@ruthdahlia I admire all the great horses. Secretariat is not the only one. I will make that clear. But no horse ever before or since did what he done during his 3 yr. old campaign young or old that still holds true to this day. Thats the Derby & Belmont.

@renduke Whether she could handle Ruffian is only speculation but still believe it would be some hell of a race. Defining a horse by their record alone is not entirely the true measure of a horse. If that was so Rocky Maciano 49-0 and the Miami Dolphins 14-0 in 1972 would be considered the measur...
