Racing! Secretariat and Citation top Triple Crown rankings

Share via

Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as we wait to crown Justify as a Triple Crown winner.

By now, you’ve figured out how the Triple Crown rankings were going to finish. And you probably had a pretty good idea who was going to win before it even started. But it’s been a fun journey for me and I hope you enjoyed the excursion as well. So, now, drumroll, the final two in the countdown.

2. Citation (1948) 121 points

Citation may have finished second in the Triple Crown rankings, but his 3-year-old season seems impossible to top. He won 19 of 20 races, including a 16-race win streak that encompassed the Triple Crown races. Panelist Jon White said this about his year: “What Citation did as a 3-year-old is still mind boggling. Not only did he sweep the Triple Crown, he set a track record for 1 1/4 miles in the Jersey Stakes at Garden State Park between the Preakness and Belmont. Ron McAnally, who trained the great John Henry, was at Garden State the day Citation won the Jersey Stakes, calling it one of the most impressive races he has ever seen a horse run.”

Panelist Tim Wilkin made this case: “He won three Triple Crown races by 17 lengths, won 32 of 45 starts, only off the board once, a clear second to Big Red.” And voter Rick Hammerle called him: “The best of four Triple Crown winners in the 1940s.”

Three of the panelists voted him fourth, one had him third and seven had him in his final spot of second.

Citation’s rise in racing could be foreshadowed early as he won eight if his nine starts as a 2-year-old. His only loss came in the Washington Park Futurity where he lost to stablemate Bewitch.

His 3-year-old career started with four straight wins at Hialeah Park, three of them stakes, when his jockey Al Snider drowned in a fishing accident near the Florida Keys. Eddie Arcaro was hired to replace Snider and in his first race finished second in the Chesapeake Trial Stakes at now defunct track Havre de Grace, located in Maryland halfway between Washington D.C. and Philadelphia.

Citation, and trainer Ben Jones, avenged the loss and won the Chesapeake Stakes, what would be the first of 15 straight wins. He brushed up his form by winning the Derby Trial Stakes and then it was on to the first Saturday in May. Citation’s reputation was such that the colt only had five challengers and the track only allowed win betting. His stablemate Coaltown went to the lead but Citation stalked until Arcaro asked him exiting the far turn and he breezed to a 3 ½-length win. Arcaro gave part of his purse money to Snider’s widow.

The Preakness was an even more select field of four. Citation won by 5 ½ in what was little more than a paid workout. He could have won by much more. Just for good measure he won the Jersey Stakes before moving on to the Belmont.

It was a field of eight at the Belmont Stakes. Citation stumbled coming out of the gate but quickly went to the lead. He ran honest fractions through most of the race but then turned it on midway through the far turn. He entered the stretch leading by five lengths and coasted to an eight-length win. Here’s a collection of the three races.

Citation didn’t lose the rest of the year. He had problems with arthritis and sat out all of 1949. Calumet Farms brought him back in 1950 wanting him to be the first horse to win $1 million lifetime. He had $865,150 to that point. After winning his first race back at Santa Anita, his win streak stopped at 16 when he finished second in the San Antonio Handicap, carrying more weight than his opponents. He then finished second in the Santa Anita Handicap and San Juan Capistrano Handicap.

He was brought back for one more season at age 6, still short of $1 million. It was there that he finished out of the money for the first time in his career in the Hollywood Premiere Handicap. He eventually got back to winning and became the first horse to earn $1 million. He even won the Hollywood Gold Cup in his final year of racing.

He finished his career with 45 starts, 32 wins, 10 places and two shows. He earned $1,085,760.

Citation couldn’t duplicate his success running as a stallion, although he did sire 1956 Preakness winner Fabius. He died in 1970 at age 25.

Still want more on Citation, here’s a 45-minute documentary from ESPN.

1. Secretariat (1973) 11 first place votes, 154 points

Was there really any doubt? In a unanimous vote of our panel, Secretariat was named the best Triple Crown winner ever. Here’s what some our panelists had to say:

Rick Hammerle: “Won the Belmont by 31 lengths, ‘like a tremendous machine.’ Horse that got me into horse racing.”

Jay Privman: “He set track records in all three races, including a Beamonesque Belmont. The gold standard.”

Jon White: “There is no question in my mind that Secretariat deserves to be No. 1. In one of the most amazing accomplishments in racing history, all these years after he swept the Triple Crown, Secretariat has the distinction of having run the fastest Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont in history.

Tim Wilkin: “The best horse to ever live, no one will ever touch his 31-length romp in the Belmont Stakes.”

Those of you who have seen the 2010 movie must remember it’s a Disney biopic, meaning all you can count on being true is that there was a horse named Secretariat and he won the Triple Crown. So, don’t get caught up in all the imaginary subplots. Steven Crist of the Daily Racing Form did this review of the film’s accuracy.

