He died Today, RIP

Yah brother 💔

Arrogate foi o único cavalo que me fez lembrar do lendário Secretariat em Kentucky Derby. iniciando em último lugar para chegar em primeiro. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SB5eTuV5Hq0.html

Not doubt about it.

Agreed!

Yes! We have been spoiled

He's running again today! :)

Go watch Secretariat's races....yeah, the Belmont was great but watch the ridiculous move around the clubhouse turn of the Preakness....then watch Seattle Slew beat Affirmed...and all of Spectacular Bid's races...

Utter foolishness. You know nothing. One example of greatness that Arrogate will never even come close to: Swaps four year old season in 1957... 10 races in 6 1/2 months with a record of 8-1-0 3 track records 3 world records 6 times carrying 130 pounds Often under stout restraint and/or eased Distances from 1 mile to 1 5/8ths miles As stated, Arrogate will never approach these performances and this is but one of the great 4 year olds.

Please stop it. Be a fan. Enjoy what Arrogate did just as we enjoyed Chrome's Pacific Classic with Victor's head on the swivel just as it was in the BC Classic. Comparing eras is like taking a piece of 1958 and saying hey 2017, this is EXACTLY the way it was back then. What about track conditions and on and on and on. Would Roger Banister have beaten today's athletes EVERY TIME? Just enjoy each performance. Go Chrome. Go Arrogate! ;-)

CC time was faster in the 2016 Dubai World Cup

You're joking right Secretariat went from last to first in the Preakness. It was a great Race by arrogant but his time was actually slower than California Chrome's time the year before

24.8 first quarter no comparison to secretariat; its more like zenyatta; it has great visual appeal

To beat a horse like Gun Runner with that big a deficit . . . unbelievable. Too bad that was his swan song. The most brilliant and short career in horse racing history.

One of the best ever for sure but saying Secratariat couldn't do it is absurd, did you watch the 1973 Belmont?

Easy there. It was a GREAT performance, but your comment is like saying Lebron is better than Jordan simply because Lebron has a dominate game and dunks all over the place or scores 1/2 the teams points for that game. Great, great horse with an epic performance, but mentioning in the same conversation with Secretariat is just crazy.

I agree. A lot of people say he was injured but in my opinion he just wasn't interested in racing anymore, he gave absolutely everything he had in this race.

@@OfficialMuffiin I agree. I call it 'burned'.

+Joseph Well said Joseph, could not have said it better, he is something else.

Juddmonte wants back to back BC Classic wins with him, he will run at least two more times, baring injury. They are going to lay him up for a few months first.

I do have to add that despite my appreciation of Gun Runner's performance and his consistency the level of competition against Arrogate was sub-par. A perfect comparison to gauge the strength of competition was last years BC Distaff. Stellar Wind breaks slowly and loses absolutely any chance against the likes of Beholder, who she had beaten recently twice before, and Songbird. 3 reigning Eclipse award champions in the same race though is pretty rare too.

its a saudi horse not owned by any companies if jockey mike smith !!!!!Arabian horse not even american !

How you going to mention any other Travers then the one Arrogate won in track record time and the only time 1 1/4 has been eclipsed at Saratoga?

Arrogate's final quarter in the Travers: 23.84, Holy Bull's final quarter in the Travers: 26.06, I'll give you that the pace was slightly faster for the first 6f but after that Arrogate was trashing his fractions.

It's not a knee jerk, he's a two time track record holder and has won the world's three richest races, he's a phenom.

AnnaNicolesDeathbed in only four races he's done this... beat The 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th place finishers of the Kentucky Derby 2 Preakness winners The 1st and 2nd place finishers of the Belmont Stakes The 1st and 2nd place finishers of the Dubai World Cup 2 Santa Anita Handicap winners A Pacific Classic winner A Jockey Club Gold Cup winner A Travers Stakes winner A Met Mile winner A Whitney Stakes winner A Woodward Stakes winner A Stephen Foster winner A Cigar Mile winner A Haskell Invitational winner A Queens Plate winner 2 Clark Handicap winners 2 UAE Derby winners 2 group I winners in Japan 2 group I winners in Dubai A Group I winner in Argentina and Chile A Group winner in England and Turkey

I don't know if your caps lock button is broken or something, but typing in caps sure is annoying, I digress. You're confusing longevity with brilliance, regardlessly as track records get faster they become harder to break, so every time they are broken it becomes less likely that it will happen. That's not Kelso's fault, but it's why the only record he still holds is at 2miles, a distance no one runs anymore. Kelso had an amazing and long career, but if i had to pick one horse for one race it wouldn't be him, don't forget, he did lose 24 times.

