Secretariat - "O Happy Day "

[@chihuahuagirl128]

Secretariat's momma "Something Royal" would be proud of her lil' boy :)

[@elizabethf794]

Why in the world would 35 people give this a thumbs down? Gives me chills every time I watch it.

[@freshstart9309]

Me too. I have seen the movie a out 15 times and this song and this scene, total goosebumps.

[@Elvisfan2026]

I love this movie

[@phaatsogood6563]

Because they don’t understand the magnificent of a horse and human relationship or get the meaning of the movie

[@lucindajones701]

Cause they're haters

[@terriwaibel6272]

Me, too! My favorite movie.

[@quinlanrebecca5714]

Tears run down my cheeks everytime I watch this movie! I was 16 when this happened, I'm 62 and I will never forget!! I love it! If there is an afterlife I will live on a horse farm. I LOVE them so much! RIP all---you have made my life richer. THANK YOU!

[@karolinesmail489]

I was 11 watching with my father on a old bnw tv never will forget it RIP big red

[@juliejames4992]

I was young when he ran all his races but I still remember how people talked about the horse that God made. He was a horse that brought this country something good to think about instead of the war. I remember he was on all the covers of magnize at our house. Mom showed his picture off and told me to always be a believer in people and animals. We all need his sprit everyday. We all learned from a horse/and his owner. Love and peace always..

"My curiosity got the best of me. I had to turn around. When I looked at it, I scared myself." ~ Ronny Turcotte. "There's no horse in the history of horse-racing that could have beaten Secretariat on that day." ~ Mike Battaglia, Daily Racing Form.

[@Hoosierguy-du4fu]

It’s a great documentary! 30-30

[@julielovorn6845]

I was young when this horse that NOBODY wanted except 1 lady. A housewife fought for this horse and right from wrong. This horse brought a country together again. You must remember the times - all the hate with the war, and many more hateful things - love changed the world. With God's help they made it thru all the trials and won the triple crown. They beat the odds and so can we.

[@freshstart9309]

Preach

[@debrabalinski-long1183]

Love it: "Ronnie, don't fall off!!!"

[@milenagriffiths3679]

Debra Balinski-Long That’s one of my favourite parts in the movie!

[@maninthebox0]

Penny Tweedy said that’s what Lucien was actually shouting. That was the only thing that would’ve caused them to lose at that point lol.

[@silverpurkat]

I knew of a trainer now retired and in his 80s tell us that story of being at the race and he was two boxes over and what Lucien actually said was “Ronnie, don’t fucking fall off!” and everyone laughed. Which is why it was memorable statement and obviously Disney would had to kind of edit that out. He also has a picture of secretariat with both Lucien and Ronnie’s signature on it. So I would believe him especially when Disney did portray Lucien as a colorful very opinionated character in the movie. 🙂

[@AD-bc2gi]

My favorite line too!

[@tedmichaels1951]

Chilling! Secretariat was a thing of beauty that performed at an unthinkable level.

[@michellekirby1486]

I love this song!! It makes me cry happy tears every time I hear it.

[@dontpanicatthehorseshow521]

Michelle Kirby same

[@marylawson6060]

Michelle Kirby Me too love this movie and Oh Happy Day old hymn.

[@quinlanrebecca5714]

Me too. Wow the right me too!

[@BeastBrookGod30]

reminds me of when i hit the game winning shot in our basketball championship 2 years ago..i was so overwhelmed and remembered this song...probably the happiest day of my life so far

[@pattiwinn5217]

Same here, nice to know I’m not the only one.

[@juliejames934]

I love the horse. It always came from behind almost always and won. When he died they measured his heart - well needless to say it was huge in size and love. He teaches us all never give up!

[@user-rp6xp2fb2r]

Julie James just goes to show that anyone from the lowest of lows can rise above and become the greatest in all history!!

[@jamestulk5111]

His heart was estimated to be 10kg. Sham's was 8kg and we know how any lengths behind he finished. Sham would have been a legend in any other era, he stillbroke the record in the Kentucky Derby and finished second. Phar Lap's heart is in the Canberra Museum and is 6.5kg, still twice the size of the average horse heart. Secretariat wasn't a horse, he was a 'Tremendous Machine"!

[@60asteroid]

@@jamestulk5111 Yep. About 22 LBS

[@xtremeclark5669]

On the 30th of March in 1970, god created a horse, not a stallion, but a red horse with the power to shake the ground and surge pass his opponent’s with ease to win the crowns of man. Rest in beautiful Peace red may you where crowns with god

[@charmed937LJ]

My favourite film of ALL time. Such a brilliant horse.

[@richardprado5914]

I can't stop crying, this history is awsome, and the song make it more special. God blesses all of you....

[@proud2bpagan]

If God made a more beautiful creature,He kept it for Himself.

[@TheJustjim3333]

This horse looked nothing like Secretariat

[@karolinesmail489]

@Daley he looked slo like him I saw the original!

[@marylawson6060]

That amazing horse helped save Penny's family horse farm. God works in mysterious ways and Secretariat broke the mold.

[@stallion6338]

Secretariat is the best horse EVER

[@hayleybartek8643]

I love how the jockeys are shown to have respect for each other.

