Re:Generation skip on greatness

Secretariat's pa was seattle slews grandpa. Secretariats grandpa was seattle slews great grandpa.  The autopsy on secretariat showed he had a heart 2&3/4's the size of a "normal" race horse.

 

Of course the genes of both are still in circulation and it is only a matter of time before the "incredible" genes surface.
