He should have practiced keeping a safe social distance from the other horses like Secretariat in the 73 Belmont.

I re-watch that race about once/year. Will there ever be such a dominant performance?

Me too!! A couple of times a year. The greastest race ever run by a horse. It’s the equivalent of a baseball player hitting 8 grandslams in a doubleheader or a running back rushing for 1000 yards in one game.

I re-watch the Triple Crown of 73 all the time. The Belmont was epic, but Secretariat's last to first run in the Preakness on the 1st turn was an unbelievable feat. I was there and have never seen a horse go that wide on Pimlico's tight turns and blow away all the horses so easily. That triple crown easily ranks in the top 3 of my favorite sports moments. That horse was so special.
