Secretariat - The Meadow Monster [01:27]
My tribute to the mighty Secretariat. In the first two racing clips you can see this horse's big, powerful stride eating up the turf. His jockey, Ron Turcotte, once said that Secretariat was even better on the grass, after he easily won the Man o' War Stakes, and his piston-like action does seem to handle this surface effortlessly. The super slow motion clip of "Big Red" destroying the field is from the Belmont Stakes. Secretariat was bred by the Meadow Farm in Virginia, and was foaled on March 30th, 1970. kentucky derby preakness stakes belmont triple crown ruffian forego marlboro cup horse racing track

O'Neill said prior to the race that what worked at 1¼ miles in a 20-horse field at Churchill Downs won't necessarily fly in the 13/16-mile middle leg of the Triple Crown, since Pimlico is known for its tight turns and speed-favoring surface. And it turned out to be a differeent race completely. O'Neill vowed to change instructions for 25-year-old upstart jockey Mario Gutierrez before the 11 starters go to the gate. "We'll be involved early," he said earlier this week. Bodemeister was the 3-2 favorite over the Derby winner, who entered the race at 3-1. But he competed for the sixth time this season and third time in five weeks.
