New Artwork in the Office

Matthew Williams was generous enough to donate a beautiful painting of our namesake. It is a breathtaking portrait of Secretariat in his quintessential win in the Belmont Stakes by 31 lengths, capturing the historical moment of Ron Turcotte looking back to try and find the rest of the field. The painting was done by Kentuckian equine artist Henry Koehler.

Come and see this gorgeous painting hanging in our office at the Kentucky Horse Park. And if you’re here already, come see all our wonderful horses available for adoption.