He was a massive horse when fully grown at 16.2 hands (66 inches) and carried the nickname “Big Red.” It was his size that might have been a contributor to his success. When they did his necropsy, it was discovered that he had a heart that was about 2 ½ times the size of a normal horse heart. That increased ability to supply the muscles with oxygenated blood might explain his performance in the Belmont and aided him in many races.

In his very first race on July 4, 1972, he finished fourth in a field of 12 at Aqueduct. In his remaining eight races as a 2-year-old, no horse crossed the finish line in front of him. Now, he only got credit for wins in seven of those races, because he was disqualified to second in the Champagne Stakes for interference.

Trainer Lucien Laurin sent Secretariat to Florida for the winter but raced him in New York. He had only three preps before the Kentucky Derby, which was a light schedule in the 1970s but the standard for today. He won the Bay Shore Stakes and the Gotham Stakes but finished third in the Wood Memorial. It was discovered he had an abscess in his mouth and pulling on the bit hurt.

In the Kentucky Derby, he broke slowly and ran the first half of the race near the back of the pack. On the backstretch and through the far turn he started picking off horses and pulled even with Sham entering the stretch, they ran side by side until Secretariat pulled ahead and kept going, winning by 2 ½ lengths. The time of 1:59 2/5 was the first time the Derby was run in less than two minutes. Each of his quarter miles was faster than the previous one, going the final in 23 seconds. There was no sign of tiring. Watch the race here.

In the Preakness, Secretariat broke last and jockey Ron Turcotte was content to stay back through the early part of the race. But on the first turn, Turcotte thought the fractions were a little too slow and in a massive charge went to the front in seemingly a matter of seconds. He just glided around the track the rest of the way and he won by the same 2 ½ lengths. Watch race here.

By this point, Secretariat was becoming a national celebrity appearing on many magazine covers.

The story of his Belmont win has been well told. Secretariat and Sham went out to the lead and ran a blistering 46 1/5 second for the first half mile of the 1 ½-mile race. Nearing the far turn, Sham had no more and Secretariat started lengthening his lead. Track announcer Chick Anderson uttered the famous phrase, “He is moving like a tremendous machine.”

With a quarter-mile to go, his time was 1:59, faster than he won the Kentucky Derby. The 31-length margin marks this as the greatest performance by a horse in history. The picture of Turcotte looking back underneath his arm entering the stretch remains one of the iconic images in the sport. Watch race here.

Secretariat raced nine more times, winning six of them. He also had two seconds and a third. His last race was Oct. 28 of that year, winning a 1 5/8-mile turf race at Woodbine by 6 ½ lengths. Watch race here.

Secretariat went on to a successful career as a stallion, but like many of the other Triple Crown winners, produced better broodmares than colts. In 1989, he contracted laminitis, a painful condition where the top of the hoof can no longer support to bone of the leg. After unsuccessfully treating it, he was euthanized at age 19.

We can’t thank our panel enough for the thought they put into their selections. It was composed of horse racing experts, journalists and racing secretaries. It members are Rick Hammerle, racing secretary at Santa Anita; Steve Haskin, racing author and columnist at the BloodHorse; David Jerkens, racing secretary at Del Mar; Tim Layden, turf writer at Sports Illustrated; Tom Pedulla, lead writer for America’s Best Racing; Jay Privman, national correspondent for the Daly Racing Form; Jeff Siegel, veteran horseman and lead commentator at XBTV.com; Childs Walker, turf writer at the Baltimore Sun; Alicia Wincze Hughes, racing editor at the BloodHorse; Jon White, racing historian and morning-line maker at Santa Anita and Tim Wilkin, turf writer at the Albany Times Union.

Vote totals were 14 points for first place, 12 for second, 10 for third, and then one point less in descending order.

Our handicapping lesson

Here’s our weekly contribution from Rob Henie of the WCHR (West Coast Handicapping Report) and the ECHR (East Coast Handicapping Report). The thinking is if you can know and understand the strategies, it will make you a better handicapper.

But, today, we’re going to do something a little different and give you his case for Justify winning the Belmont Stakes. Take it away, Rob.

“We've been so surprised by the negativity and doubt with regards to Justify’s Preakness win. So, he didn't win by 6 lengths, which, think about it, is basically the premise for the doubt of many. After all, if he had won by many lengths, he'd be the guaranteed next big thing, but a narrow victory with others closing, and he's now viewed with a hint skepticism?

“Here's our take (which is the shortest, and by the way, best one):

“First, he broke his maiden on Feb. 18th. Uh, people, think about this, he BROKE HIS MAIDEN JUST OVER 3 MONTHS AGO. He then followed that with your ‘basic’ allowance win, SA Derby win, how about a Kentucky Derby win, and, oh, throw in a Preakness win why you're at it. During that Pimlico win, he overcame a sticky track, while being eyeballed the entire way by last year's BC Juvenile winner Good Magic, before putting him away at the top of the lane. Then, he was forced to deal with those who found themselves in an advantageous position of running on late, yet they still couldn’t out finish this beast named Justify.

