  • Beautiful-- Excellent quality as well-- Being pre video cassette this is remarkable quality -- Thanks

  • @redgrapeskins This video is actually a kinescope, or videotape recording of the playback of the original film camera screen used by CBS back in the day while videotape was in it's infancy. This was a common practice for replays on television back then. I can only hope that CBS will someday remaster the film stock taken from this event, and many others, and release it on DVD for the general public to enjoy. It would take a near-miracle for that to happen, I'm afraid. Thanks for the comments.

  • I cant thank you enough for posting these broadcasts, I wasnt arround back then, so its great to see them as they aired back in 1973, and great to see footage of Big Red before and after the race.

  • You're very welcome. Glad you enjoyed the videos.

    Thanks for the comments.

  • BIG RED, ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS

  • Thanks for posting! There were some good 3 yr olds in that race. Sham in most years, probably would have won the Derby (not sure about the tripe crown though). Shows how incredible of horse Secreteriat was to win a race like that.

    The funny thing, and unexpected was that Secreteriat might have been even better at one and a half miles.

    Best horse of all time!

  • Thanks so much for posting! I love watching his ears. He's so aware of the photographers. Too cute!

  • Thanks for posting, a great race.

  • best & clearest sound of all the videos- thank you for no music!!!- the call near the end is so wonderful

  • god, i wanna cry everytime i watch this horse race.

  • chic anderson was the best

  • I don't like how when the race ends the horses from behind are allowed to pass the winner, they should be stopped and if they want to jog it out then turn around.
