∙ 10y agoSecretariat was a very large and powerful horse, with a 25 foot stride. He was a son of the speedy Bold Ruler, who often threw his speed into his offspring, which made him the top sire for years. Also, Secretariat's heart was larger than most other horses, a condition passed down from mother to son.
