Wonderful piece about the great & courageous Mr. Turcotte. May he & his family continue to thrive.
What a great story. What a great man. What a great horse. What a great documentary. Thanks for uploading
Ron was a courageous gentlemen and greatest jockey. Ron and Secretariat were a perfect duo and picture of perfection. I’m so sorry for his tragic accident.
Maybe we should petition for “a moment of prayer” during every horse race. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 for the safety of the horses and jockeys!!
A great documentary about an extraordinary man.👍
