![]() This is sort of a trailer. I just stole this from another site. It is awesome. I am so excited to see it. I got to visit her grave at Belmont and it is very sad.

![]() Um, why make a movie about Ruffian? Why not a story that ended in a positive way? I get that Ruffian was a great filly, but wouldn't it be better for the industry to have a movie about Secretariat or Sunday Silence or something?

It doesn't hurt that the Janneys bred her and they have a hook into Hollywood. |

![]() Lassie was always played by a boy, too.
Though I heard the last Benji was played by one of the original Benji's daughters. Benji? Bengy? Benjy? It's been a long time since I saw one of those movies... |

![]() sam sheppard reminds me a lot of chris cooper as an actor.
always does a good job. not sure why they did this as a made for television movie. seems like Bill Knack could have done better for his book. Ill watch it I suppose, but these horse movies are always filled with factual mistakes that leave me a little p*ssed off. I want to know when the Barbaro movie is coming off. with all the press the story has recieved, it can not be far behind. seems kind of boring. -brilliant turf horse switches to dirt. hates Gulfstream but is so good he wins anyway. wins KY Derby. gets hurt, then ppl hand pick grass for him and send him get well cards as if he is the first horse in the history of time to master the english language. not all that exciting.
