i thought the movie was good, but what i dont understand about these horse racing movies, be it seabicuit,phar lap, or ruffian is why they dont hire some people that know what happens with the true handleing of these horses to tell them how to make it realistic. their were 15 things that were showed in that movie that isnt how its actually done, they are things that the general public wouldnt have a clue about, but why not make the movie an accurate portrayal? i dont think the cost would be anymore, it is just a lack of the producers wanting to pay attention to detail.
