From 1992: Ode to Secretariat
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 05. 2019
- Charles Kuralt presents this remembrance of one of the truly great racehorses: Secretariat (1970-1989), whose monumental 31-length victory in the Belmont Stakes in 1973 was a run for the ages. We also hear from Penny Chenery Tweedy, Secretariat's owner; Heywood Hale Broun, who covered Secretariat's Triple Crown win; and Arthur Boyd Hancock III, the owner of Stone Farm, a 2,000 acre horse-breeding operation in Paris, Kentucky, who looks over the very last foal of Secretariat, Risen Starlet. Originally broadcast on "Sunday Morning" May 3, 1992.

This just came up on my page. And whenever it’s about secretariat, I open it I read it, and my eyes fill up with tears. I truly believe he was a gift from God and there will never be another horse like him. I was privileged to be at the Belmont in 73 and it was the greatest day of my life.
Oh just look at that beautiful little darling foal. So precious. What a little Love.
He was simply the best we will ever see. 🏇
Was ten years old, and will never forget the Belmont. Still blows my mind to this day, he was (and is) the Super-Horse!
I cried the day it was announced Secretariat had past away.
Beautiful horse.
My 4 daughters, and I, visited Secretariat back in the early 80's. In-person, he was more magnificent than any photos/videos could ever show.
I have a feeling there will NEVER be another Secretariat ... he was anatomically perfect, almost a freak of nature, with a heart twice the size of a normal horse. He was PERFECTION and truly God’s horse. I pray horses go to heaven cuz I’d love to meet him someday
Oh how I also wish to meet Secretariat in heaven....
I love him so much, keep running in heaven precious "BIG RED"
I didn’t see Babe Ruth, Joe DiMaggio or Ted Williams but I did get to see the greatest of all time Secretariat!
I wish I seen "Big Red" in person...
First time I have ever seen him running in the snow!!! What a vision. He gave us all so much joy at a time when there was so much anxiety and worry throughout the country and the world. Thanks Big Red. We'll never forget you.
When I was younger we watched every race they televised with Secretariat in it. Magnificent horse!
Secretariat was a great horse, and a triple crown winner. I was so impressed, l named my bike after him. Such a beautiful horse who was loved by so many of us horse lovers. My bike was the same color as his fur.🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🌫🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🐚🌻🍀🌻
Thank you for Highlighting my comment! A horse is a horse unless it is Secretariat!!!!🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🍀💐🍀💐🍀💐🍀💐🍀💐🍀💐🍀💐🍀💐🍀💐🍀💐🍀💐🍀💐🐎
@@natashasemrau3670 they all are something special every last one of them but very few make it to greatness
My great-great-grandfather, Sunny Jim Fitzsimmons, trained Secretariat’s father, Bold Ruler. I suppose that makes us related! 🐎
Sunny Jim was also Seabiscuit's first trainer, so you have some rather impressive six-degrees-of-Kevin-Bacon going on there! 🐴🐴
What a wonderful legacy in your family! Mr. Fitzsimmons was so accomplished.
I was 17, just graduated high school. Me and my best friend begged our mothers to let us take a car to go to Belmont. Both refused. When I see my mother in Heaven, I'll remind her I lost my chance to see Secretariat.
All of Secretariats records have never been broken! 🐎
Not all
@@lorrainelloyd7750True.
@@lorrainelloyd7750 Secretariat's triple crown records still have not been broken and it's now 2024. Try again, hater.
I was a girl who loved horses. I remember that year he won the Tripple Crown, I was so happy. Then it all went to sh** when I discovered boys. Should've stuck to horses.
A filly by Secretariat would not present with the big heart, but she would have the potential to carry the gene and pass it on to her colts.
Such a great story to match a great horse! SECRETARIET is missed to this day.
Secretariat vs.American Pharoah
Derby1:59.4 vs. 203.2 (-3.8 sec)
Preakness 1:53 flat vs.1:58.46 (-5.5 sec)
Belmont 2:24 flat vs 2:26.65 (-2.65) in a sport where tenths of a second separate success and failure his time margins are insane!
His time at the Belmont would have defeated these other TRIPLE CROWN WINNERS by the following margins that day, based on their Belmont times: American Pharoah - 13 lengths; Affirmed - 14 lengths; Count Fleet - 21 lengths; Citation - 21 lengths; War Admiral - 23 lengths; Seattle Slew - 28 lengths; Omaha - 33 lengths; Assault - 34 lengths; Whirlaway - 35 lengths; Gallant Fox - 38 lengths (source: ESPN).
Thanks for that translation into lengths! That shows his dominance much better than the times do!!
He has a voice soothing voice.
I can’t believe there will ever be another Secretariat. He had been touched by God, that’s all there is to it.
One had to wonder how could he do that?
What I have noticed with all of my pets, no matter they would be, was that if I said,
"It's okay," that seemed to be the two words that they heard and trusted to feel safe about, and then they would come, or do whatever I was wanting them to come to me for, and do. JUST TRY SAYING IT TO GET THEM INTO THE GATE, AND SEE IF IT WORKS FOR YOU TOO. I BET IT WILL.
Risen Starlet never raced.
I’m sorry to hear that. And I guess she didn’t produce any foals of racing note…
Better take this down....Al Jolson is mentioned.....Yes i am being sarcastic.....Its Derby Day!!!!
jmissle Love on the Rocks
Donald Trump never made the covers of Time and Newsweek and it irks him no end. He never merited it, but s horse called Secretariat did. God love that horse!
Secretariat vs American Pharaoh ??
Never got a chance to bet on Secretariat but, I did bet with friends that A. P. would go all the way .. another great horse.
Secretariat all the way!!!
Are you serious? You can’t be serious!!!
Bugatti vs
VW Beetle..Raquel Welch or Lily Tomlin...Shakespeare or an Archie comic book!! American Pharoah was a great horse but Secretariat was the gold standard, he was the "annoited one", he is "Big Red" for the love of God! I say is because he didn't just run himself into the history books but galloped right into immortality!!!
@jasonkvanzant, no horse has yet to match Secretariat's triple crown's records.
😪😪😪😪😪😪
Some of these folks who talk about horses remind me of human trafficking folks in Slumdog Millionaire.
Domesticating animals isn't slavery,, doofus.
