Secretariat is perhaps the greatest athlete in history. You can watch Disney’s attempt to tell the Secretariat story in theaters everywhere starting today. I spoke with someone who attended the world premier last weekend and they said that the movie was a very nice family feel-good story, much like the movie Rudy. If you are ever going to get your non-horse friends to watch something horse related, tonight seems like as good of a chance as you will get. According to the most scientific and accurate source for information online, Wikipedia, a necropsy after Secretariat’s death revealed that his heart was two and a half times the normal size for a horse.
The biggest domination in the history of sport:
Go Secretariat.
