Average length per stride trivia
13 years 3 months ago
Some trivia
Just seen on TT with their very interesting fillers ((tu)) that the:
Average stride per horse is 23.5 feet;
Average stride for Zenyatta is 26.3 feet; and
Average stride for Secretariat is one foot less than Zenyatta so say 25.2 feet.
And horses take one stride per breath.
Therefore Zenyatta takes less strides and breaths per race.
So what's new?

Remember Secretariat was taking 2 strides to every other horses one so in fact was doing 50.4 feet

I always read Secretariat's stride the longest and possibly the last photo from Hibs proves that.
