The DISCOVERY Handicap honors Alfred G. Vanderbilt’s great weight carrier of the 1930s, Discovery, who won under as many as 139 pounds. Among his stakes victories were the Arlington, Brooklyn, and Whitney handicaps. He was named champion handicap horse for 1936. The Discovery Handicap was run at Belmont Park 1945-58, 1960-61, 1968-69, and 1970; otherwise run at Aqueduct. In 1966, Ring Twice finished first, but was disqualified. Run in two divisions in 1974.
