  • wow amazing video i love all these chapions iu have most of the bithdays og them and death days they where all amazing!

  • I love all these racehorses! they are so great! and if you need any racehorse information, talk to me, i know every thing about racehorses!

  • It's VERY upsetting to see the breakdown of these magnificent race horses...I had to stop the video.

  • 2:19 ?? wth is it doing?

  • whats the first song? any1 know?

  • Whats with the picture at 2:18

    the 2nd picture of eclipes

    even tho the first is lost in the fog

    but whats with that horse why is it like that?

  • I Love the race horse Sunday Silence!!! And I love Barbaro!!! And Ruffian! :) im adding this video to my favorites and im giving this video a 5 star! :)

  • sorry i ment before my b-day

  • u posted this vid after my b-day Secretariat,Citation,Smarty Jones,Barbaro,and Ruffian r my favorites Infinity stars!!!!!

  • omigosh, i love this video! Man O War is my favorite racehorse ever! I've been obsessed with him for like ever! lol. great video, really enjoyed it!

  • I agree! I am lucky to own a direct descendent of Man O War. He has tremendous personality and I am so proud of him!!

  • sweet. but the last horse..how was she a champion? and how is that horse up in the air? photoshoped?

  • my mare is ruffian come back i swear its her! jsut watch when we win the tribple crown look out for ahorse named chelsey baby

  • I wish I had a horse.

  • love your video

  • one Eclipse pic is Lost in The Fog. I noticed that by looking closely.

  • yeah, i noticed that to. actually, two of them are. the "head shot" and the other one.

  • Oh yeahh! My mares grandsire is Secretarit.(:

  • WHERES CHANEAN CLASSIC????????????

  • I was wondering how you get your video in high quality when you upload it.

  • the horse on 2:21...its confusing

  • hey...um...one question...how/what is that horse doing/flying????????

  • What music is this (besides "Headstrong")?

  • barbaros death was sad not cruel.

    most race horse owners would have put him down right there on the track these ppl were trying so hard to save him but his leg still wasnt fixed and his other legs got laminitis. so he was always in pain. I LUV BARBARO:)

  • gr8 vid but the 1st pix of eclipse is actually Lost In The Fog, just letting u know =]

  • I LOVE you barbaro! In memory of a great horse. You died a cruel, unnedded death. ♥RIP♥.

  • racing horses kills them bc they get injured and some ppl take the ciculation from theyre legs so they dont feel any pain and that makes it so they have a shorter life or the horse collapses or something its sad

  • Athletes get injured all the time, IN EVERY SPORT. People hurt their wrist playing ping-pong. o_o; Injury is a risk all athletes take when they perform at such a high level. But really, what you're saying makes NO SENSE. At all. Why would they purposely numb their horses legs? Don't you think that would, oh I don't know... HINDER THEM WHILE RUNNING?! Owners want their horse to WIN. Horses collapse more now a days because of bad bloodstock, they need to introduce new blood to remedy that.

  • now I'm sure not everyone abuses horses. Sometimes they do and that's cruel but a lot of people really love their horses. Like Barbaro, they looked really heartbroken. But in every sport, you can hurt something or yourself. i See a lot of graphic stuff but that's just because thing like that happen. sorry.

  • Dumbasses.. racing horses KILLS! i have rescued so many

  • Racing horses doesn't kill them, they enjoy the exhileration from the other horses and running. It's like them being free, running in a big herd, but they are racing to see who's the fastest. Now! there ARE people who abuse the sport, they sometimes overdue the horse training, and the jockey might be dumb and try to force a horse to do what it wants. But racing horses don't kill, they do it in the wild too, except they are running away from danger. But there are some bad people out there.

  • WRONG they only run because they are being whiped to.. at that finish line some break thier ankles because of how hard they were running and race horses stay in a stall for 22 days and u think that racing them till they collaps is freedom? Wrong! thats torture how would u like it if someone locked you in a dark box and then took you out and whisped you to run? Answer that

  • Secretariat ran the Belmont without being touched by the whip. Explain that.

    I think you only see things what support your claims. If a human breaks his or her ankle while sprinting, does that make sprinting a blood sport that kills ALL humans who participate?? Because thats basically what you're saying about horse racing. btw, race horses are worked out regularly, to keep them in shape for the races. In any case, the sport isn't what kills those unlucky ones, its their management.

  • And Barbaro ran his Derby stretch without Edgar Prado having to use the whip also.

  • ok why comment when u know nothing about racing

    ok racehorses get tunred out in the paddock during the day and in the stable turning the night they want them as fit as possible

    a horse is a VERY big animal if it didnt want to run IT WOULDENT

  • all these horse are so amazing and i love then all sooo much!

  • I love Seattle Slew, Whirlaway,Cigar, and Barbaro!

