I'm sure Secretariat fans might disagree. Or Spectacular Bid's 1:57 4/5. Or Count Fleet's Belmont. Or any number of other top performances.

yeah, not to mention my namesake....

yet this remarkable animal held the fastest record for 1 mile in the world: 1:32 1/5, achieved on August 24, 1968 when he ran in the Washington Park Handicap at Arlington Park. On that day, he carried 134 pounds.
