Here’s my take: the best lede I’ve ever seen was Grantland Rice’s “Four Horsemen” of Notre Dame. I get goosebumps every time I re-read that lede.

I know Nack is at least an advisor on that movie. His book on Secretariat is wonderful.

Just read Disney’s got a Secretariat movie coming out next October around the anniversary of his death.
Diane Lane as his owner. Predictably sentimental treatment I’m sure, but I’ll check that out.

Nack is a beast. One of the best bonus piece guys of ‘em all.

I’m not a centaur, or even a horse guy, but the Secretariat story is a heartbreaker. Damn, that’s a well written. It’s not even written. It’s perfectly told.
