  • My favorite part of the 2010 Disney Movie Secretariat, the Belmont Stakes where Secretariat wins the race by 31 lengths, and sets a world record time on dirt of 2 minutes and 24 seconds flat for a mile and 1/2, breaking the track record by 2 and 3/5 seconds. That victory earned Secretariat the triple crown. Secretariat is considered the greatest racehorse ever and this was his greatest race. This was an almost supernatural performance by Secretariat, awe inspiring.

Said that Track Record & Winning Time He Set. Would Never be Beaten. Dad RIP passed Away in 1998, and that Winning Time has STILL Never been Beaten.
    Secretariat Truly was A Mythical, & Remarkable Horse 🐴🐎 with a Winning Attitude that put Him So Far Above His, Competition? That He was Almost immortal in His Lifetime.

    They did an admirable job of recreating this miracle run but the original footage is what still raises the goosebumps and elicits the tears.

      Personally I think they butchered the Belmont. So many things were wrong with that seen from the race to the call of the race. The used Chic Anderson's words but it sounded so silly coming from whoever that voice was. I think they could have gotten permission to use his actual call but as I have heard they never asked fot it or for permission to use his words.
      Watching the actual footage is a million times better in my opinion and the only thing that might top that Belmont was Secretariat's Preakness run. His sudden burst of speed in that one was amazing.

    • @rickbateman2401

      I agree with Bobbywise2313’s comment - they did the same thing to this scene as they did in the last race scene in the Seabiscuit movie - they had well documented footage and still butchered the movie version. By the 3/4 mile mark, Secretariat had started to pull away. By the mile marker, Sham was being caught by the other horses and Secretariat was pulling away.

    I've just been watching video after video and documentary after documentary (and just purchased a blueray version of Penny and Red: The Owner of Secretariat", can't wait to watch it), and just learning all I can about this great horse and those around him, remembering it all very vividly on TV when I was 14. Frequently, and especially if I'm having a rough day, I will just watch the original race videos, all of them, sometimes over and over, and especially the Belmont. (BTW, Ronnie Turcot said Secretariat was running easy the whole time, not straining.) Many here have mentioned his heart size, which was true, but I've learned that his bone structure, especially his lower legs, were a little shorter, but extremely thick, which also made it possible for him to train as he did and run as he did without injury. (Sham actually suffered an injury there at about the half way point of the Belmont, which is why he finished last.) He was also a little shorter front to back, which made him able to run the turns far better than most, as at the Preakness when he flew by everyone on the first turn. (Yet he had one of the longest strides ever. If you watch the real races, at times it seems like his legs are moving slower than the other horses because of this, when he was actually moving faster.) The harder he trained, the faster he was able to run, but over and over I've read that a normal horse today would break down completely after just a couple weeks, and though the horses then would do better, they also could not do anything like that. He truly was "The Horse That God Built". While Ron Turcotte said Sham's trainer "Pancho" was not like how he was presented, I saw one video by Bill Nack that said he was saying a lot of stuff about Lucian Loren making excuses (I'm assuming about the pre Kentucky Derby loss where he placed 3rd, and Sham placed second), etc, and he thought that his portrayal as the bad guy was actually pretty fair. I've also read a bunch of the comments here, and I agreed with all of them!

    What comes to the greatest horse out in history it depends the criteria one uses... To me, it's not about winning, but to have the greatest heart... Secretariat, Ruffian, and Seabiscuit all excelled in that department, and then there are so many horses I don't know about.

    It's weird. Even before the movie was out, most of the scenes of the Belmont Race were up on UA-cam already...
    But oh well. Good ol' Disney has a sense for epic clips. Shown perfectly in Secretariat.

      I enjoyed the movie but this scene did not do the real thing justice. Chic Anderson's call was so much better.
      But hearing this guy use Mr. Anderson's words was just wrong.
      The most iconic sports call ever can be summed up with the words, " he is moving like a tremendous machine".

      Yes the actual footage with Chic Anderson's call is a lot better. I am not saying this is a bad movie. In fact I enjoyed this movie. But the Belmont scene did not do justice to the real thing.
      I have wondered who played Big Red in this film. It had to be hard to play such a great athlete with an enormous personality. Clearly the actor playing the part could not match Big Reds beauty and power but I think he did very good.
      In fact, I found myself forgetting I was watching an an actor portraying Big Red. I think perhaps he should should have been nominated for an Oscar.

      @@bobbywise2313 He was gorgeous. And he was a ham. I've collected every book written about him. I loved reading the book from Eddie. He was closer to Red than anyone. He talked about how smart he was and how Red would play with him. My dad went to visit Secretariat at Claiborne Farm after he was retired and said he was magnificent. Said he put on a show when he knew he was being watched. My dad met Seth Hancock that day and said he was a good man.

      @@maggiemae6671 I need to get that book. Eddie definitely spent more time with him than anyone. What an incredible job that must have been. He had countless hours with Big Red when no one else was around. I have seen some documentaries in which Eddie spoke of Secretariat. He was described as having an almost human personality.
      I told my wife that one day we are going to Claiborne farms so I can see his grave and observe his old stomping ground. I wish I would have got to see Big Red in person but thank God for all the videos we have.
      I have recently purchased some Secretariat artwork as well as a t-shirt and cap. My wife thinks I am crazy and ask why I am obsessed with that horse. I don't think it is an obsession myself. I just really have an admiration for him and what he brought to the USA in a time when it needed a hero. God knows we could use another Secretariat now. But I don't think we will see one again in my lifetime. Ok maybe it borders on obsession. Lol

    I was 17 years old and living in a depress community in Jamaica when I first heard of Secretariat. I was always a turfite and I have an innate love for horse racing. Secretariat is a once in a lifetime race horse and there is none that can be compare to him. Seabiscuit was good, Phar Lap was fantastic, Man O" War was awesome but Secretariat was truly great,an awesome, outstanding and amazing race horse. If I knew he would be this revere later in life I would have kept my winning ticket.
