::||Frankel:: I'm The World's G reatest [03:33]
I was at Ascot to see this mighty champion run his last race. In winning the Champion Stakes, he thrashed the second highest rated horse in the world, Cirrus De Aigles and 4th highest rated, Nathaniel. IMO he is the greatest we've seen and it's a privilege to have seen him in the flesh. He retires unbeaten in 14 races, winning by an aggregate of over 70 lengths. No one came close to beating him and he did so much much for his trainer, Sir Henry Cecil who is battling cancer. I will never forget this horse and what he and his legacy will and have done for British racing. Thank you Frankel, if any of your foals are are half as good as you then we are in for a treat. I OWN NOTHING BUT THE EDITING.
Secretariat At Play [01:34]
This is a short clip of the 12 year old Secretariat running for enjoyment at Claiborne Farm. In 1973 Secretariat became the first US Triple Crown champion in 25 years, setting race records in all three events in the Series—the Kentucky Derby (1:59.4), the Preakness Stakes (1:53) and the Belmont Stakes (2:24) - records that still stand today. He is considered to be one of the greatest thoroughbreds of all time. Secretariat was conceived in Kentucky and born in Doswell Virginia on March 29th, 1970. Secretariat died on October 4th, 1989 at Paris, Kentucky. The race horse was euthanized at age 19 due to laminitis, a hoof condition. Secretariat was given the honor of being buried whole in the Claiborne cemetery. It is traditional for horses to be buried "head, heart, and hooves", but certain special horses deserve special treatment.
