The short story that the movie " Legends of the Fall " is based on has its ending in Saratoga, during racing, though unfortunately it was changed for the movie.

And those that are hip to "Nick and Nora", (and Asta), should know there are a variety of Saratoga references sprinkled liberally throughout their stories...

Mrs. Upjohn: Are you sure, Doctor, you haven't made a mistake? Dr. Hackenbush: You have nothing to worry about. The last patient I gave one of those to won the Kentucky Derby. (Wait a minute.. Wrong Margaret...) And BTW.. In a bizarre twist in this increasingly delightful thread, the terrific Flora Robson co-starred in BOTH 'Saratoga Trunk' AND 'Murder at the Gallop'!!!
