Secretariat (2010) Soundboard Edit

A man named Job complained to God about all his troubles

All right, gentlemen, I guess we're going to get started.

All right, then. I'll see you in the morning.

Almost three!

And I don't know a way to conjure up six million dollars

And I wish I can give you something to lift yours up.

And my father's trust in you was... is absolute.

And trainers don't go anywhere to work for a few months

And, last time I checked, Jack and your children were still part of this family.

Angle Light in front. Sham on the outside.

As Secretariat makes his bid for horse racing immortality.

Because Mama's gone.

Before you race him again. What makes you think you can?

Big old Red done ate his breakfast this morning!

Both of you can make it, right?

But my accountants,

But you had to know, you do your homework, that there were other

But you're a little short on people over there who know what they're doing

Can I give you a lift home?

Come on, Big Red!

Coming on the 16th pole, Angle Light in front

Dad says it's Commie crap.

Do you like my hat?

Doesn't matter. Mine's the big red one. And he's going to beat them all.

Especially one as smart as Big Red here.

Everything living lives from its heart,

For years they had me covering politicians.

Funny, I was about to tell you the same thing.

Go on home. Just go on.

Gold Bag just in front of him as they clear the half mile.

Half ofwhat you do for its owner.

He cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds

He cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds.

He doesn't have enough experience. This horse needs a jock with more experience.

He knows what's going on.

He knows.

He leads it by a length.

He only does what he wants to do exactly when he wants to do it.

He's getting ready now to make the walk across to the saddling area.

He's going for the lead, and it is right now he's looking for it!

Head of the stretch, Secretariat at two and a half.

Here's the race, folks. Secretariat trying to hold it.

Hmm

Hold it.

Hollis said you found her.

Honey, listen. If this is really important to you, you won't...

I am so sorry.

I believe that this race is going to prove

I didn't hold him back. I rode him the same way I always do

I didn't mean it like that. I just meant...

I don't believe this!

I don't know about the ways of God, ma'am,

I hope you'll stay.

I think he can go all the way.

I wanted to write about the other end of the horse.

I was already on my way.

I was calling about a select opportunity on Secretariat.

I'd swear to it... in court.

I'm going to have Ronnie take him out in the morning.

I'm his voice.

I'm not afraid. Neither are they.

I'm so sorry about your father.

I'm sorry, Mr. Hancock.

I'm that right.

I'm trying to get across the street.

I've really laughed, in a... Since I don't remember when.

If you want him fit, you take care of them.

In a position to do something poorly?

Is going to be trying to bring us down.

It takes him forever to find his stride.

It's a select opportunity. We have 32 shares...

It's bad business to come to a barn, interrupt a trainer's work

It's not whether they think we won.

It's nothing like Sham's been running.

It's Secretariat at the finish! He wins it by two lengths.

It's Secretariat with an impressive victory by two lengths.

It's whether we think we won

It's your daddy, honey.

Just remember, ifwe push him instead of rest him...

Let him run his race, darling.

Let him walk. Walk off his nerves.

Let's talk later.

Lucien, those are the grandest words anyone's ever said to me.

Miss Ham says he tried to sell four of his best horses last month

Missed you.

Mom!

Navajo, Forego, and Warbucks beginning to move up, followed by My Gallant...

Nine! Eleven!

No.

No. It was my fault

Now approaching Blackthorn.

Now you run yours.

Of course he's the favorite in this race as we look at him in his barn.

Oh! Glory!

OK, Eddie.

Our father was a great man, but we can't bring him back.

Penny, Hollis is only trying to talk sense.

Pick up some Riesling? I have a client coming in. That's all he drinks.

Secretariat by 30!

Secretariat has now won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes,

Secretariat is going down.

Secretariat leaning against the back ofthe gate.

Secretariat refusing to yield. Driving forward.

Secretariat still lagging offthe pace.

Secretariat surging from the gate.

Secretariat surging, knocking Blackthorn and Fat Frank aside with brute force.

Sham and a dozen others moving into striking position.

Sham and Angle Light driving to the wire! Secretariat fading!

Sham has about as much chance of beating Secretariat

Sham now third on the outside by two lengths.

Since Citation did it in 1948,

Since they're my father's horses, and the sale would've been bad business.

So which of you ladies owns Secretary?

Something about a name for the horse.

Thank you.

Thank you.

That is exactly what I'm saying.

