Hello Friends
I am a life long fan of the greatest race horse ever-MAN O WAR=!!!!But on seeing some research on the racing histories of the second greatest race horse of all time-SECRETARIAT-I am humbled to have to admit that according to the facts that it does appear that Secretariat does seem to come out on top according to his career standings. But once again I have a question:
I have heard that the race tracks today are at least a full five seconds than they were in Man O War's day. If this is true than how does the records that Man O War set in his day measure up to Secretariat's??? I have asked this question several times and no one seems to want to send me an answer. If I am wrong about the track timing someone please let me know so I can stop trying to figure out the answers myself. But if this is true than I would think that theoretically you would take 5 or so seconds off his time and then compare to Secretariat. This is of course all conjecture and theory but I sure would like to hear from someone out there who might know something about this.