“Will Justify win the Belmont? My answer is an emphatic YES. Actually, I don't believe he's just gonna win, I think he'll win like the Triple Crown champ he’s soon to be, and since I'm never one to mince words or shy from ‘making the call,’ I'll emphatically state: JUSTIFY WILL WIN THE BELMONT BY A MARGIN OF 7 LENGTHS OR MORE.

More on the Belmont

We can’t be everywhere, so with the help of the NYRA Press Office here’s a quick spin around what’s going on at the backstretch.

--Gronkowski, the horse, is expected to meet Gronkowski, the man, on Saturday afternoon. Trainer Chad Brown will set up a brief meeting with New England Patriot Rob Gronkowski before the colt runs in the Belmont Stakes. “Any time we can bring some positive publicity to this great sport we work in, it's a great thing,” Brown said. “I really hope this horse has success tomorrow because I think it can be a great thing all around. To meet one of the all-time great tight ends is exciting for me and is a nice little perk.”

--Tenfold jogged around the one-mile Belmont training track on Friday morning. Trainer Steve Asmussen came in from Kentucky for the exercise. “He's a beautiful horse,” Asmussen said. “He's got a great frame, a really nice way of going. Being here at the races [Thursday] it was a little concerning because the racetrack was pretty dry. As big as he is, hopefully the racetrack is a little tighter for Saturday afternoon. But he's coming into it in very good physical shape.”

--All systems are go for likely second-favorite Hofburg. “We had a good morning training all the way around,” said trainer Bill Mott. “He seems to still be going around the racetrack good. You just hope that you're dealing with a horse that's genetically capable of dealing with the mile and a half. I think we have that.”

--Blended Citizen owner Stephen Young is happy with the $85,000 purchase. “We're lucky to have him,” Young said. “We have a budget of $100,000, and the only reason we got him is because he was a really late foal. It took him a while to mature, and [trainer] Doug [O’Neill] was real good, and as patient as he could be with him. When he and [assistant trainer] Leandro [Mora] put the blinkers on him, he got a little bit better then got a little bit better on his own after that. He’s going to be competitive, I think. I mean, Justify might get a 48 opening half, and he might be sitting back there 15 lengths behind after the race, but you have to run and find out.”

--Free Drop Billy galloped around the 1 ½-mile main Belmont track on Friday morning. Trainer Dale Romans understands the effort it would take to win this race. “[Justify] has to beat himself,” Romans said. “We all know it. I think that he's the best horse, but he might not be able to go a mile and a half. He might go too fast early. A lot of things can happen. We've seen a lot of horses come in here that looked like there was no way they could lose, and get beat.

“It's good to be here. It's a showcase, but we're here to beat him. We're a long shot, but I think we're a live long shot. There are a lot of reasons to be here, including you've got to make him earn it. It's not worth it if he doesn't earn it.”

Santa Anita review

Law Abidin Citizen was able to get up over a competitive field to win Friday’s allowance feature, a $63,000 allowance down the hill at 6 ½ furlongs. He won by ¾ of a length with Tiago Pereira in the saddle. The 4-year-old gelding paid $17.80, $8.20 and $4.00.

“He’s a really nice horse, but he’s been a little inconsistent,” winning trainer Mark Glatt told Mike Willman of Santa Anita. “He’s had a few things crop up on him, but he’s good now. He’s out of conditions, so we’ll have to think about what’s next.”

Air Vice Marshall was second and Texas Wedge was third.

Bob Ike’s SA play of the day

SIXTH RACE: No. 3 Tequila Blanco (4-1)

Older gelding from the Phil D'Amato stable didn't show much when finishing a distant third as the favorite over a wet-fast main track last time. However, he switches back to turf and had a very tough trip when sprinting over the grass one race back and can handle two turns. Look for him to rebound in a big way.

Friday’s result: Cimpl Man ran out in the sixth race.

Bob Ike is a Partner/VP of Horsebills.com (here’s a video) and the proprietor of BobIkePicks.com (full-card picks, 3 Best Plays and betting strategy).

Ed Burgart’s LA play of the day

THIRD RACE: No. 6 Land Of The Free (3-1)

Stretch-running gelding should get a great pace setup and was reclaimed by trainer Jesus Nunez from a victory vs. softer $2,500 field in last. With the presence of front runners Avila Beach, Bonmont and Battle Jet, I look for jockey Efrain Hernandez to get a great stalking trip aboard a gelding who has defeated stronger fields during a 43-race span in which he has seven victories and 13 seconds.
