Not even close. Sham in 1973 set a record for the second fastest derby ever. Unfortunately for him the winner that day set the record for the fastest ever, Secretariat. That record still stands 51 years later.
I think is the great race, Because the story of the Horse, the guy who's ride the horse and the owner of the horse. You have to know the story, Is beautiful 😍
The only way that could be the greatest ever is that you owned the horse . Has he won a race since then ? SECRETARIAT THE GREATEST RACE HORSE EVER . Still holds all 3 records 51 YEARS later .
No. It wasn't the greatest Derby ever. Not even close. BUT ....... Larry's call of the race IS one of the greatest ever. Find the video of him calling the race and you'll see what I mean.
Mine That Bird was better....dead last by over 20 lengths to winner by 3 lengths. Commentator had to look for his name by his number...even he couldn't believe it!
Absolutely not the best KD race. Damn good but not the best. Secretariat "big Red" is still hands down to this day the fastest pony to ever hit the track. Still holds the fastest time of 1.59...
Lil E tee, was also a 50-1 long shot, I think 88, or 89 derby. He won the Jim Beam steaks, a few months earlier , in kentucky, he trained at turffway Park race track, less than 100 miles from Churchill downs. Me and my buddies, went to river downs in Cincinnati, made our bets. Last bet was a $20, ten apiece on lil e tee, just for shits n giggles. But we knew this dusta,ce was same as the beam steaks. We partied till Monday morning!!!!! We won over 5000 a peice!!!!!
Won $400 bucks on that horse putting a $5 bet on him for shits and giggles. When I placed the bet he literally had 99-1 odds and it made me giggle. No idea what the odds were at gates but he’s still my favorite derby winner for it
Sham comes in second. He ran the second fastest derby in history. Unfortunately for him it was the race that Secretariat set the record for the fastest derby ever

He was added after the horse Ethereal Road was out of the Kentucky derby. I remember the announcement of the horses when the announcer said,when it came to rich strike, the last-minute replacement, he said oh this horse doesn't matter he was just added. Amazing race for this average athlete horse. 👍
The 1992 Kentucky Derby was Pat Day's ONLY win in 24 Kentucky Derby. Lil E. Tee was a longshot. Arazi, the favorite, was thought to be "unbeatable." Lil E. Tee looks Arazi straight in the eye before he passes him. When Lil E. Tee passed away, Pat Day said, "I've ridden better race horses. But the victory he gave me, is second to none."
The 1973 KY Derby is the greatest Derby of all time!!! Not sure how you think an 80-1 shot winner tops record setting time by Secretariat that still stands 51 years later. Rich Strike got lucky that day. Hasn’t won a race since then either.
Great ride Sonny... Fast early pace sets up for a closer... The horse was not doped up. One of the most thrilling Derby's in my lifetime. I wasnt around for Secretariat or Affirmed. Mine that Bird was awesome as well.
So many great turf tracks in the USA 🇺🇸, yet one of their most prestigious races is on dirt. Down here in the southern hemisphere, many people trying to work out why that is so.🤔😁👍
Rich Strike LOVED Churchill. He was the quintessential "Horses for Courses" Hope he goes on to be a super stud. Now that would be long shot bet.not impossible, he has some blue blood. Unbridled Song out of a black type (LS) Dehere mare. Wishing Rich Strike and his connections a healthy happy stage two in his career!!!

Secretariat set the record NOT SHAM WHO WAS NOT EVEN CLOSE. My great aunt's horse blew him away... . And that horse was SECRETARIAT

Absofuckinglutely Excellent!!!
This is why we have the race, sometimes the underachiever, the outsider, the participant says "HOLD MY BEER", and then folks we have ourselves a GAME!
Secretariat makes these horses look slow.
COME ON NOW, NOBODY CAN TELL ME THE NAME OF THIS EPIC SONG???
Secretariat!!! Thats all you need to say!
Rich strike and sonny was a beast that day
Not the greatest of all time, but his greatest day! ❤
80 to 1? Oh to have even a 10.00 bet on the horse.
Mystik Dan 2024 broke this video title
Bro rich strike was on drugs that’s why all the videos of the mouth foaming got taken down 😂
Nope.
S E C R E T A R I A T
Sunny Leone?? 😂
What about Secretariat?
Epic!!!!! This is History!!!
Awsome Race!
I'm telling you that was one of my favorite Kentucky Derby stories I watched the video all the time of Rich strike and his win
I’m a very casual horse racing fan, but I remember sitting in stunned silence for about 10 mins after this race. One for the history books, for sure!!
Mine That Bird was better....dead last by over 20 lengths to winner by 3 lengths. Commentator had to look for his name by his number...even he couldn't believe it!

