It was Arcaro's sixth victory in the Belmont, an all-time record in a race ivhose 100th running is at neiv Belmont Park this year. seven colts first past the wire in the race celebrating its centennial this vear at new Bel- mont Park. The last time the Belair silks fluttered on a winning jockey's back at old Belmont Park was in 1955. when Arcaro breezed the whim- sically fascinating Nashua to a nine-length victory. Belair was then being operated by William Woodward Jr., son of the founder of the great racing dynasty. Later that year, Nas- hua, a droll colt called "Mickey" by his hand- lers, and distinguished for his playfulness and eye-rolling histrionics when he wasn't running, was sold to a syndicate headed by Leslie Combs II for $L251.200. When the first Belmont Park was torn down in 1963, the Belmont Stakes, with other rac- ing fixtures at the beautiful track, was shifted to Aqueduct, where it was run from 1963 through 1967. And last year, at the Big A, the Belair colors again were seen in front in the Belmont Stakes. They were worn by Willie Shoemaker, who was aboard Damascus. Mrs. Edith W. Ban- croft's sensational three-year-old, which won the $125, 000-added classic handily. Among those he beat in the Belmont was Proud Clar- ion, the colt which had upset him in the Ken- tucky Derby and kept him from winning the Triple Crown. Mrs. Bancroft is the daughter of the elder William Woodward and thus in- herited the family's racing colors. Damascus, trained by Frank Whiteley Jr., went on to prove that he was a Belmont 72.
