Fastest Racehorse Ever?
We saw Seabiscuit last night which led to this question... I don't see anything at Guinness and other searches turn up garbage. So does anyone know?

Secretariat is by far the fastest that ever lived, and its unlikely to ever have has record beaten.
The reason is that when he died the autopsy revealed that he was bascially a freak of the good kind, his heart was far larger than any horse is supposed to have. Armed with a supersized ticker, he walked past his opponents. If you haven't seen the film of his greatest win where he won by something like 1/8 mile (you couldn't even see the #2 horse) you missed the greatest race in history.

Phar Lap actually shared a nickname with Secretariat, they were both called "Big Red". It's a shame Phar Lap died when he did, he could have taken the whole world by storm. I'm as sure as most other people that he was poisoned. We have to remember other great horses in history though.. Kelso, Northern Dancer, Man-O-War, and many others. Secretariat was definitely one of the greats.. |
