He was unique in many regards, not only a champion of the highest order, he inspired the nation in his day. I recall many discussions with total strangers back then about him, and what he meant to each. It was always positive, his persona captured hearts and minds alike, even through TV. The amazing, vivid memories of him have out-lasted so many other recollections of my life.
While debate will go on as to who the best ever horse was and why I truly believe that there was never a horse that lived or one that will come in the future that would have been able to beat Secretariat on this day. Arguably the single greatest individual sports performance of the 20th century!

Too bad he didn't have anyone to push him at the end. No telling how fast he would have run that.
