why would it cost more to put the shank on the halter the right way? why would it cost more to walk the horse the way they really get walked? and just another small doesnt really matter sort of thing...in the very 1st scene of the movie a racing form was shown laying on a table with the PPs opened to a certain page, the horse that was on the PPs shown was take me out,,,he was born in 1988,,,it is just a pet peeve of mine, i realize it was a low budget movie but.....for some reason as i watch i pick it apart in my mind.....how did ya like when they showed ruffians gallops and breezes suposedly taking place in the mornings at belmont park? she was the only horse on the entire track, when in reality the race track is like grand central station in the morning, when the track is open for training thier are like 100 horses out there from the time it opens till it closes each morning. but my favorite all time blunder in a horse racing movie was in phar lap,,he is regarded as the best race horse in the world.....the groom and his girlfriend take him on a picnic and while they are eating they turn him loose and let him run through the woods,,,wonder if pletcher will let the groom take rags to riches to the park today and let her loose to run freely like she is in nature?
its only a movie and like i said its just my pet peeve.
