Secretariat-SuperHorse
 
Secretariat was one of the last triple crown winners, just before our last one affirmed. He was thought to be one of the greatest race horses to grace american soil and to this day holds a record of 25 lengths that had never been done before or since. As he turned the poles, it seemed instead of growing tired like the other horses he seemed to add on momentum and ground, gaining ground with each quarter pole he passed. It was said that the horse was bionic. Actually he had a heart that was twice the size as a normal one and was able to get more oxygen to his lungs and circulate more blood threw his body because of it, giving him greater stamina then the others on the field.. so without further adue.. here is my tribute to Secretariat.

Secretariat's historical run at the belmont.
