Secretariat?

dogdadguy.bsky.social•26 days ago

War Admiral?

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

No...

landrgates.bsky.social•26 days ago

I’m gonna guess Secretariat.

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

You are correct!

octavia2020.bsky.social•26 days ago

Man of War?

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

No Secretariat

octavia2020.bsky.social•26 days ago

Sorry, I only know the names of 2 horses, and the other's Seabiscuit.

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

No need to be sorry! Seabiscuit was a great horse too!

I rode Bob's Bisquit, Seabisquit's grandson. He was a therapy horse in his later years.

nice!

humboldthunnybunny.bsky.social•26 days ago

Secretariat was descended from Man O War I think.

humboldthunnybunny.bsky.social•26 days ago

Distant cousins. My memory from all those horse books I read as a kid is fuzzy.

grantscrossing.bsky.social•25 days ago

I’m guessing Secretariat.

I read once that Secretariat sired over 600 foals after retiring, so it wouldn’t surprise me.

whynownews.bsky.social•26 days ago

Probably Secretariat.

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

Yes

saellyn.bsky.social•26 days ago

Lol, my friend told me the answer to this earlier today. We live about 50miles from each other and usually watch it together and comment on the horses as they approach the gate, but she couldn't get NBC to tune in today. ☹️

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

That sux 😔 regarding NBC

Secretariat!

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

Yes did you use Google lol?

echo-c-whiskey.bsky.social•25 days ago

Nope - heard it at a Derby party! 😂

altmusician.altgov.info•25 days ago

🤣🙂

Secretariat

beehamann.bsky.social•26 days ago

Secretariat!

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

Yes!

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

Yes

weazl.bsky.social•26 days ago

Secretariat. If you go back further in their pedigree, you'll see Nasrulla as well.

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

Wow I didn't go back that far

weazl.bsky.social•26 days ago

I'm old.

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

I like your profile picture!

weazl.bsky.social•25 days ago

Thanks. When someone tells me, you can't do that, I remember this day when we did do that.

altmusician.altgov.info•25 days ago

Yes!

clever-rinsie.bsky.social•26 days ago

And well up on thoroughbred bloodlines! I'm kind of a pedigree junkie too.

altmusician.altgov.info•26 days ago

I wish I still had my racehorse. But the thing is, let me travel. So muchIt wouldn't be fair to leave him there so much..

clever-rinsie.bsky.social•26 days ago

Yeah, I get that. I'm without a riding teacher at the moment, so Apollo and I are just kind of dinking around, enjoying each other's company, rather than competing or anything. It feels ... so lazy!
