   @bigfred3217 Margin? You dare bring up MARGIN? Secretariat won the Belmont by 31 fucking lengths. Also, dumbshit, even when given the chance, BARBARO DID NOT BEAT SECRETARIAT’S STILL-STANDING KENTUCKY DERBY SPEED RECORD. DO NOT piss me off, you stupid fucking bitch.

   @bigfred3217 btw…I’m not a fucking idiot. I lived in Kentucky for 11 years, so I think I know what I’m talking about. Also, your spelling and grammer sucks, which hints you are totally stupid and have no idea what the hell you’re talking about. My Advice: SHUT THE FUCK UP:]]

   sorry Backstretch - Big Fred is right - he ran the fastest quarter pole since Secretariet and do we really need the vulgarity?

   Big Fred is most certainly wrong. It doesn’t matter if he ran the LAST pole faster. Secretariat still ran all the OTHER poles faster, so he’d still win. Also, speed record is a major factor. Barbaro’s win was only 2:01.36, whereas Secretariat’s was 1:59.40, which is a still standing record. Overall, if Barbaro and Secretariat were in the Kentucky Derby together, Secretariat would win hands down.

    @BrennanandBoothlove Well he was injured in that last race so technically he lost didn’t he? Or does it not count because he pulled up and didn’t actually cross the finish line?

    This should have been our TC winner. In the stretch he just looks like a machine.

    Man…why did Barbaro die? I bet everything that he was going to be the TC winner in 2006. At the Derby, he was STILL pulling away when he crossed the finish line and the field he was up against wasn’t a weak field either. He went in 6-0 I believe. He was the modern-day Secretariat.
