Not related to Kentucky basketball but is a truly inspiring sports story and one I hope you'll enjoy. Secretariat was a thoroughbred racehorse, who in 1973 became the first U.S. Triple Crown champion in twenty-five years, setting new race records in two of the three events in the Series—the Kentucky Derby (1:59 2/5), and the Belmont Stakes (2:24)—records that still stand today. The movie is the life story of Penny Chenery, owner of Secretariat. Much of the film was produced in Lexington and Louisville and is scheduled to be released to theatres in October of this year. Secretariat died Oct. 4, 1989, at Claiborne Farm in Paris, Ky.
Walter Cornett, of Glendale, Kentucky, is the owner and operator of Walter's Wildcat World. He founded WildcatWorld.com in 1998 making it one of the oldest Kentucky basketball fan sites in operation today.
