You can't separate Bill Nack from Secretariat - RIP both of you,
-
It was a mystical confluence of supreme talent - Bill Nack's writing, and Secretariat's speed and endurance. I don't think anyyone else could have written so eloquently, lyrically, poetically about Secretariat's life and death.
-
The doctor said that he had never seen a heart that was so abnormally large yet perfect.
-
Secretariat always makes me teary eyed and goosebumps still 40 years later
-
He represented goodness and that’s what you described so beautifully. Thank you sir this was very important to all of us
-
What a wonderful story and only Bill Nack could tell it so well. Secretariat was just amazing and he new it he really did. He was so beautiful inside and out. When I feel depressed I watch the Belmont race of 1973 Secretariat and I just smile That horse will never know just how many peoples lives he touched then and still is now Thank You Bill Nack and Secretariat so much both Rest In Peace your the greatest race horse that has ever lived and Bill yours is the best story.

I remember hearing of Secretariat's death. I wasn't a racing fan then, had no clue about the sport, but I remembered seeing Secretariat in Kentucky and in Baltimore and in New York. I grieved for him and I cried.

Thank you so much telling the story of Big Red he will always be missed, you brought a few tears just talking about him, to me he was the best Racehorse that ever lived, he was a Legend,& I will always watch the clips of him in his 3 races, but to me the best one was Belmont stakes, RIP BIG RED💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

Sad that Eddy Sweat didn't get any flowers or anyone at his funeral from the Chenery family, from Bill Neck who was his friend or Lucien Laurin the train or. Eddy was a horse whispered who died penniless and have the Jockey Club Foundation pay for his funeral.

I loved this horse. He was a great one. Thanks for this informative video.
-
Secretary made the news when he passed I was devastated I cried
-
Lets face it fans, no one here tapping letters on a keyboard will in their lifetime, see a horse again as great as Secretariat ! (:
-
such passion you had regarding the sport you represented. Your love for Secretariat is very evident.
-
Big Red was also one of the very few racehorses to be buried whole, not with just the head and 4 hooves.
-
Everytime SECRETARIAT comes on I try to watch it, Have seen it dozens of times and plan to see it dozens more..! As 4 bill nack in the movie, the horse liked him... he was positive and good 4 the soul.

One of my Prize Possession is a First Edition of Mr. Nack's book
-
I always wonder why this story gets me kind of emotional. I think it’s for the reason Bill said. It reminds me of being young and a better, simpler time. This world is so different now and appears to be rapidly going down the tube.

I think s so deserving of Mr Nack to be recognized in the movie, !!!
