Great video! Enjoyed seeing Mrs. Chenery at Keeneland during the filming of Secretariat. She is truly a role model for women.

Amazing video, Adam. Thank you for sharing it here. What a generous and kind person Mrs. Chenery is. I cannot wait to see the movie and like Runfast said, the question is how many times will I see it? Thanks!

"Today is yesterday's tomorrow" I really like that Adam.. You said a mouthful there. I couldn't agree with you more. We are making history right now and we are living it. Does the history we are making now seem as "nostalgic" as days past??? We don't know. Probably not simply because the world has changed so much we just can't go back to that...but we have to live in the times we have been given. I for one am THANKFUL that I lived in the time with the great Big Red...even if I was 6. I am also THANKFUL to be living in the times of RA and Zenyatta....at 42. Horse racing is my true hearts desire. I do find it an incredible honor that one of the horses found to play the noble Secretartiat is from the great (and well kept secret) of North Dakota. We are about as far removed from the big deal that is horse racing as you can get. I can't wait to see the movie!!!

The interview was awesome. I have been lucky to have met Lucien Laurin, Ron Turcotte, Eddie(Shorty)Sweat and Charlie Davis. While I never had the chance to meet Mrs. Tweedy (as I grew up knowing her as) all 4 of those gentlemen had nothing but the highest praise for the First Lady of Racing. I cant wait for the movie,too bad Riva Ridge couldnt have made a guest appearance!

Wow...I'm in tears right now. I love Penny Chenery so much. What a tremendous role model and representative for horse racing. I wish I could tell her how much she and Secretariat have meant to me my entire 30 years and how much they have shaped my life. Thanks Penny!

Penny is a class act -- a real genuine lady of the turf and true inspiration. Loved the piece and hope you will continue to promote it.

Thanks so much for the clip of the Penny Chenery interview. I am so excited for the movie the only question I have is not whether I will see it but how many times!

I've been following Richard's Kid since just before the Pac Classic (and placed a win bet on him). No one gave him a second thought for the Goodwood but he showed up and I think this horse could be sitting on a big performance in the Classic.

I'm just waiting for the fields to start firming up before the BC so I can start handicapping the races in earnest.

I am so glad that Mrs. Chenery is still with us today and Ron Turcotte. These are the fine people that got to witness the great Secretariat. These folks got to see him, ride him and be in his presence. What an honour for them today to be able to share their great memories of him with us.

I am so blessed with the wonderful memories of having watched Secretariat run in 1972 & 1973. In spite of the fact there was no internet in his day. People knew who Secretariat was. There wasn't a newspaper you couldn't pick up that didn't have something to report on the big horse. I kept the Newsweek, Sports Illustrated and Time magazines that he appeared on. Secretariat was a happening and Penny with her grace and and dedicated team helped make Secretariat who is was. A legend! Thank you, Penny. You gave us a treasure to cherish.
