I went to see Secretariat at Claiborne Farm in the summer of 1989. He was 19 but he still looked magnificent. He posed for pictures for me and I still have them on my living room wall today. He was a very special animal. Love you Big Red..... Mountainbliss1

@quiettman11 you really were lucky to have that experience with Secretariat. I at least wld like to go to Kentucky to visit his resting place at Claiborne and also visit Sham, at Walmac Farm I think.

"He wasn't a horse, he was Secretariat."

I read that a horse's heart weighs an average of 8.5 pounds, and this magnificent creature's weighed 22. What a horse. I hope he's running through the clouds. Thanks for this.

Just saw the movie this weekend by chance with my wife, she is a fan & loves horses in general. I heard of secretariat of course by way of the news etc.., but didn't watch horse races. After seeing the movie & listening to my wifes accounts all i can say is WOW ! Big red was a bad motha' & one of a kind. I enjoy watching his classic racing clips . R I P buddy !

@americangirl161 He was euthanized after suffering laminitis, but he was buried whole (most racehorses only have the head, heart, and hooves buried).

Rest in Peace Big Red.
