This classic color image of Secretariat with exercise rider Jimmy Gaffney up captures the perfect balance and confirmation of the Meadow Stable colt. Taken in the spring of 1973 just before a morning gallop at Belmont Park, the captioned image features an intent equine athlete on the precipice of racing legend prior to the Triple Crown.
Perhaps the favorite Secretariat image from Mr. Gaffney's personal collection, this is a scarce find, hand-signed by Mr. Gaffney in the last years of his life. Limited quantities available, measures 8" x 10."
