Summary
In the aftermath of the 1973 season, the racing world is forever changed. The legend of Secretariat—"Big Red," the untouchable Triple Crown winner—casts a long and inescapable shadow over the All-American Racing League. For the other racers, her dominance is both a spectacle to behold and a barrier to their own dreams.
What does it mean to stand in that shadow? What does it take to face a myth and not be consumed by it? What is the true cost of greatness—for the one who holds it, and for those who dare to reach for it?
And in the end, what does it really mean.. to 'Have Heart'?

Summary
Paraje has never been talented.
Not in Argentina, where she started. Not in Venezuela, where she tried next. Not here, in the United States, where she's been struggling since 1969 without a single graded stakes win to her name.She knows the world is unforgiving. She's lived some of it.
Paraje knows it can dig you into a hole deeper than anything she's experienced because she's seen it happen to others.
So why keep going?
She doesn't have an answer. Nobody does.
Maybe meaning isn't something you find and hopefully it's something you build, step by step, mile by mile, even when you're angry, even when you're bitter, even when the world is as cruel and beautiful it can be.

Summary
They call her the West Coast challenger, the filly with a heart twice the size and a stride built to swallow cities. From foggy mornings at Claiborne to the bright, punishing lights of Belmont and beyond, Sham learns what it means to chase history and be remembered as second best.
AKA a deep dive into my Uma Musume for the race horse Sham, rival to Secretariat in the 1973 Triple Crown races

Her plan is scrambled when Secretariat, fresh off a record breaking triple crown run, announces her intentions to run the Whitney. The eyes of the American racing world are set upon Saratoga.
