The Triple Crown-winning Khartoum, and it's not up for discussion, IMO.

Like you said, you aren't a horse guy.I am not even a horse guy at all, but I always heard Secretariat was the best horse of all time. Shrug.
Khartoum was sold for $600K in the 40's. Was so special, when he died, his owner tore down his stables and got out of the horse business entirely.

Horseracing is awesome. There's nothing more exciting to bet on and no sport more exciting to watch.
I hope it doesn't die off when all the old people propping it up die.
I was in a locals bar in Boston when Secreteriat won the Belmont by a gazillion lengths and people who probably knew very little about racing stood up and just started clapping for the horse after the race was over. They were sports fans who knew that they had seen the Babe Ruth, Ted Williams, Bill Russell, or Bobby Orr of horses.
