From last to first again and again in record time that still stands.

EL: That was a great warm-up race for what was in store at the Belmont.  Thanks for posting it.  Bob

I was so dismayed over the deaths of all those horses and the need to scratch the favorite that I didn't even watch the Derby this year.

I wish Flightline had run in the triple crown races last year.  I don't think he would have beaten Secretariats times, but he very likely would have been a dominant triple crown winner and sparked conversations.

Just heard this weekend that Secretariats heart was much bigger than the average race horse....I guess you really can measure that..

Secretariat invariably comes up as we experience yet another Triple Crown season. I was in my early 20s and not much of a horse racing fan.( had never even come close to winning at the track) but this magnificent animal captured the attention of the entire country.

I highly recommend reading the story Bill Nack wrote for Sports Illustrated after Big Red died. Excellent

Always loved the prank calls to Mike Francesa asking why he didn't or if he will have the horses on for an interview.
