The Movie Dreamer
 
I think I saw somewhere that Dreamer is a true story, is it? If it is was Sonjador the real name of the horse? Also who is the nice trainer and who is the bad trainer? What prince helped with the Breeders'entry? Just how much of the story is true?

Thanks

I've never seen it, but it's very loosely based on the career of Mariah's Storm.

It's based on a future bc classic that's won by an Idaho bred that's trained by Jeff Mullins sans mullet and Burt Reynoldsesque moustache.

VERY LOOSELY doesn't even describe it. Is their anything better then Kurt Whatever his name is saying he is going to run a horse in the Breeder Cup Classic?

Shame is, that the Mariah's Storm story was great enough as it was.

I guess they had to take an outstanding story and make it unrealistically absurd

American way, take something that works and screw it up trying to make it better.

It was a bit cheesey, but there is not many horse racing movies. Thanks for all the info
