The Coincidence of the Two Chestnuts




The whole world will be watching on Saturday when the leggy chestnut stallion leaves the starting gate in an effort to make history and win the Triple Crown. We all want him to win!  But did you know..................

California Chrome was the No. 5 horse at the Kentucky Derby and No. 3 at  the Preakness. Secretariat, the legendary thoroughbred who won the Triple Crown in 1973, also happened to have those same numbers for those two races.

"Guess what Secretariat's post position was for the Belmont Stakes? That's right -- No. 2."