  • my faol, Nightmare"

    sire in barbado!!!

  • Patchen Beauty( MisSpelled i no) Shes ALBINO.

  • I feel so bad for them =[ good music in this video though.

    yay for putting my horses grandpa in there lol.

  • Love secrtariat :)

  • Ruffian and Secretariat are my favorite race horses. Barbaro and Eight Belles have a special place in my heart since they were the first horses, I've seen, to break down on the track.

  • please enter my contest

  • wow! that was AWSOME! amazing job *claps*

  • You forgot Kelso - one of the great ones, even though they didn't know it early enough to prevent his being gelded and unable to pass on his genes.

  • one of Man O' War's great-great-grandfillies is at my riding stable. She has a club foot so she was never raced, but she inherited his nasty temper and loves to gallop around when she's feeling up to it. She used to be an excellent jumper but that was before she had a tumor on one of the tendons in her hock and the owners don't want to damage the scar tissue by jumping her. So now she's reduced to crossbars :(

  • ok I guess except that like 6 pictures arnt the actual horse

  • My favorite race horses are....

    1.) Rufian

    2.)Smarty Jones

    3.)Seattle sleutte (rong spelling)

    4.) Cigar

    5.)Barbaro!

  • barbaro is the best!!!he was so cute!!<3

  • i miss Farlap :(

  • Fantastic job ! (:

  • that isn't eclipse. it is lost in the fog winning an eclipse award.

  • ruffian and barbaro are my favs.

  • Wht was the first song called?

  • Nice video!

    My fav race horses are War Admiral & Smarty Jones!

  • Secretariat has a longer and skinnier face, and Barbaro has a shorter and a much thicker face.

  • Go Secretariat!!!!!!

  • Cigar has always been my favorite =)

  • War Admiral was the son of Man O' War; who is also the uncle of Seabiscuit.

    War Admiral went head to head with Seabiscuit.

    Seabiscuit (my fav race horse of all time) won (=

    War Admiral was a bully.

  • Says who? just because the movie makes it look like War Admiral was a bully doesnt mean he actually was

  • ...No, he was. No matter what movie makes him look like anything...Research it.

  • Dont get me wrong...He was an incredable race horse and he is abseloutly stunning, ive rode one of his decendants. But, he was a bully. End of.

  • Not in relation to Seabiscuit he wasn't. But he was a handful. He was so high-strung, you could never get him to stand still. I see how you could call him a bully, but I don't know that I'd use that word, because that implied he was mean. He wasn't mean, he was just geared to go all the time. I think just "a handful" would work. Laura Hillenbrand's book "Seabiscuit" describes him really well.

  • Most influential race horse of all time ran 4 times won 4 times. "Raise a Native" by 'Native Dancer". Native Dancer lost 1 race the derby due to jockey error.

    Raise a Native sired Alydar was grandsire of Affirmed

    Raise a Native was the sire of Mr. Prospector

    and lots and lots of winners

  • He may be an influential horse but to me he is not the MOST influential

  • What's this song called

  • I love Secrateriat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • Go Barbaro, ruffina, and seattle slew! there my faves

  • you forgot Native Dancer , Norther Dancer , Citation and any others i forget you don't have

  • ashbeara has a long skinny neck doesnt she

  • YEAH!!!!!GO SECRETARIAT!!!!!

  • love it!(ruffain rocks)

  • excellent collection!

  • excellent collection!

  • I love Spectacular Bid!!! I actually ride one of his lesser known sons (he was too slow to race). love the vid, keep up the good work!!!!!!

  • What's the name of the first piece of music?

  • THE PIC AT 2:22 LOOKS LIKE HE WAS SITTING ON A CHAIR

    i LOVE HORSES I HAVE 6 OF MY OWN AND GREAT RACING MATE (BLACK THOROUGHBRED MARE CALLED eUNICE)

  • that last mare is gordus i love her

  • by the way at 2:15 thats LOST IN THE FOG you can just make it out on his saddle mat

  • i hate the music but the pics are great

  • Awesome job. I luved Ruffian

  • at the time 2:15 thats lost in the fog not eclipse stupid !!!!!

  • i LOVE cigar. beautiful video.

  • I never new Black Gold was an actual racehorse, I read the book but I never new he was an actual horse.

  • Dude Man o War was the greatest racehorse ever

  • Some say hey,he was an amazing horse-a champion.But i never knew of him until i joined up to youtube..

    I didnt mean to offend you in anyway.

  • lol yea i read his book and fell in love with him hes the one horse that nobody could beat not even secretariet no matter what people say u should read the book its called Man O' War by Walter farley

  • I will look out for it!

    Thanks!

