I know your comment is 11yrs old, but whilst Man O' War was a great horse, Secretariat is the greatest race horse who has ever lived thus far. Secretariat's Triple Crown records still stand more than 50yrs later and will most likely never be beaten.

I have been on the fence for 10 years as to who was the greater horse, Man O' War or Secretariat. But when all is said and done, I believe Man O' War was for two reasons. One, he didn't have the advantage of a starting gate, modern shoes and tracks, which were speed favoring. Yet he set records and dominated the era. Secondly, the quality of his progeny sets him apart from Secretariat. Man O' War was the sire of War Admiral, another great horse. It's a close call, but I have decided finally.
@TimesUp777
@TimesUp777 Жыл бұрын
I dont think having a starting gate is any advantage. Using a tape for the starting gate in Man O Wars days may have been an advantage because the horses were not sitting still before they started running. How do you know that the tracks back then were not as fast as the tracks in Secretariat's day? There is no way to measure that and its very hard to compare horses when they raced 40 years apart. They were both the GOATS.

Man O War was absolutely a great racehorse but if you research his races you will find he faced short fields and inferior competition. This is not an attempt to diminish his accomplishments it was not his fault that the competition was poor and most owners would not run their horses against him. The best horse he faced was Sir Barton whom he defeated handily in a match race. Again I am not trying to belittle him he was far and away the best horse of his time and it is impossible to say how he would have faired against the likes of Dr.Fager , Secretariat, Seattle Slew, Kelso and a host of other modern day racehorses who faced much better and larger fields. I don't question his greatness but I do question people who say he was the best ever.

@@jameskeeney2032 You have to look at all of the evidence. There's a reason why, even to this day almost 100 years later, the majority of racing experts still side with Man O War. His level of competition is debatable for several reasons. Horse racing at this time was the third most popular sport behind Baseball and Boxing. There were more race tracks then, more race horses, and more trainers then there are today. Horse racing has been on the decline for several decades now. Sir Barton lost credibility because of his loss to MOW, but Sir Barton had just broken a World Record several days before their match race. The lack of "big name" thoroughbreds is because he destroyed them. Secretariat for instance, had Sham as a rival because Sham had beaten him prior to the Triple Crown races. Everyone knew Upset beating Man O War was a fluke, hence no rivalry and Upset doesn't become one of the greats like many people believe Sham was.

Jason Wiggins I am not attempting to shortchange Man O War he was hands down the greatest racehorse of his time. You are wrong about the amount of race horses competing at this time it was post WW1 and breeding was very low and the number of horses racing was also very.low. Man O War may well have beaten the best of modern horses that it an argument that can never be settled. It is totally an opinionated subject and every horse racing fan has their own personal preference. I respect your opinion one can only wonder. James Keeney

@@TimesUp777 It was not a match race. Man O' War was running really well and had easily beaten the American record for a mile and a half in a workout days before the race (carrying 130 pounds), scaring away all but one horse, War Mint. Then the owner of War Mint decided to withdraw him only one hour before the race. Back then, if only one horse ran, the purse was cut in half. So Mr. Riddle's niece entered her horse Hoodwink to prevent that. He wasn't very good and had run the day before so the 100 lengths isn't that big a deal. What was a big deal was that running on his own and with instructions not to push him, he broke the American record by over 4 seconds and the world record by 1 3/5 seconds

Northern Dancer was from Native Dancer. Native Dancer is also in the line of "Fair Play". The more i looked into the pedigree of the great horses, Fair Play is in almost all of them. This includes 5 TCW's and almost every horse that won two legs of the TC. Fair Play was the sire of Man O War and probably the best sire ever. Fair Play is almost the only line that all the great horses have in common, usually from Man O War, Display, Discovery, Miss Disco, or Geisha.

Then, if the horse is trained to become fit to race, look out, something very special could be coming out of the starting gate!!!!!

When a racehorse dies, the tradition is that his head, heart, and hooves are buried in a box. But Man-o-war was granted the rare honor of being buried as a whole horse. Incidentally, his heart was about twice as large as that of other racehorses. It was the most important "extra" he possessed, besides his will to win.

@@brocklanders6969 You'll have to do better than that. He didn't race the triple crown, but he destroyed the triple crown winner Sir Barton just weeks after Barton broke a World Record. Man O' War retired with more track records, American records, and World Records than the smaller, slower, and the horse with a shorter stride, Secretariat. Also, shoes were lighter, tracks were significantly faster, and steroids were prevalent by the 70's. Secretariat also lost five races and was nothing compared to Man O' War's stud record. Almost every American Thoroughbred comes from Man O' War including multiple triple crown winners. There is absolutely NO contest and these and many other reasons are why the vast majority of horse racing experts named Man O' War Horse of the Century. FACTS. Try again.

He's so reminiscent of Secretariat in appearance! Same beautiful color, even down to the white star and thin strip down his nose. Both were nicknamed 'Big Red' had both had large hearts by comparison to others. Hmm...could it be? Never mind.

He won the triple crown, MOW did not (he never ran the Derby), and Sec won the last Triple Crown race with 33 lengths. I think that they are equally good, however! Secretariat was still charging at the finish, so we might never know how fast he could run. Then again, we don't know how fast MOW can run either, so nobody can tell for sure who would win.

@@riannekuilder7374 Sorry, 33 lengths is quite short of Man O' War's 100 length (a quarter mile) victory. Hall of Fame trainer Elliott Burch said that Steroids became a part of Thoroughbred racing in the mid 60's. By the 70's, it was prevalent in all horses. That's the deciding factor if anything. Even after the crackdown in 2008, certain forms of Steroids are still allowed to this day. It was impossible for Citation and Man O'War to have used, they were pure Thoroughbreds. Sir Barton faced accusations of cocaine use, but there is absolutely no evidence of it. Maybe one day we'll see horse racing become drug free again, but I doubt it.

@azyooper44 see, but Man O' War can never be touched either. They are two DIFFERENT horses of two DIFFERENT times, and both are at the pinnacle of what horse racing should be. Man O' War set the standard of a great racehorse, and while Secretariat may have reached the same point, you can never compare to completely different things and come out saying which one is better. I know I'd be glad to have owned either one of those two horses!

carly -- your horseracing clips are works of art. Particularly those you have done on Man O' War; quite moving. I am old enough to have seen the likes of Kelso and Secretariat and Affirmed in person. If I am reading it correctly and you are only 16, you have not only great skill but amazing perspective. Thank you so much for your posts on these magnificent horses.

actually, I did some research and Secretariat is not a direct descendant of Man 'O War, but I believe Man 'O War's sire Fair Play is in Secretariat's pedigree somewhere. Seabiscuit is Man 'O War's grandson, though.