The difference being last to first was Zenyatta's game. This horse was taken completely out of his game right out of the gate, adapted to it with the help of his marvelous rider, and won going away. The equivalent for Zenyatta would be for her to go out to set a fast pace and take them wire to wire. This is a very rare kind of win, and this is a very rare kind of horse.

He did Zenyatta better than Zenyatta did it.

Zenyatta is not one of the top 30 horses of all time....she race 95% of her races on the poly-track in Los Angeles, barely beat a couple of decent, but not great fillies and then she got beat by a very average Blame....imagine what American Pharoah, Secretariat, Seattle Slew, Affirmed all would do to Blame ? He'd get dusted

@@Iwastherein1969 all of those horses would run laps around the track and still beat Blame

I like you. haha

who didn't make it? You must be a Chromie...

Again, who didn't make it? Shaman Ghost ran 14 days ago so he wasn't coming and he has already seen Arrogate's ass.

Neolithic has never won a stakes and is still a top 5 dirt router in NA, he's ran third in this race and the Pegasus.

Here's for ignorance, remind me, how many Graded stakes are even ran at 1 1/4 in NA in a calendar year? Seeing as Arrogate won two of them I doubt there were many left.

He said 10f, plus i was being facetious, I know how few 10f graded stakes on dirt there are.

I'm so excited for Arrogate and Songbirds daughter to race, she has two amazing horses' hoofprints to fill.

Unfortunately... But some horses *just hate losing* 💛

Me too

Guess what? He died June 2nd, 4 days ago. I don't live under a rock.

Unbridled Song was a bit of a head case too... Arrogate seems to have a cool head and a massive heart...

You dont even understand how BSF's and TF are derived and their overall subjectivity. Keep citing things you do not understand.

I'm not going to enter into this argument with you two. But I will say this to you... you are rude, arrogant, self-absorbed, and extremely proud of yourself. Apparently you've never bothered to learn how to make your point without resorting to insults and demeaning comments. You don't seem to realize that when you act that way, you lose any and all credibility you might have had. Instead of making yourself look all wise and knowing, what you've actually done is to make yourself look like a whiny toddler. Grow up. And by the way... you don't know as much about the sport as you think you do.

Shared Belief's spirit seems to be with this one. Arrogate is just amazing like he was.

Yes only four major wins. I agree 4 wins isn't enough to conclude that Arrogate is the greatest ever, but the horses he has beaten and the way he has done it certainly ranks him near the top. He beat the best three-year-olds of his generation in the Travers- in record time no-less. He beat an incredibly talented California Chrome at the peak of his career in the Breeders Cup Classic. In the Classic he also beat grade 1 winners Frosted, Shaman Ghost, and Melatonin. He defeated Shaman Ghost and California Chrome (discounting Chromes off-form) once again in the Pegasus. He has now defeated fellow Travers winner Keen Ice not once- but three times. Also twice defeated Jockey Club Gold Cup winner Hoppertunity. Gun Runner should not be discredited either as he is an incredibly consistent horse who had a dream trip in Dubai just now. Arrogate has won on the lead, stalking, from just off the pace, and now closing from the back of the pack- horses are creatures of habit and don't just do that on an every day basis. No he shouldn't be ranked above the likes of Secretariat yet, but he has surely earned the merit to be counted among the all time greats.

There is no need to write a novella to try and support your point of view. There is no need to point to certain issues that are obvious. It proves nothing. The utter foolishness in your comment shows that you truly know absolutely nothing about horse racing. My sincere congratulations.

Clearly haven't seen Dancing Brave's win in the Arc, most probably the best race in the world and that year was the strongest ever edition of it.

I was 12 when Dancing Brave won the Arc and don't remember watching the race live. Was talking about personal experience of watching the event. DB was, of course, an all time great but it is interesting that appreciation of his achievements have changed over time... garethflynn.com/curious_case_dancing_braves_official_rating.html

The notion of not winning a TC means zip is an absurd comment. Arrogate has now won 4 races, and very impressively, but 4 wins does not make a horse immortal.

Yes...4 wins makes him the greatest ever. You must be kidding. Further, you discredit the accomplishment of a TC winner with your comment.

4 major races, 7 total wins.

Gladiator Z56 easy there!..greatest ever??...

"22 Dubai world cups and that I think would rate equally as the most spectacular!"

He died Today, RIP

I hope too
