The true answer is that Whirlaway is a strange, odd sort of an animal that no one can ever quite figure out. The horse that has

won as many major stakes as Whirlaway has won should never have been beaten as many times as the Wright Flyer has taken the count. That’s what makes him interesting to figure out.. “He’s a funny horse,” Ben Jones tells you. “He is fast and strong and game—but he also wants to have his own way. You can never quite figure him out. He can be as quiet and relaxed as a plow horse, or he can be as nervous as a caged panther. “You may remember before the Derby that I told you at times I thought' Whirlaway was half-witted. Either he was or I was. I was u OlfflWp WHIRLAWAY Whirlaway (left) enjoys a banquet of grass as Trainer Ben Jones on the white pony looks'pn. On Whirly’s back is Pinky Brown, exercise boy. wrong about Whirlaway, anyway. He just happens to have a mind and a personality of his own.” The Nerve Wrecker “I don’t believe many people know the care and the worry that Ben Jones has used up on Whirlaway,” John Partridge says. J. Partridge is another well-known owner and trainer who is one of Ben’s best pals. “Many a time Ben has gone to the barn after midnight just to see how Whirlaway was getting along—whether he was sleeping or whether he was restless. Ben always knew he had a great horse—but also a strange horse that had to be han died differently from ether horses Just think of all that happened up to the Derby. In one: race Whirl away would look like a world beater. In his next race he wouldn’t run or something would happen to him. Maybe he’d bear out—or suddenly. decide he was through running for that day. But Ben knew what Whirlaway..had. 1 don’t believe I've ever seen anyone use as much patience as Ben Jones has given this horse. “Many things also happen to Whirlaway. Arcaro was set to ride him in the Arlington Classic. Arcaro is set down, the one rider who can handle all his whims. Then Whirlaway takes a flying clod in the eye and that never helped any horse win a race. It might have been he wouldn’t have beaten Attention under any conditions. But losing Arcaro and taking that wallop in the eye certainly didn’t help.” Both Warren Wright and Ben Jones hope to see Whirlaway rack up the all-time winning mark. “He is a horse that likes to keep racing,” Ben Jones says. “Whirlaway isn’t a big horse but he has a lot of stamina. He could run two miles, if he had to. He never wants to be hurried from the start. He likes to take his time—and then make his move. When he does 1 don’t have to tell anybody how fast he can travel. He should be good for quite a while if something unexpected doesn’t happen to him Horses change from two-year-olds to' tfiree-year-olds. Later on they can get much better, or show little. Man o’ War cleaned up as a two-year-old and a three-year-old. Then he was retired. Seabiscuit wasn’t much until he reached or passed the four-year-old spot. “My guess is that Whirlaway will be even better as an older horse. He has been a better three-year-old than he was as a two-year-old. He may be a funny horse at times—but he still hak the two main things a big winner needs —that’s speed and stamina.”
