There will never be another horse like Secretariat,he holds the track records of all three triple crown races and his record at the Belmont may very well stand forever!

@RcDellena Sham and Secretariat had the same maternal grandsire, the wonderful Princequillo, brought over to U.S. fm Ireland in 1940 by ship thru rough seas infested with German U-boats. You shld all google Princequillo and select reines de course

@kwgrid while surging and then pulling up at end of the Belmont Stakes, he BROKE the record for 1 5/8 mi set by Swaps. Nack points that out also in the biography. I RECOMMENDTHAT ALL YOU YOUNGSTERS GETTING TO KNOW THIS HORSE READ Bill Nack's biography of Secretariat, The Making of a Champion. The description of this race is 8, yes 8 ! pages long, anticipating, tension filled, quoting a CBS executive in the crowd turning to a colleague and yelling... "he's gonna win BIG, Herb !"

I wonder how it felt for Ron Turcotte...the moment he let the reins go and felt that big engine kick in and REALLY take off. I envy him for that; it must have been the sensation of a lifetime.
