  
Meadow Stable groom Eddie Sweat understood the importance of maintaining the balance of attention between Riva and Secretariat, intuitively recognizing the distinct personalities of both, and managing their individual needs.
Depicting a typical day in the mighty Meadow Stable barn adorned with its famed blue and white checkered signage, we find the composition of this image both entertaining and endearing. With Eddie's attention focused on Riva Ridge, Secretariat curiously, and perhaps a bit enviously, looks on from his adjacent stall. The photo epitomizes the daily care and shared affection surrounding these champion stablemates.
