m sorry but that isnt speculation. He was not really ever given the whip, and he had a ton left when crossing the line. He was still gaining speed



And Ron Turcotte never went to the whip with Secretariat in the Belmont so I would assume he would have had a lot in the tank left as well.

Both great horses but Secretariat ran the fastest Belmont ever. That is the only fact.

He may have. I said it is possible if they raced head to head Red may have run faster. I just don't think that is likely based on watching the races and listening to Turcotte speak about the race