  • i have the granddaughter of seattle slew and the great granddaughter of him as well . skeddadle seattle is the granddaughter and sonya is the great granddaughter so cute she has yet to race but she is only a yearling so we will see how she does everyone watch for the name miss erin chestnut filly with a skinny blaz that runs down her nose

  • my friend has the grandson and the granddaughter of Seattle Slew. The grandson would be racing right now but in training he injured his leg real badly and he gave the horse to her for her b-day. Also his granddaughter just doesn't like to run.

  • Excellent job, thanks!

  • Last one

    The second picture of Sunday Silence not him, I *think* it is his son, Deep Impact.

  • Hehe, two pictures of "Eclipse" was found and he won an Eclipse award :D

    I don't know if you meant Lost in the Fog, but if so that second picture wasn't him

  • AWSOME!

  • yea i agree :)

  • YAY!

    :]

  • Tsumerules - did you meaned me?

    Why, if it is so?

    Polpolker, so the song names "Headstrong"? x)

    And who's the singer?

  • lol i don't have a clue my friend has the same song on her i-pod. I don't have a clue how to spell his name tho srry.

  • What's the name of the "Headstrong"-song, it's a bit of rock, it's a man who's singing.

    Wjo and wich song?

  • /um... I'm gunna guess it's HEADSTRONG

  • Horse racing is a sadistic "sport" for horses and Jocks. Most thoroughbreds, even champs, end up on dinner tables after being SKINNED ALIVE. How could anyone support that kind of thing? All Jocks have forced eating disorders, and if they don't end up in a racing accident,they get sick from "flipping" or starving.

  • You are an idiot.

  • Um.. this was in reply to Indido156 lol :P

  • That's not cmpletely true. Some horses are killed humanely, or, in the case of ruffian, barbaro, man o war, war emblem, Alysheba, and most of the others, they weren't slaughtered.

  • Nice vid. "Eclipse" is actually named Lost in the Fog. The first picture is him, and the second is not him though. The second picture won an "Eclipse Award" just like Foggy did lol. Simple mistake. Also Patchen Beauty has had multiple foals now, look up her foals, The White Fox, Patchen Prince, and Spot of Beauty. Two of them are winners. (psst you missed an awesome horse. Lava Man!)

  • eclipse was born in 1764 and died in 1789

  • WHERE'S SWAPS?!?!! Ya know, War Admiral's great grandson or something. Desended from the big guy, Man-o-war. Won the Kentuckey Derby in 1955. One of the only horses to ever actually have a rival (Nashua). Set a record. Buried at Churchill Downs. WHY DIDN'T YOU PUT HIM IN!?!?!

  • U ROX the music the pics every think! we need more people like you in the world people, people who respect the true beauty of horses

  • My foal, born on 7/11/07 is out of Industry Standard who was Spectacular Bid's son. Industry Standard was put down on 7/25/07. He had cancer and his last foal will be to a thoroughbred mare I trained. She is due next spring!! Thanx for adding Spectacular Bid!!

  • 3rd

  • Hey, what is they name of the 3fc song playing?

  • that 2nd photo of "eclipse" is weird looking lol

  • Hey what about International Velvet?

  • You call a horse 'Eclipse,' but the horse you're referring to is Lost in the Fog. He was euthanized on September 17th, 2006. The first picture you show is indeed him, but the second is not. He was an 'Eclipse Award-Winning Sprinter.' Google Lost in the Fog or go to Finalturngallery(dot)com, there are lots of pictures of him.

  • Hát a mi Kincsemünk miért nincs itt??????

  • I'm going to assume, even though I don't understand what you're speaking, that you're wondering where Kincsem is? Kincsem was amazing, it's a shame nobody remembers her - she was much, much better than Ruffian.. 54 wins in a row vs. 11, you tell me..

  • u might think kencsems better but i think ruffian is much much much better!!!!! a lot more people know of ruffian then they do of kincsem i dont even kno of kincsem i had to look her up!!! ruffian would of won more but she broke down its not her fault she broke down!!!!!!!!!

  • You might not have known of Kincsem because she's australian, but an undefeated record of 54 wins is mighty impressive.

  • She wasn't bred in Australia...it was Hungary.

  • We slaughter hundreds of thouands of horses each year in this country -- to be eaten overseas by humans. Please contact your Representatives and ask them to co-sponsor HR 503 and ask your Senators to co-sponsor S311 -- help us ban the slaughter of horses; support the American Horse Slaughter Protection Act.

  • what is the name of the music at the beginning

  • MoonDance by NightWish :) thanx for commenting!

  • If you guys liked this video watch (In memory of our beloved rachorses)

  • u missed alot of horses like godolph arabian, funny cide, taylor fit, john henry, phar lap , curlin , tanya , rags to riches and marah's way ( last 3 are girls)

  • Sir Barton was canadian !!!!! :)

  • I went to kentucky horse park and saw man O war's grave and it was a amazing's. He is the mane reason i luv horse racing so much i even read his biography by walter farley. i also saw cigar while i was there. And i hope that rags to riches doesn't get hurt like ruffian because they are both amazing filly's. I also saw one of the horses that played seabiscut in the movie seabiscut

  • I rode Seattle Slews grandson famous amos and he is so fun!!

