3) Weather has less to do with the track being souped up than track crews
4) Bellamy Road equaled Riva Ridge's track record at 9f, not Riva's world record at 9.5f. Bellamy is 2 full seconds short of the world record at 9f.
5) Secretariat is the only 3yr old with a world record.
6) Secretariat is a triple crown winner, Spectacular Bid is NOT. How was the Bid on the turf?

2) But he came close.
3) Ha...tell that to all the horses that constantly break records at tracks in which there would be NO reason for souping up the tracks for those horses.
4) Still, Bellamy Road equalled the track record at 9f and he was a three year old.
6) Spectacular Bid holds the mile and a quarter record...the most important distance. Also, Spectacular Bid equalled records as a two year old. Secretariat did not. Specatacular Bid was OVERALL the better horse who had just as good of a four year old year as Secretariat's three year old year. In fact, I think Secretariat's BSF average for his three year old year was at 115 and the Bid's BSF average was at 122 for his four year old year.

How was Secretariat as a four year old?
