What the Nation is saying about Round Table...

Round Table is considered by many to be the greatest American turf horse. He won three turf titles to John Henry’s four. So who was actually the better?

  • shadowno · John Henry ran 83 races with 39 victories. 7 Eclipse awards and twice Horse of the Year. Essentially JH and Round Table were such outstanding animals that IMO you could argue either side and not be wrong. · 13 days ago ·

The date was May 4, 1957. The Soviet Union was only a few months away from sending a dog into space, and in the world of thoroughbred horse racing, one of the most talked about races in history was about to be run under the famed twin spires. The main players were part of what many still call the fi...Read More

  • driveon · I was thinking the same thing as Mike in SB when I watched it. The "misjudgement" was far less pronounced than I thought it was originally..... · 188 days ago ·

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

  • 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. · 305 days ago ·

On Gold Cup Eve, while most fans are busy handicapping the big race, I found myself in a slightly more nostalgic mood, and the Hollywood Gold Cup is an easy race for which to wax poetic. Seabiscuit and Citation, Swaps and Round Table, Native Diver and Ack Ack, Ferdinand and Cigar, Skip Away and Lava...Read More

Round Table, John Henry, Manila, Cougar II and Fort Marcy are the top 5 American turf horses, in my opinion.
1957- Bold Ruler,Gallant Man, then Round Table
hmmm...66starts:43-8-5..$1,749,869....US Champion Turf Horse 1957,1958,1959..US Male Handicap Horse1958,1959..Horse of the Year 1958..Leading North American Sire 1972..3rd horse to win $1 mil after Citation and Nashua...Set or equaled 14 track records and equaled 1 world record...Acknowledged as one of the greatest turf runners in the sport...By the time he retired he had carried between 130-136 lb 25 times and won 17. What a great horse he was..I'm jealous of anyone in HRN who saw him race:)
number three alltime(lol) he was number 3 for 1957 alone
I started a poll, there on the left, a few days ago and the more I considered the votes coming in, the more I realized it required a little write-up. These are the ten crops that I have identified as the best in American racing history. To qualify, the horses did not need to be bred in...Read More
Hillsdale, winner of the Hollywood Gold Cup 50 years ago, was a symbol of the way racing was supposed to be, but hasn't been for a long time.Read More