[@naynaystjohn9266]

That was a good movie---not entirely fact based but a good movie. We'll never EVER see another like Secretariat again. He truly WAS "The Horse that God built"....

[@cheyennerichter9339]

amen

[@cubnation]

NayNay StJohn Thank God that Penny Chenery and William Nack had a say so in the making of the movie. Had they not, it wouldn't have come close to being fact based. I love how they showed the actual 1973 Preakness Stakes.

[@emoeller30]

Agreed

[@southpaw3sox635]

....I believe Chenery had huge integrity in saving the brood mare farm, her auspice in the film lended that same integrity. To capture all the vital detail, perhaps omissions even, a time machine would have came in handy.

[@lily6216]

so proud to of seen the very stall where he was born. His birthplace is an hour from me, and has his great great (x?) granddaughter, groundshaker living there now. So cool

[@chriseilerman279]

Every time I watch this, I cry!

[@smilnjac]

Me too, and I cried like a baby when he passed.

[@60asteroid]

[@ManjuSingh-io6ix]

One horse God seems to hve made wth all the care and attention !!theres none like him even today !!❤️❤️

[@chriscorley6478]

Secretariat, my hero. Fantastic film!

[@freakshowcreep2455]

"Ronnie, don't fall off!" Literally what my trainer says every time I jump a horse

[@robertesposito7434]

I was 22 years old...& i saw history....what a horse !!!

[@pfull9206]

Awww...that feel so good. I love this big guy. And he loved black gospel music.

[@davidwilliamson8861]

I just love this inspiring piece!!!!

[@allisonheise1328]

Great rider and a great horse, great movie

[@ultimateactivitiesdude2685]

One of the greatest moments from a movie!

[@justjokinntokin5474]

2:17 the famous look back......."where did everybody go" 😱

[@garysimms6412]

The greatest horse of all time

[@southpaw3sox635]

.....he taught me how...to fight and pray.....I think of Penny Chenery and how she saved that farm...if Penny Chenery had not saved that farm, there would be no telling where Secretariat would have ended up. In the destitution of the farm...Chenery did fight and pray.

[@juliejames4992]

Yes it took someone that truly believed! It just takes one person. Penny taught us all a lesson in life. Never give up!!

[@southpaw3sox635]

Julie James ....yes, like...her life was not perfection, that brood mare farm was not perfection, Secretariat was awkward....yassss....fight and pray.

[@quinlanrebecca5714]

God Bless! Faith moves mountains!

[@rachaelthomson6969]

One part i like near end is lucien after everything pancho said about them leading up 2 the races he shakes his hand saying you have a great horse very good after everything

[@rachaelthomson6969]

And this year was triple crown winner number 13

[@ryanp9458]

This was the best performance of Bojack Horseman’s career

[@JessicaSalenaOrtiz]

GOD IS GOOD. GIVE US GLORY

He did with Secretariat.

[@cathybrown7559]

A really interesting and moving documentary of Secretariat's Triple Crown can be found on youtube starting with Secretariat's Triple Crown - Part 1 - Sportscentury.

[@gabbyhassler3913]

When I ran my first indoor track meet of my 10th grade year I got out of the gate so bad that I was dead last and I picked off every girl until I got first my dad called said I was just like Secretariat 🏇

[@LordofDublin4]

Gabby .... that makes you a Winner not just because you finished first but because fought your way back and didn't quit. 👍🏇

[@wallybell3255]

Beautiful......

[@jonneat108]

Hold on, Many Horse "Experts" still believe that Man 0 War was and is the greatest ever. However, if you ever had a chance to meet Secretariat in person, you'd Understand what many already know. Big Red was a Human trapped in a Horses body. The body and ❤️ that was Touched by GOD himself⚡️

[@karolinesmail489]

Amen!

[@jspjsp871]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@BBBYpsi]

I was sitting next to Penny & crew when I was just 12 years old. I remember her being mad at the jockey for running him to hard. She was really mad in the stands. Ronnie never brought out the whip or tried to get Secretariat to run that fast. I got to go to the after party & heard her yelling at Ronnie about it. But at the end she realized it was the horse that wanted to run like that. Ronnie said he was not even tired hence running for another 1/2 lap after he finished.

[@davidmehnert6206]

🐎 THE BELMONT BALL ⚾️ 🍣 Tell me, Miss Ham: Was it a Sham That this horse won at 2:24? Or was the clock slightly slow, To better lessen the blow, Had the horse come in slightly before?

[@debrabalinski-long1183]

"Oh, Happy Days..."

[@akinitos3195]

Ticks me off that people don’t know this movie more than they should

[@Shamariah2011]

Who played secretariat in this movie. Certainly a beautiful horse. Rippling muscles but not ‘skin a size too small’ with bulging muscles 💪 as in secretariat’s case.

[@Petittwo]

Several horses were used to depict Secretariat in the film, chief among them Trolley Boy, whose great-great-grandsire was the real-life Secretariat, and Longshot Max, whose bloodline includes Secretariat's sire, Bold Ruler, as well as his grandsire, Princequillo.

People talk about his heart size but that is a medical condition that he could have acquired after winning all the races ...

Nope...genetic

It was genetic, traced back to an ancestor from the 1700's.
