Description of Pictures: "In The Gate: Secretariat's 40th Anniversary"
SECRETARIAT'S JOCKEY RON TURCOTTE
In person: Secretariat owner Penny Chenery and jockey Ron Turcotte
Secretariat's legendary jockey Ron Turcotte is one of the few champions to have won the prestigious American Triple Crown. This is the remarkable story of Turcotte's rise to fame in 1973, the fall that left him a paraplegic in 1978 and his emotional journey back to the people and places that marked his life. Featuring never-before-seen footage of Secretariat and appearances by Triple Crown winners Steve Cauthen and Jean Cruguet, as well as Secretariat's owner Penny Chenery, this road movie documents the thrilling and dangerous world of horseracing, where Turcotte remains an enduring source of inspiration.

Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
