Independent timers, at the race, caught Secretariat in record time. Penny Chenery is asking Maryland Jockey Club to review it, and give Secretariat the real, record time, in the record books and history.

I hope they do. The horse earned it.

Yes, I recall at the time after the Preakness, hearing that Sham had knocked out a couple baby teeth in the gate at the Derby. Don't recall it being a kick, but hey, it was decades ago.

Secretariat broke Sham's racing heart on the far turn in the Belmont. Sham ran the Derby in record time, too.
