Pre-1980 Preakness Stakes

Spectacular Bid 1979:



Affirmed 1978:



Seattle Slew 1977 from this link.


Master Derby 1975


Secretariat 1973. Secretariat's move on the first turn is the most sensational in the history of the race. I HATE the music with this race. Just show the race with no trimmings:



Canonero II 1971. This is in Spanish:



Majestic Prince 1969:



Northern Dancer 1964


Greek Money 1962 by a tiny margin over Ridan.

Bold Ruler 1957. Footage is silent:



Bold Ruler, the greatest sire in thoroughbred racing history, sired 1973 winner Secretariat, who in turn sired 1988 winner Risen Star.

Fabius, son of Citation, 1956. Newsreel ighlights:
