Secretariat (horse)From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Secretariat (March 30, 1970 – October 4, 1989) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse that in 1973 became the first U.S. Triple Crown winner in 25 years. He set race records in all three events in the series – the Kentucky Derby (1:59 2/5), the Preakness Stakes (1:53), and the Belmont Stakes (2:24) – records that still stand today[update].[2][3] He is considered to be one of the greatest Thoroughbreds of all time. In 1999, ESPN ranked Secretariat the 35th-best athlete of the 20th century, the highest-ranking racehorse on the list.[4] He ranked second behind Man o' War in The Blood-Horse's List of the Top 100 U.S. Racehorses of the 20th Century.[5] He was also ranked second behind Man o' War by a six-member panel of experts assembled by the Associated Press.[6] He was also ranked second behind Man o' War by a Sports Illustrated panel of seven experts.[7]
Secretariat was sired by Bold Ruler out of Somethingroyal, by Princequillo. He was foaled at The Meadow in Caroline County, Virginia. Like his famous predecessor Man o' War, Secretariat was a large chestnut colt, and was given the same nickname, "Big Red". Secretariat's grandsire, Nasrullah, is also the great-great-grandsire of 1977 Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew.
Owned by Penny Chenery, also known as Penny Tweedy, he was trained by Lucien Laurin, and mainly ridden by Canadian jockey Ron Turcotte, along with apprentice jockey Paul Feliciano (first two races) and veteran Eddie Maple (last race). He raced in Chenery's Meadow Farm Stable's blue-and-white-checkered colors. His groom was Eddie Sweat, and his exercise riders were Charlie Davis[8] and Jim Gaffney, who died on June 3, 2010.[9]
Secretariat stood about 16.2 hands (66 inches, 168 cm) tall and weighed 1,175 lb (533 kg), with a 75-inch girth, in his racing prime.

秘书处（Secretariat、1970年 - 1989年）是美国生产及训练的纯种竞赛马匹，以竞赛生涯的成绩最为闻名，其中以世界纪录时间、31马位大胜于贝蒙锦标最为人津津乐道。
竞赛生涯曾赢得多个一级赛锦标，其中美国三冠大赛中的肯塔基打吡，必利是锦标及贝蒙锦标，成为1973年美国三冠马王。在尾关贝蒙锦标甚至以31个马位大胜，更打破了世界纪录时间（2分24秒正）。
秘书处的配种成绩尚算不俗，相比父系而言，作为母父系（外祖父）则更为出色，如A.P. Indy、Chief's Crown、风暴猫等的一级竞赛马及种马都以秘书处为外祖父。
