This matching pair of photos features the official finish line photo from the back-to-back Meadow Stable victories in the "Test of the Champion." The June 9, 1973 image features Secretariat with Ron Turcotte aboard in an amazing full stretch stride, while the June 10, 1972 image captures Riva Ridge and Ron crossing the wire in the prestigious stakes a year earlier. Interestingly, the Riva Ridge image was only recently discovered from the personal collection of Penny Chenery and this offering marks the first public offering of this very rare historic image.
Photographs measure 8" x 10" and are printed on fine archival photo stock. Dually displayed in a black parchment folio display and adorned with a Secretariat Meadow Stable lapel pin. One or both photos in set available with the option of being hand-signed by Mr. Turcotte.
