Secretariat is widely regarded as the fastest race horse in history. In 1973, he won the Triple Crown, setting track records in the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, and Belmont Stakes that still stand today.
It is quite possible if another great horse comes along. No horse has won the Triple Crown since Affirmed in 1978. That's 33 years ago.

No. He was put down on 10/4/1989 (he was born on 3/10/1970). He had developed "laminitis" - the same condition that killed Barbaro.Sorry.No, Secretariat (Big Red) was euthanized on October 4th, 1989 to spare him of the pain inflicted from being diagnosed with Laminitis, an equine foot disease. He was 19.He may have died at the age of 19 but still here in 2011he is still the only horse that has won the Triple Crown since 25 years before Secatariat

Big Red Gum was released by the William Wrigley Jr. Company in 1976, 3 years after the race horse "Secretariat" had won the Triple Crown. It was a common practice at that time for candy to bear the name of famous people. (Remember the ongoing advertisement with all the Olympians on the front of the Total cereal box?) The horse's nickname was "Big Red" & it had stamina. In their jingle for Big Red gum, the Wrigley company mentions how it has "long-lasting freshness"...a kind of 'candy stamina' , if you will. The time tables are right & so it is my firm belief that the gum was named after the horse....& it would certainly make since as both did, indeed, live up to their reputation for stamina!!

Abdullah became the heir apparent in 2004, and was given the title of crown prince in 2009. Since reaching the age of majority in 2012, He has functioned as regent on a number of occasions.
Actually that is incorrect. The name of the horse is Major. She had Major the horse since she was a little girl, too.
