Secretariat was better than anyone else in the triple crown series. Whirlaway was probably the closest to him over the series. Whirlaway made a pretty decent crop look like Donkeys and he ran very, very fast in the KY Derby.
Count Fleet didn't have much competition and didn't run big until the Belmont, where he ran a giant race and injured himself...never running again.

i believe count fleet won the belmont by 25-the record til secretariat came along. very disappointing that he didn't race after that. no telling what else he would have accomplished.
and i'd have to think war admirals belmont would get a mention as a really good effort-considering he injured himself breaking from the gate. it was a bad enough injury that they thought he might have to be retired.
