WHO WON

> Peter Snell: a convincing third-straight mile victory over the best the U.S. could muster; at Compton, Calif. His time was 3 min. 55 sec., and behind him trailed Jim Beatty (3 min. 55.5 sec.), Dyrol Burleson (3 min. 55.6 sec.), Jim Grelle (3 min. 56.4 sec.), Gary Weisiger (3 min. 57.1 sec.) and Bob Seaman (3 min. 59.1 sec.), the first time six runners in one race had all cracked 4 min.

> Chateaugay: the $145,450 Belmont Stakes, by a widening 21/2 lengths over Rex Ellsworth's 1-2 favorite, Candy Spots. Despite his Kentucky Derby victory, Chateaugay went off at 9-2, trailed by six lengths early in the 1 1/2-mile race. But in the stretch, Jockey Braulio Baeza sent Chateaugay charging past Candy Spots for a victory that was worth $101,700 to Owner John W. Galbreath.
