I missed the anniversary by a week or so, but for those who never saw Secretariat's 1973 Belmont, check it out. He still holds the track record to this day and it's a world record for the fastest time ever recorded on a dirt track.

Check out his still standing track record at the Kentucky Derby, too.

And, of course, his Preakness, which at the time was a track record and later tied by 3 horses until it was broken in 1991.

I hope you all enjoy them as much as I do. I'm not into horse racing, but this horse was something special. In fact, it's the only non human that made ESPN's top 50 sports figures of the century!
