The Legacy , the most astounding athletic performance in history. His records remain unbroken today.

Secretariat took the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes.
He came to the Belmont Stakes in June 1973 with a chance to become the first Triple Crown winner in a quarter of a century. Secretariat and his rider took the crown, finishing in first, by “an impossible 31 lengths.”http://oi56.tinypic.com/15tw2a.jpg
Secretariat is the only non-human athlete to be included on Sport’s Illustrated’s 1999 list of the top 100 athletes of the last hundred years for achieving one of the most sought-after titles in sports.
A dog will bring a stick back to it’s lazy owner, but there is no greater companionship than that between a human and a horse- he will run for you until his heart stops beating, and his legs crumble beneath you.

Ron Turcotte, the jockey who rode Secretariat to victory said. “I finally had to turn to see where the other horses were. I know this sounds crazy, but the horse did it by himself. I was along for the ride.”
