Secretariat was a racing champion stallion. His stud fees, as best research showed, were $125,000 per mare.
In his first start, Secretariat went off at $3.10 to $1. It was the only race he would go off at more than 3-2. He didn't get off to a storybook start, being slammed inward almost into the rail. Way out of contention, he made an impressive recovery to finish fourth, only 1 lengths behind the winner.
