And Sports Illustrated honored him by reprinting the best article I have ever read in the magazine… “ Pure Heart”. If you’ve never read it, Google ‘ Bill Nack Pure Heart’ immediately!
Anything that appears on my page that has to do with secretariat I watch. Because I miss him. The horse that God made. The best racer, the best looking, the smartest. I get goosebumps when I watch him race, even when he’s just walking around
Wait.... Penny and Lucien.... *giggle* oh my goodness!! Penny had a bad temper...? They're making her sound abusive. It saddens me if that is the case about her; in a way, though, it is like a child's storybook tale: strong, beautiful and intelligent girl is sat upon by the cultural conventions of her time, until a magical being comes into her life and teaches her to be a princess... RIP to all of them.
The movie said it all he was born at midnight he stood right within minutes that horse is the goat of animal athletes THE MOON AND STARS AND PLANETS WERE ALIGNED WHEN SECRTARIET WAS BORN AND I BELIEVE THAT HE GUIDED WITH WINGS
LOL remember in the movie when the reporter said Penny loved talking about herself. She was Red's voice. He had so much love that he just took it to the track and ran with it. Love PennyXRedXEddieXLucianXRonX(theFatherssecretary)
I learned a lot from this interview i didn't know that Penny & Lucien had a romantic relationship & that Mr knack was banned from visiting the farm. Does anyone have more information on this or do i have it wrong .
Penny Chenery gets angry and it becomes a topic 😂. She’s running a multimillion dollar thoroughbred breeding & racing operation, is college educated. Yet in the 70s, women still had not achieved equality with men in many areas, such as the workplace. In many states, women could not get credit cards, make wills, or own property without a husband. Basic rights, such as serving on juries, were not given to women. Maybe her anger had more to do with the requirement for women to fight their way through everything rather than treating them with respect, dignity and equality. Women have backbones. They can stand up on their own. Nobody has the right to judge others. Especially others whose rights didn’t exist. Patriarchal beliefs are toxic and designed to TAKE what doesn’t belong to another.
My mom, who was a divorced, single mother, had an awful time trying to get a mortgage to buy a house in the late 60s. The realtor for the seller, who was male, had to go to bat for her with the bank for her to get the loan.
I agree and disagree as I feel it was more poor organisation on ending such a wonderful exchange. I guess you had to be there to fully understand, but I don’t feel it was meant with any malice or fore thought. It just had come to the end.
