Humans have gotten faster but horses haven't?

Why have humans consistently been running faster and faster times in races while Secretariat still holds and unbreakable record at Belmont?

Because secretariats numbers are fake and untrustworthy. Duh
You can’t trust some dude who just polished off his 10th mint Julip to keep an accurate time stamp

Well, start coming up with horse weightlifting regimens and you’ll see improvement.
Horses routinely skip leg day.

Humans have a whole entire foot to run on, horses only use a single digit. How fast would you be running on only one toe?

Cause Secretariat was the GOAT. No one beats the GOAT.

I think it's probable horses are faster on average. Secretariat was a once in a lifetime horse and now you have better timing systems that more accurately reflect true time. I don't think it's crazy to think times back then were embellished a bit. Same with guys like Deion Sanders and Beau Jackson still have some of the fastest 40 times.

Because we are not native to Earth. Every day further evidence is discovered that we are products of alien seeding. Our dna was sent to earth by our alien ancestors to continue their species. It looks like you may have stumbled upon more proof.

PETA protested horses having fall 2 a days. It is what itis.

Because animals aren't sports-competitive creatures?

Oh, and that bItch Mr. ED demanding equal rights for stable horses and race horses.

Preakness Stakes second and third fastest times came in 1996 and 1985....

Why not horses where they pay $500,000 for some baby goo?
