Andrew Beyer reworked Secretariat's stats in 2011 using updated methodology. ? He gave him a speed rating of 139 which is incredible to the say the least.
IT WOULD BE HARD TO COUNT SHAM OUT OF THE TRIPLE CROWN IF BIG RED HAD NOT BEEN IN IT BUT SHAM WAS BEATEN BADLEY BY EVERY HORSE IN THE BELMONT RACE, A GREAT HORSE NO DOUBT BUT TRIPLE CROWN I DON'T KNOW- GEORGE
I WOUD LOVE TO FIND SOME WEBSIGHJTS WITH PONCHO'S REMARKS ON ALL 3 RACES AND WHAT HE? THOUGHT OF BIG RED.
Awe inspiring. Who's says Racehorses? are not athletes!!!!
@ElectricJumperPony very true,had Sham been born one? year sooner or later,probably be a triple crown winner
I love how 90%? of the comments are about Secretariat, 9% are about how fast he is, and 1% is about poor old Sham. Don't get me wrong, I still like Secretariat, but barely anyone seems to show any sympathy for Sham. Its not like he was the worlds worst horse ever. Its not his fault he had to race against Secretariat, hes just a horse doing his job.
epic horse,but my heart? beats still for Ruffian. R.I.P. Ruffian...:(
I love the movie? and the speed he had is amazing! I think he is the best horse in the world and if he were still alive today i would wish to own him.
:D
@TristanandIsolt: Agreed. If it wasn't for Secretariat, there is little doubt Sham would have won the Triple Crown of 1973 and be regarded as an all-time champion. Considering his heart was physically much smaller than that of Secretariat you gotta admire the pure fighting spirit of Sham. Just look at the huge distances he? put between himself and the rest of the field (Secretariat excluded) during different stages of all three Triple Crown races.
@zXSwordXz ? I agree 110%!
@pickoffking It makes me sad to see what happened to Sham? in the Belmont. Simply had his heart ripped out by Secretariat.
His best move was in this race but his best race was the Belmont Stakes.? Not into horse racing because Im only 14, but this horse is amazing.
Imagine beeing on of the? other jockeys. Suddenly a brown bullet just flew forward.
A once in a lifetime horse.? Without doubt a thing of beauty.
Secretariat? is the best racehorse of all time.No questions asked.GO SECRETARIAT!!!
Secretariat put on weight in training for the Preakness. Laurin said the Girth that he wore in the Derby no longer big enough to go around his belly.. They had to go & buy? a bigger one.
They were right when they said "he moved like a Tremendous Machine"?
I know Shane Sellers very? well. I played guitar on his album and traveled with him a bit. If you ask him who is the greatest horse to ever live he says Secretariat!
I don't care how many of you will bash me for this statement but I will say it. Secretariat is the best horse I've ever seen or hear about. I know a lot of ppl will claim that Man O War is better because of? his record. But no horse can do what secretariat does...plus alot of the race he lost wasn't his fault. It was jockey error or they horse was sick. Secretariat is truly God's Horse....
@majesticbob2007 Secretariat is super natural he had? a heart twice the size of the rest of the horses hearts
Sham reminds me of Easy Goer,? could have been one of the greats but wrong damn year.
@babygirllily I agree.... you must see the movie when it comes out on October 8th to see how director Randall Wallace thinks about this race and how he fits it into the movie, google Baltimore Sun Secretariat Preakness pivotal role? and see what comes up.
That is? just absolutely incredible.
@carnivalwrestler Exactly. This is what sports is about, what gives my spine tingles and even brings tears to my eyes. There's no way that horse should have been able to do that, and he not only? did it but seemingly did it with ease, and as a virtual warmup to the last 50%+ of the race. Unreal.
I know exactly how you feel. Have you read Nack's bio and 8 pg intense description of Belmont? The jockey behind Pincay and Sham said he cld see Sham's legs getting rubbery at? 3/4 mi mark when Sec pulled away. He was starting to disintegrate. I was sick when I read that, but thankful that Pincay sensed it and stopped pushing him. He said Sham wasn't same horse as in Derby and Preakness. Panco shldn't have pushed him. Mr. Sommers cried and then went and got drunk.
