Tour Claiborne Farm 

Had the pleasure of being toured by John, earlier this year. Loved your , obviously hearing bout Secretariat and stories . Gorgeous horses. Beautiful facilities .

I’m always emotional when I see the graveyard; particularly Secretariat’s grave, though I have never been to Claiborne. I also broke down when seeing Man O’ War’s burial site years ago. There is a video record of his funeral in 1947.

I was there in 1989 and got to see so many of the greats in the stallion barn, including Secretariat. I received a lock of his mane from his groom, Bobby Anderson. I still have it with the light blue butcher paper wrapping it. Big Red died about nine or ten weeks after my visit.

My mother used to take me with my Godfather to Saratoga each year. My Grandparents had a Summer Home in nearby Saugherties NY. My Godfather is gone about 25 years, my mother passed away in 2009. They both would have loved this tour. This was a lovely tour.

This was awesome!

What beautiful stallions!😍 I had no knowledge about them. thanks for the video!

That’s my boy! War of Will! Love him to the moon and back xoxo. My favorite farm too!

This is just wonderful! Thank you for posting.

I have heard so many opinions over the years about the horse in general. Are they considered smart ? BTW, I really enjoyed this story, the gentleman certainly knows his business. Need a better microphone to block the wind, but no biggie. Very informative documentary. I can't imagine the $$$ it takes to operate such a large scale operation !

I wonder who figured out horses liked peppermints? My mare loves them I think she would eat fifty.

Will you be doing another live tour soon?

You passed right by Pulpit the sire of Tapit.

22:11 Gibs me mints!!

Really, ya should have edited out the coughing and sniffing from the filmer, or simply stopped and let the poor thing have their nasal/lung process in private.🤧 Otherwise, it was lovely to get the feel of the place, hear the birds...