My cuzins best friend hit for $5 million on that race!!!
Secretariat the Triple Crown winner 1973 I think. If you have never watched it I would. Set records that stand to this day.
No derby race is greater than 1973 secretariat
Rich Strike was my favorite, Sonny Leon rode the perfect race. Though I recall watching Secretariat and loving that dominance.
Secretary and Sea biscuit are still the greatest
Song?
Song???
Nick smoked him tbh. Also does destiny think covid didn’t come from a lab?
Absolutely not the best KD race.
Damn good but not the best.

80-1 that’s crazy
That ride and the run were one of the best ever. Doesn’t matter what people say about Rich Strike, he was the best there that day by a long shot.
Best ride ever...Sonny defined JOCKEY
racing is so unnecessary
A flop of a horse and a fluke of a win
1972. That is all.
One of the best sports moments I have witnessed
War emblem
sonny has won me a lot at belterra 🤫
Secretariat , no one else comes close, especially a fluke like Rich strike.
Sham comes in second. He ran the second fastest derby in history. Unfortunately for him it was the race that Secretariat set the record for the fastest derby ever
I remember that ❤❤❤
I was going for epicenter
This was amazing as all get out!! 80 to 1
Oh I wish I'd bet him. It was HIS day
How quickly they forget Secretariat.
50/1 yeah I remember 🤑
Mine That Bird was amazing in 2009!
Horse was juiced. Hate this horse

Leaves from post 21, and wins up the rail, best ride ever.
He was added after the horse Ethereal Road was out of the Kentucky derby. I remember the announcement of the horses when the announcer said,when it came to rich strike, the last-minute replacement, he said oh this horse doesn't matter he was just added. Amazing race for this average athlete horse. 👍
That really was a awesome derby.
This post with the music blaring is so childish and amateurish that only a teenager would post it .
Secretariat. Still holds all 3 of the triple crown track records.
I don't think at Pimlico, he does hold the stakes records though
Secretariat wont be repeated butthat run bu Rich Strike certainly reminds us. He was reaching out phenomenaly
Yup. Sonny gave RS a hell of a ride!
I agree I remember watching and crying.
@@109367 Yes, Secretariat still, after 51 years, still holds all 3 track records. The greatest athlete I ever saw.
I will never forget
The 1992 Kentucky Derby was Pat Day's ONLY win in 24 Kentucky Derby. Lil E. Tee was a longshot. Arazi, the favorite, was thought to be "unbeatable." Lil E.

I can still hear the announcer screaming in the microphone, Rich Strikes wins the Kentucky Derby!❤
Yo I’m not into horse racing but this video got me fired up!!
ANYTHING can happen in the Kentucky Derby..🤷😆..
Sonny gave Rich Strike a darn good ride. RS was full of run that day for sure. He was the best horse that day, which is what mattered.
Secretariat
still can't beat the 1973 KENTUCKY DERBY. SECRETARIAT.

A good jockey may or may not win but a great jockey helps his horse to win.
❤☺️ Good run Rich Strike. Someone write this boy a book!! He needs his story told!!!
Secretariat would've smoked him
I ❤ when a long shot comes in and steals the race from the favorites😂
Epicenter what a warrior he was 🐴🍎…
Pains me to watch this race. Having the pick 4 and 5 multiple times to 7 horses
I love this horse he is a character for sure!
Mine that bird's win was better
Mine That Bird, Better ride. Had Tom Laughing.
One word……SECRETARIAT
Great ride Sonny... Fast early pace sets up for a closer... The horse was not doped up. One of the most thrilling Derby's in my lifetime. I wasnt around for Secretariat or Affirmed. Mine that Bird was awesome as well.

Mine that bird, 50:1
Poor Zandon. Look at his tongue. 😢 I use to race. That isn’t good.
Good, but absolutely not.... Mine that Bird beats this hands down!
