Watch A Side-By-Side Comparison Of American Pharaoh And Secretariat Race At Belmont
The Wall Street Journal put American Pharaoh’s 2015 Belmont Stakes Triple Crown victory alongside Secretariat’s from 1973 to see which horse would have won.
American Pharaoh is fast, but is he Secretariat fast?
No..

I don’t think we’ll ever see another horse that’s Secretariat fast.
10 years ago at 3:48 pmOn a separate note, American Pharoah’s jockey has been the jockey for two other Triple Crown contenders for the same stable recently, so I know where my money is going next year.
I wonder if the owners jerk off the jockeys before the jockeys get put down like they do for the horses, you know, so they can keep breeding those tiny little men.

10 years ago at 5:37 pmDid your pledge master castrate you to ensure the opposite?
10 years ago at 8:38 pmI’m buying a race horse, naming it Sarah Jessica Parker, and winning the triple crown
10 years ago at 3:51 pmThat’d be neat.
10 years ago at 8:25 pmIt’s nice to see a more or less fair comparison. It’s hard to compare greats of the past to modern stars in sports like Baseball, Football, and Basketball. But speed kills, and Secretariat is the GOAT (like MJ).
Interested to see how much faster Secretariat could have been if he had had another horse challenging him.
10 years ago at 4:04 pmThis pumped me the fuck up
10 years ago at 4:05 pmSame. I’m crushing hard on Secretariat.
10 years ago at 4:10 pmMoved on from little boys to horses? I guess penis size really does matter.
10 years ago at 4:22 pmThe jockeys remind him of little boys
10 years ago at 7:46 pmPretty proud that Secratariat with it’s American Owner beat Pharoah with it’s middle eastern owner who damn near said praise allah after the race.
10 years ago at 10:46 pmWhat the fuck did you just say?
10 years ago at 11:12 pmThanks Dorno, I didn’t believe that 2:26 was slower than 2:24 but you’ve found video evidence and made a believer out of me
10 years ago at 4:15 pmI’d like to see if American pharoah would match up in the derby or the Preakness
10 years ago at 4:40 pmAmerican Pharoah gets to spend the rest of his days porking other thoroughbreds. #LivingtheDream
10 years ago at 4:51 pmFYI, American Pharoah’s famed trainer, Bob Baffert, was an SAE at U of Arizona.
10 years ago at 5:03 pmSecretariat was a freak of nature. He literally took off and was only challenged by his rival Sham for the first half the race which set an incredible pace. The amazing thing is, Secretariat kept the pace the entire race. His jockey didn’t even use his whip. Secretariat was from a different universe. A fucking American legend. No horse will come close to his time at the Belmont.
