Secretariat Not Unbeatable at Travers Stakes
Secretariat’s image took a hit after a stunning upset at Saratoga. Meadow Stable’s champion may redeem himself on August 18 in the $100,000-added Travers Stakes, a 144 mile test attracting top 3-year-olds and a potential crowd larger than the Whitney attendance. Onion, a 4-year-old gelding owned by Hobeau Farm and ridden by Jacinto Vasquez, finished one length ahead of Secretariat in the Whitney.
