Dr. Fager was one of the most versatile and talented racehorses of modern times. In 1968, he became the first and only horse ever to win four championship titles in a single year. He also was known for his blazing speed. Dr. Fager set a one-mile world-record time of 1:32 1/5, under 134 pounds, which lasted 29 years; and a seven-furlong track record of 1:20 1/5 at Aqueduct, under a staggering 139 pounds, which lasted 31 years. He also equaled the Aqueduct track record in the Suburban Handicap in 1:59 3/5 for one and a quarter miles under 132 pounds. Book jacket.