That's right, you won't.

That's true, I am.

That's what matters to them.

The 105th running ofthe Belmont Stakes.

The guy couldn't train his own bowel movements

The match up between Secretariat and Sham.

The new colt runs his first race on the fourth.

The old man, your father? Ask him.

The race is scheduled for 5:38 this afternoon.

There you go! There you go!

These two are both pregnant by Bold Ruler

They have a rule that theater projects can't be political

They're at the head ofthe stretch and Sham is the leader.

This is my son, Seth.

This is unbelievable. No horse can take this pace!

Very big day, Mrs. Tweedy.

Wants to be first to the food. Or the mare.

We finished third. Third! In front of Ogden Phipps!

Well, I'd have to say I agree completely with Mr. Martin.

Well, thank you, Eddie. You just did.

Well, that's that

Well, there is a race up in Aqueduct in a couple weeks.

Well, you should know, Mr. Laurin.

Well...

What is it, Lucien? What's wrong?

What it was to stand up in the world and...

What you're going to hear from the Secretariat people.

When do you have to give an answer by?

When he is aware ofthings, but we shouldn't expect much

When your horse people call the house, they don't ask for Mrs. Tweedy,

Yeah, and his mother was old when she had him and Ogden Phipps knew all that

Yes, I think we have.

Yes, sir. It's a great opportunity.

You and I both know that horse...

You don'tjust make us fools, you make us beggars

You got what nobody else wanted. Time to go home

You have a great horse.

You have to stay here and take this with me.

You need to talk to Lucien Laurin. He's a French Canadian.

You thought that was funny. I did, too.

You're about to ask me to spend a small fortune

You're going to eat dirt today, Ronnie.

You're going to have to take them on in earnest next year.

You're going to want to be in on this.

You're not late. You're perfectly on time.

Your daddy's eyes would always light up when he talked about you.

Your mother was a fine woman. It was a privilege just knowing her

Your teenage daughters are growing up to become rebels.

[Girl] I saw Big Red! [Woman] Good girl, sweetheart.

[Indistinct chattering] I can't watch this.

[Jack] Coin toss? [Penny] Jack, listen.

[Jack] Well, that was really good! [Boys] Can we be excused?

[Overlapping cheers] Whoo!

[Starting bell rings] And they're off.

And they're off! Yeah, he goes right to the back.

Come on, Ronnie! Run!

Dad, you seeing this? I see him.

Eddie! [Lucien] Ronnie. Ronnie!

Good job, man. Thank you, man.

Hi, Miss Ham. Oh, my, you two have grown

I can't believe it! You did it!

I guarantee it. [Miss Ham] He is ridiculous.

I'll pick those up

I'm just asking. [Exhales]

Mr. Hunt? Penny Chenery. Mr. Keck, Seth Hancock.

No nuclear devices on the table. [Boy] Come on, Dad

No! Go! Go!

Penny Chenery. Oh, you're the daughter

Really? Yeah!

Sham under a strong left handed whip. [All cheering]

They straighten away in the stretch! [All shouting]

Twenty five pounds of hay. A day?

What? [Jack] Sire and dam and Sam l Am?

What? [Telephone rings]

You know Ronnie Turcotte, my rider? Ronnie.

You're Bill... Nack, right? Yes, ma'am.

...and work is good for grief.

[Both speak French]

[Clears throat]

[Crowd roars]

[Door opens]

[Eddie] Calm yourself. Calm yourself.

[Fanfare plays]

[Horse grunting]

[Indistinct chatter overlapping]

[indistinct chatter]

[Laughter]

[Lucien] Congratulations.

[Lucien] Have you ever seen that?

[Lucien] That's good. That's good.

[Male announcer 3] Secretariat by eight!

[Male announcer 4] Secretariat wins!

[Male announcer] It's a beautiful day at Saratoga Park.

[Male announcer] Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the fourth race at Aqueduct,

[Man] Don't let them fool you, darling.

[Ronnie] OK, Red

[Secretariat breathing heavily]

[Seth] Yes, Mr. Cleaver, it's lots of money. But my father used to tell me

[Snorting]

[Soul music plays]

[Sound of crowd silences]

[Speaks French]

[Stammers]

[Telephone ringing]

[Thunder rumbles]

[Woman] Bring it home, Red!

[Woman] More than three thousand years ago,

♪ For my old Kentucky home

♪ Holy infant so
