The race is the oldest steeplechase in America, having been inaugurated more than 250 years ago. The trophy is of solid gold and beside its great historic value is a thing of beauty and high intrinsic worth. Last year the winner was Sea Sol dier, the only American bred horse to run in the Grand National at Ain tree Liverpool, England. He was ono of the nine mounts to finish the course, celebrated for its difficulty. Sea Soldier performed in the fine style throughout. In its account of the race, the As sociated Press s>poke as follows of Sea Soldier: "Today's classic favored horses that weae racers as well as jumpers. This was particularly apfparemt with Sea Soldier, the only American-bred horse in the race. He fenced fault leasly all of the way, finishing in per fect stride, but did not have the speed to keep pace with the leaders." Hia finesse as a jumper under difficulies was also broadcast through out the world over the Associated Press wire?, in the account of the general mixup at the second fence after Becher's Brook, as follows: "Sea Soldier was saved only by Wilson' dextrous handling and by taking the big jump almost from a standing position." This gives an indication of the type of horse that runs in the Carolina cup. Then wealthy Cltfcago sports men backed him for the Grand Na tional. The horse that came second in the Kentucky Grasslands steeplechase, kwhich course is modeled after the Aii4r?e cou*r?, &pd considered the apA events, which generallyconsiaJt of two other races, is free to all spectators, no admission being charged,, with pro grams furnished free. Many horse lovers from Aiken, Pinehurst, Augusta and likewise from all over the East are expected to be on hand, as was the case last year when leading racing writers from the great American dailies were present to cover the event for their papers. ? ?
