Secretariat 50th Anniversary

You'd be extremely hard - put to find a more famous racehorse than Secretariat. Lovingly called “Big Red,” this chestnut stallion galloped straight into the hearts of an entire nation during the 1973 Kentucky Derby. Not only did he win the race, but he also set a speed record of 1:59 2/5, a record that still stands strong today! After effortlessly clinching the Preakness Stakes and setting yet another record, he went on to make an even bigger mark at the Belmont Stakes. Secretariat became the first horse in 25 years to win the Triple Crown and achieved an astonishing victory by a world - record 31 lengths! Secretariat, along with his owner Penny Chenery, jockey Ron Turcotte, and trainer Lucien Laurin, etched their names permanently in racing history. 2023 marks the 50th anniversary of Secretariat's legendary Triple Crown win. To celebrate this momentous occasion, this special limited - edition Secretariat statue has been painted in a shiny metallic gold. The white blaze and leg markings on the statue add a beautiful contrast. This magnificent symbol of racing history is further enhanced by a lovely rose garland. This is an absolute must - have for any Secretariat enthusiast!

This limited - edition Secretariat statue is mainly for display purposes. You can place it on a mantel, a bookshelf, or any flat surface in your home to show off your love for Secretariat and racing history. When handling the statue, be gentle as it's a delicate item. Avoid dropping or knocking it against hard objects. To keep it looking shiny, you can use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the surface from time to time. If there are stubborn stains, use a slightly damp cloth but make sure to dry it thoroughly right away. Keep it away from direct sunlight for long periods as the sunlight might fade the metallic gold paint. Enjoy this wonderful piece and let it be a centerpiece of your racing memorabilia collection!
