@burningrosegirl98 Probably because the breed has been mismanaged where there has been an emphasis of breeding speed to speed. Back in those days, they would usually breed a fast sire line to a stamina mare line. That is exactly what gave us Secretariat, great speed from the sire, Bold Ruler an...

Beautiful

What a babe!

Disgraceful

@thecropduster1 I wonder why you have an axe to grind against Billy Howell. Ther have been accidents, BUT, anyone in aviation knows that ag aviation is inherently dangerous. Ag Flight has been in business for a long time. I've been through the training and it is as safe as you could ask for. ...

@snowbeach1981 That photo is one of the most iconic in American sport.

@JayAr709 Look Jay, I too am a huge Affirmed fand and was brokenhearted when he lost to Slew. Maybe Affirmed could have beaten him under certain conditions ( his best chance would have been at a mile and a half). If he ever beat him with a rabbit as they attempted in the JCGC there would be ver...

@sl7293 You have posted alot and each post subtracts integrity from your argument. The tracks in southern California are significantly faster than they are on the east coast. Slew was sick in this race, and nearly died as a result of the illness. Therefore, the race is a throwout for Slew. To...

@all66books I loved Aloma's Ruler too, helluva horse

@GBeret83 Wrong. Affirmed won the triple crown over a better horse than Bid ever faced in the classics, Alydar. Affirmed beat Bid at weight for age head to head with no excuse for Bid. Moreover, Bid ducked Winter's Tale at 4. Bid was great, Affirmed was better.

Awsi as a fan of Secretariat I feel the same way about his loss to Prove Out in the Woodward. Another thing you have to consider in Slew's loss here is the outside post. Cruguet hits Slew as soon as he comes out of the gate. That, the weight spread, and a really good Dr. Patches were enough to...

Just a bad ride by Dellahousaye, period. Bad time to change riders just before the Derby. Bad trainer that didn't know what he was doing.

This was a choke job by Stewart Elliott. He move way too soon after a slow beginning. All he had to do was to let those pressing the pace to go on and then move on him at the top of the stretch.

Very Poor ride and handling of Animal Kingdom.

Hard to tell who was better, both very good, neither great

Hard to imagine that this horse would not have completed the triple. One of the best since bid.

Affirmed was exhausted after his brutal 3yo campaign and this race does not reflect the differnce between the two horses. Slew's style was always going to be a problem for Affirmed, just too much speed for too long. Too bad Slew didn't race for one more year. Imagine that 1979 JCGC with Slew i...