  • And might I mention that I met four of the most famous Thoroughbreds in the world, while down there? Cigar, Da Hoss, John Henry, and Gypsy Supreme. They wouldn't actually bring out John Henry, because he's extremely bad tempered, but I got to see the others. It was amazing.

  • no way! lol I wished I could've seen them.. I rode Man o' wars great grandson Go Lightning Man. He has an excellent smooth walk. :)

  • I miss Barbaro. I followed his training all the way up to the tragic Preakness. I have a really good picture of him during the Derby, and he has no legs on the ground, he's running so fast. He's literally flying. It's amazing.

  • I saw all those pictures at the International Museum of the Horse at Kentucky Horse Park a few weeks ago. Did you happen to go there and get those pictures, because they look strangely familiar... Just curious.

  • WOW is the picture at 2:20 real?!?!?!?!?!? plz post back! lol

    great vid tho, it went on my fav list! 5/5

  • lmao, yup that pic is as real as the horse =P

  • I dint get that last bit about the white horse Pacin Beauty.

  • whats even better than seeing racehorses in pictures... riding racehorses!!! my friend breeds racehorses and races them in local races but im 2 tall 2 be the jockey but i could have been if i was only 6 inches shorter!! grr!! this wuz a good vid by the way... i <3 horses!!

  • yep....you forgot afleet alex....he was amazing....i enjoyed it though...i have had the pleasure of working with some of the trainers of these great horses and there is nothing like the love of a race horse

    nicole

  • race horse are the best!!! my fave racehorses are barbaro,cigar,seabiscuit, secertaiait, maa o' war, raffian, citation whirlaway, showing up, rags to riches and the rest of the race horse on this video and all the others too!!!!

  • race horses rule

  • i love all race horses

  • race horses are sweet

  • <3 love horses 4 ever

  • but how can patchen beauty be a champion if she only won 2 out of 21 starts?

  • Because she is a rare white thoroughbred, and that makes her a champion :)

  • You missed Afleet Alex! Lol Great video!!

  • that was great!

  • i really liked it

  • That colorized photo of Citation with the blanket o' roses and Eddie Arcaro up is wrong. The Calumet Farms silks were devil red w/ blue armbands and hat.

  • thats sweet...at 1:34 they show cigar at arlington park

  • what would be the most widely considered top 10 horses of all time?

  • According to an Associated Press poll, Man O' War is the greatest of all time. But Secretariat is close behind along with horses such as Citation, Seattle Slew, etc...

  • I am sorry to say that the first picture that you have for Eclipse is actually "Lost In The Fog"!

  • i LUVED how there was a girl racer! and i luv barbaro!! but u shouldve put mariahs storm in there 2

  • Despite her admirable history, Mariah's Storm is nowhere near the caliber of horses such as Man O' War, Ruffian, and Secretariat.

  • so she came bak and won the breeders

  • The Breeders is one race. Ruffian, Man O' War, and Secretariat won a lot through shear will power and dominance. Mariah's Storm is an inspiring horse, but she was still not in the came class as the others.

  • ya but im confused........ did ruffian break her other while in the operating room?

  • Yes. When she woke from the anesthetic she started thrashing. The thrashing caused her to break another leg.

  • o ok thnx i thought so but i was just checking

  • barbaroluver02, I know you posted that forever ago, but Mariah's Storm did NOT come back and win the Breeders' Cup. She came in 8th or 9th.

  • how do u make these will u help me plz?

  • I've got to admit this is a good vid. But some of the horses that you put in the vid aren't famout let alone very good. I'm glad you put in the horses that where famous and champions. I was really glad that you put Barbaro in there. He could have gone all the way.

  • Hi, the horse with cancer who was a great sprinter was LOST IN THE FOG, who was an Eclipse-WINNING horse! His name needs to be corrected!

  • We love you Barbaro

  • what is the name on the song in the beginning? i LoVED it!^^, i feel sorry for Barbaro, he was a worldfamous horse! Nice video by the way!

  • Nice video...Patchen...rare white thoroughbred???

  • wow that was amasing

    but was barbaro like put to sleep

    ???

  • Sadley Barbaro was put to sleep. this video was made before he went to sleep.

  • :( poor barbaro were did you get the clips of him ???

  • oh yea and what was the song in the middle of the video i loved it

  • The clips of Barbaro were from google search, or photobucket. The song in the middle is called Headstrong. I forgot what the band was called though...

  • oh ok

    love the video by the way :)
