Secretariat - 1973 Whitney Handicap (G2)

Trainer H. Allen Jerkens is known as The Chief, a nickname befitting a legend of The Turf. He's also known as the Giant Killer, a reputation earned by making a habit of upsetting noteworthy horses. Four days after setting a track record going six furlongs, in front of what was then the largest crowd in Saratoga history, his Onion defeated 1-10 superstar Secretariat. So monumental was the upset that Jerkens was moved to tears as he accepted the trophy.
