Penny Chenery Relives Secretariat's Belmont

Penny Chenery, the 91-year-old owner of Secretariat, granted an exclusive interview last week to Arapahoe Park, the racetrack near where she lives in Boulder, Colorado, in honor of the 40th anniversary of Secretariat's Triple Crown. In the interview, she reviews Secretariat's 31-length victory in the 1973 Belmont Stakes and provides commentary and perspective while watching the race won in a time that is still the world record for 1 1/2 miles on dirt. She reflects on her role as Secretariat's owner and discusses the opportunities available to women today at horse racing's highest level.
