Still holds all three Triple Crown track records 50 years later. The 1973 Belmont is far and away THE greatest athletic performance ever. A comparison to the last two Triple Crown Winners has Secretariat beating Justify by 16 lengths and American Pharaoh by 13 lengths. His dominance is unprecedented.
Never knew a horse Sergeant Reckless was bought for $250 by the Marine Corps and carried ammo during the Korean War and carried wounded soldiers for treatment with being wounded herself. She earned 2 Purple Hearts and many other awards. God bless the animals. Just wanted to share this. I watch the movie Secretariat and cry. 💗🌷
Secretariat was one of Gods creations to show us how AWESOME GOD IS!!! There is none liken to Him and How Big His Heart is!!!!!! Secretariat ran for our God to show us God has no limitations on what we can do with faith in Him!!!!!!
I remember watching this movie in theaters. I was in 7th grade at the time. Years later, I learned that my mother grew up watching Seattle Slew, the great-grandson of Secretariat’s father, Bold Ruler.
Secretariat's record still holds after 50 years 💗 and praying it stays. I couldn't have sold him as she did because Secretariat saved her dad's horse farm. Big Red machine 🌷💗
@@sergeantmasson3669 Was going by the movie TRUE Riva was also sold too or not? He died from a heart attack in Paris, Ky. That's a nice place. Bourbon County.
He wasn’t really sold - they needed money to keep farm afloat without selling him outright so they syndicated him for 6 million dollars. I wish they had let him run as a 4 year old although I understand the possible dangers of that. Who knows what we might have seen from this wonder horse though.
@@SWfordecencyingovt FALSE. Riva Ridge was syndicated for $5.12 million which saved the Chenery farm. Secretariat $ 6.16 million paid off the inheritance taxes after Chris Chenery died. Penny inherited the horses. Her brother inherited the horse farm pnly but not the house.
He is by far the most amazing equine athlete we have ever had. They talk about Manowar, who was a great horse, but he never ran again the older boys except for Sir Bartlett, who by that point had 1 foot in the grave. His wings were just hidden. Secretariat Pegasus Meadow is his full name. At the end of the Belmont. If his jockey hadn’t pulled him up, he was about to takeoff, he was still going. He wasn’t stopping he was still going he was going to fly. I know I’m crazy but I don’t think there’s any horse in the world that who can do what Secretariat did. And that doesn’t mean winning every race because it matters who you’re running against. you’re with God now secretariat and I’m sure you’re his right hand. I miss you You’re a joyful temperament and your fun personality. I got to see you in 72 at Garden State and in 73 at the Belmont and they were the best days of my life.
This video of Secretariat winning those races, is from the movie of Secretariat, not the real race itself. I can always tell the difference between the horse they used to play Secretariat, and the real Secretariat, it's just too obvious!
This is from the awful Disney movie they made about him. I wish someone else would make another movie about Secretariat….one that’s much more accurate.
Ah. It's clips from the movie. I knew it wasn't actual footage when "Secretariat" was a bay when he was foaled...chestnuts are always born chestnut. They don't change color...
I had a filly, born as a red chestnut. She turned liver chestnut at 6 months and then red roan at 3 yrs. So, YES, sometimes they DO turn colors. I do not know if a different color can turn into a red chestnut, but they can definitely change into a different color FROM being a red chestnut.
He was a stunning thoroughbred for sure. But overrated big time. Real Champions like Dr. Fager or Spectacular Bid were just faster. Mathematics don't lie.
I only saw Big Red on tv. He got me interested in Thorough Bred racing. Closest closer I ever saw was Red's son , Risen Star. Won the Belmont by 13 lengths after being beaten by Sunday Silence in the Derby and Preakness. Beautiful horse.
The world's greatest athlete. Ever.
Bo sez No. 😁

I watched that race in 73 , I bet on him because I love red horses, the Greatest horse of all time 😊

@marksobolewski6462 So true! 🙏 I truly don't know how anyone can watch Secretariat race and NOT marvel at God's power and annointing.
Amen to that .
Sec's personal groom Eddie Sweat was there when the colt was born. His iconic words were "Now there's a whopper."
He had no idea how prophetic his words were.
Best athlete of the decade. Loved by everyone. RIP Secretariat...this Canadian loved you. 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸
Never get tired of watching the greatest horse ever!
What a gorgeous little colt. Even though it’s a movie. Still gorgeous.
The little Colt was the real Secretariat, not the movie

Mary Lawson, FALSE. Riva Ridge did that.

@@SWfordecencyingovt True. Hate that Secretariat had to be put down but he was buried whole.
I started to watch choked up and miss him so much

Most beautiful horse ever. What a spirit
And he would have never been born if it hadn't been for his wise owner Penny. She was a big star and an inspiration to women everywhere.
Greatest Horse Ever
😢😢😢Time flies by to fast
Best horse ever!!
Spectacular horse
He was such a handsome boy❤😊
Majestic.

Si este caballo es de mis faboritos si lo ubieran crusado con cuartos de milla como beduino tendriamos las mejores crusas del mundo

What was awful about that movie?
The movie should have been filmed in the late 1970's.

Secrétariat records have not been broken so i would say thats your answer
Man ò War was just as good.
I hope that secretariat left some wonderful foals behind.
Yes, You Are !!!
Just to have him back wish he could of been cloned. Not to race, just for people to see him.
He was an awesome horse
🥰☺️😇
Mom I’m famous :D
Wish I could have ridden him. Horses are every bit as exciting to ride as Dirt bikes and Atvs.
He was a stunning thoroughbred for sure. But overrated big time. Real Champions like Dr. Fager or Spectacular Bid were just faster. Mathematics don't lie.
Are you sure, but Secretariat's records were not broken after 50 years? If Secretariat wanted to race, there would be no horse able to beat him.
@@chiaoengchia7507 No Horse could beat him...
what math??? Record NEVER Broken..NEVER.!!!!!
I only saw Big Red on tv. He got me interested in Thorough Bred racing. Closest closer I ever saw was Red's son , Risen Star. Won the Belmont by 13 lengths after being beaten by Sunday Silence in the Derby and Preakness. Beautiful horse.
Oh, forgot. I buy Red cars and call them "Big Red" out of respect for the Greatest racehorse to run on a racetrack.
the horse that God made....
