no, his was 20+lbs something, shams was a little bit less. Stop with 4xs the size, that's just dumb

It was a fraction more than twice the size

Northern Dancer produced Nijinsky and Man O’ War sired War Admiral.

Yes. The fact that Man O' War sired a triple crown winner is amazing. MOW was also the grandsire of Seabiscuit. @@johnhoie1

His Daughter is one of only two broodmares that produced two different winners of the triple crown races.

Yes His grandson storm cat went on to be a Great Sire

Storm cat

John, yes you are right. I think all of those magazines featured Big Red leading up to the test of a champion. Time, Newsweek and Sports Illustrated.

Owning copies of all three Sports Illustrated ,Newsweek, and Time in my collection. They are all dated June 11th, 1973, on the covers. The win at the Belmont was on June 9th. I'm sure the stories were being written at the time he was racing in all 3 of the Triple Crown races.

@@Randy-uv6btBoy, talk about pressure on Secretariat’s team. All 3 major magazines hitting the stands BEFORE the Belmont Stakes was run!! Thank goodness Big Red was more than up to the title of ‘Super Horse’ 🥇🏆

I hope he’s healthy & happy! Is he a Chestnut, like Big Red?

@@jm1657 He’s very healthy and happy at 17 years old. He’s a bay. I ride him on a regular basis mostly out in the desert and barefoot. He’s got real good feet for a thoroughbred. His Jockey club name is Deification. I call him Lucky. His father is Empire Maker and that makes him a brother to American Pharaoh. He got hurt his very first race in 2009 and went to a rehab ranch That’s where I found out about him and adopted him when he became available. Thanks for checking on him🤠

That's for sure, RIP the Great Secretariat..❤❤

OMG I LOVED MR.ED. MY MOM AND I NEVER MISSED AN EPISODE OF HIS T.V. SHOW, AND WILBUR OF COURSE.

@@chirelle.alanalooney8609 Mr . Ed was the best and most talented horse ever …!

@@chirelle.alanalooney8609 Mr. Ed should have received an Academy award 🥇 …!

@@robertlee3805 You bet cha. He should have for sure. I think those Academy Awards are a Fraud. They NEVER GIVE THE AWARD TO THE PERSON OR SHOW THAT REALLY DESERVES IT. I KNOW A TON OF PEOPLE THAT THINK THAT TOO, AND IT'S NOT JUST YOU OR ME EITHER.

@@robertlee3805 Those so called Critics are out of touch with what the public likes. What the public likes, or Loves and Wants. They hate. AND what the public hates diesn't like and doesn't want, you can be damn sure that they will like it, and want it, and give it The Award.

Hi Jasmineskydancer, No offspring from Brahma. He’s a gelding. He is doing eventing with his new owner.

@@novantuno Thank you for the information!

@@novantuno I would never sell a Secretariat son-daughter or grandson if I had one. Never, ever. These horses I count as Treasures and would be priceless and unsellable to me.

Thank-you for the information!!! So appreciated!

This has been quite a few years ago. He was sometimes turned out with friends, but being an ex-racehorse he was always just pleased to be outside in a pasture munching on grass rather than stuck in a stall on a shedrow. He is now eventing and is regularly turned out with some of his stablemates by his new owner. He also gets to swim in Lake Champlain with his owner. He is living a good life. He was a good racehorse too. He won at both Pimlico and Charlestown and was in the money a total of 17 times. He broke into stakes company only once at Colonial. I've lost count of how many times he was the best horse in a race and just settled for second. He never really developed that killer instinct. Secretariat is his broodmare's sire. His other grandfather is undefeated Danzig.

He was in the money 17 times, broke his maiden at Pimlico. Ran in stakes company too. Yea he’s fast even with this 6’ 4” 180 pound rider in the irons.
