Default "Secretariat" on Late Late Show...sort of ;)

For the last two nights now, Craig Ferguson has graced us with "Secretariat" making an in-studio appearance. By "Secretariat" I mean two poor interns in a chestnut horse costume running in while they play some silly music, then running back out again. The 2nd appearance, tonight, someone sent in a tweet or email about 'wow I didn't know he was so swayback' (it's a very lumpy costume) so they brought him back out. The two guys accidentally ran into a wall as they left. Craig showed it in slow motion, had them come out a couple more times, and swore no horses were harmed.

I'll try to find a clip or two. John Malkovich was on the show last night, but he was promoting his movie Red and is a pleasant but strange individual so no real effort to bring up either movie. The number of times Craig said Secretariat's name was pretty high, and all publicity is supposed to be good publicity yes? He seems to find the bit amusing so perhaps it will happen again. The audience enjoyed it.
