If You Could Choose a Horse to See on Your First Time

A recent column by Horse Racing Nation's newest writer, Bill Heller, really got me thinking. In the piece, Heller told of his first ever trip to a thoroughbred racetrack. As luck would have it, him and his buddies were treated to one of Secretariat's earliest powerhouse performances. The race was th...Read More

zatt · Really Danny? I did not expect anyone to have the same selection as me. I was not so happy to see Easy Goer at the Belmont Stakes, Curlin. He ended Sunday Silence's bid for the Triple Crown in a big way that afternoon, much to my chagrin. · 200 days ago ·

ckrisp · I had a lot of thinking to do, but probably Pan Zareta. She's always seemed like a real fighter, humble but fierce (cue in idealism). But in all seriousness, what a way to be introduced to racing that would have been... · 200 days ago ·

LarryDickson · Interesting choices in the article; very great names. The name of Pan Zareta in ckrisp comment was a surprise, but quite interesting. Dr. Fager has always been my favorite. So to choose one horse, whether · 200 days ago ·

BrianZipse · Pan Zareta is an interesting choice, and she gave her fans lots of chances to see her run and win, with 76 wins in 151 starts! Buckpasser is also an interesting choice, Larry, seeing your favorite was Dr. Fager. I take it you have great respect for both Damascus and Buckpasser. This is such a fun toopic, I hope the choices keep rolling in! · 200 days ago ·

luvzenyatta · I'm sure glad this isn't going to happen cuz I would have a breakdown trying to make the choice! The bid, Round Table, Citation, Sunday Silence..Nashua has a special place in my heart...but it all comes back to BIG RED..I guess I would just have to see the beauty and speed of the best of the best:) · 200 days ago ·

BrianZipse · What a story he was, Lanie ... you could have seen him run in 16 stakes in less than 7 months, including a 2nd, 3rd, and 2nd in the Triple Crown. You would have racked up serious frequent flyer miles following him! · 199 days ago ·

zenyatta mondatta · I would want to see them all Brian, For what each and every one has gave to this sport, some have gave their lives, most have gave their ALL. One thing for sure, past and present, none get the credit they deserve when they leave the sport for good. The mares are breeding machines and the colts are either tossed away because they didn't have a big enough name on the tracks , so therefore, its no telling where they end up at. My hope is that one day every race horse retired or old age, or just being a horse that wasn't that great on the tracks still find a loving home to call their own and not end up in a slaughter barn. · 199 days ago ·

Mike in SB · Since I started going to the races in 1980, i have been able to see a lot of the best horses, the ones I really regret missing are Risen Star, Smarty Jones, Big Brown and Rags to Riches. But the horse I really wish I had seen was Affirmed, I had moved to California in the late 1970's and had a chance to see him at Santa Anita but never did, my biggest regret in racing. · 199 days ago ·

MBPhipps · I recently rewatched the video of Secretariat winning the Belmont, and that brought me to tears...again. But I couldn't possibly decide on what I would have wanted my FIRST race horse experience to be. As it stands, I can't remember who it actually was! What I am grateful for though, is the fact that my years around the track have included visits to the winner's circle with some of the finest horses in their class the country. · 196 days ago ·
