It will be an interesting movie, for she is not a known quantity outside of racing circles.

Great name for a race horse, no?
That's great about Bill Nack-- I always thought if they were going to do a movie about her they would need a major character outside her inner circle for the audience to identify with. Glad to hear they picked up on my psychic vibes...

A lot of the volunteers at the Central Park Zoo (where I work) remember her very well-- might be because she was a New York horse, I don't know, but they remember the match race. One of them started to cry just talking to me about it. So some people outside racing remember her. I hope they tune in to see the movie!

It is a great name for a race horse; I agree.
