Horse related to Secretariat dies in Round Lake stable fire
(MCT) — A fire that ripped through a barn in Round Lake on Saturday afternoon killed six horses , including one that the owner said shared a bloodline with Secretariat, the famous, hulking thoroughbred that won the Triple Crown in 1973.
Owner Urbano Hernandez said he suspects that hot embers from a blaze he intentionally started earlier to clear away brush on his property may have caused the fire.
