This is the Secretariat Goodbye tribute that was originally broadcasted in 1989 during the Eclipse awards. A version was placed on the Secretariat VHS that Penny sells, but the alternate version of Richard Marx's "Right Here Waiting for You" just doesn't do it for me. They also edited some scenes in the collage and I find this one works better.

If anyone has a better copy, I'd love to have it. Mine was watched to death as a kid so it got kind of worn out..

  • 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

  • Just brilliant... thanks very much for the video on the greatest horse in my lifetime

  • @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.

  • @LIGHTNINGB0BBY Yep. Having the match race I always dreamed of seeing. :)

  • 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. 

  • this made me cry.....

  • the only horse that makes me cry because of all he was and still means to so many.
