Secretariat was not just the greatest racehorse in history, he was one of the greatest athletes of all time. The beautiful, red colt captivated the attention and imagination of a public enthralled by horse racing’s 1973 Triple Crown at a time when there hadn’t been a Triple Crown winner in 25 years. During the '73 Kentucky Derby, Secretariat started last and finished first, posting the fastest Derby time any horse had ever run. He did it again in the Preakness—last to first, fastest time ever—to become a national sensation. And with all eyes on him, Secretariat dominated the Belmont Stakes, running the fastest mile-and-a-half ever, on any track. Unbelievable, unprecedented and unforgettable—Secretariat's run to greatness remains a story-book tale of why we love sports.
