as for secretariat, he lost two of his three races against older. that's blowing wheels off???
seattle slew continued his unbeaten streak into and through the triple crown. bern lost his first start. i'll take the unbeaten tc winner, thanks very much.

Slew is my favorite, period. His two grandsons look pretty good from where I sit, however.

Saying that Secretariat would have been syndicated for 40 million if he raced as a 4yo is the most absurd statement I have read on this forum. BBB
