Tweedy, Kate Chenery; and Leeanne Ladin. Secretariat’s Meadow. There are a few racehorses that were famous enough that their names became household words in this country. Dan Patch the pacer was one; Man o’War and Seabiscuit were two famous and feted Thoroughbreds; and then came Secretariat. No one who saw the Belmont the year he won the Triple Crown will ever forget the spine-tingling final stretch run that brings to mind the 18th-century saying, “Eclipse first, the rest nowhere” as the great chestnut colt pulled away ever farther from the rest of the field – 31 lengths at the end. This is the story of the farm where Secretariat was born, written by the daughter of owner Penny Chenery and Leeanne Ladin and replete with many old photographs from the farm’s history as well as newer ones of champions Riva Ridge and Secretariat. Included in this, the 5th edition, is an insert with additional information, including photographs of some of Secretariat’s outstanding descendants such as Tapit. Hardcover, 152pp. $39.95
