Now This Is A Horse

After writing my column for today on Big Brown's loss, I went back and looked at the old footage of Secretariat's Triple Crown run in 1973. Here's the video of his incredible 31-length victory in that year's Belmont Stakes, which set a record that no horse has even come close to in 35 years since. This is one of the greatest performances in the history of sports.
