RIP Charles Schick; trainer of Seabiscuit

The legend of Seabiscuit is still vivid. Unfortunately with the death of Charles Schick the legend is truly becoming a legend. Aged 98, Schick died on February 11. Charles got his fame training both Seabiscuit and War Admiral. “Seabiscuit looked like a mustang coming out of the West,” he said in a television interview following the publication of Laura Hillenbrand’s 2001 bestseller, Seabiscuit: An American Legend. “I had to keep after him all the time,” he said. Charles Franck Schick (August 29, 1916 – February 11, 2015) leaves three daughters, six grandchildren; and 10 great-grandchildren.
