He was a bobby dazzler; a one off; a pin up; a superstar; a superfreak; a crazy cool horse.

I was a 10 year old kid in 1973. I watched Secretariat run the greatest horse race I had ever seen. He just plain embarrassed the field and when he could have relaxed and still won the race, he was still accelerating. Grown men were crying but they had witnessed something that may never be seen again. RIP Big Red

Everybody wanted him and was was never “clumsy”. He did have a mind of his own.

Secretariats 31 lengths beating Shem at the Belmont still makes my eyes water as I near my 70th Birthday on August 21, 2026. There will never be another Secretariat.❤
