Fingers crossed they find a distributor. I'm very eager to see it.

Lucky they included the eventual winner in their six horses, huh? Kind of like "Spellbound," another documentary I loved.

They had their bases covered a bit more than it appeared as they actually filmed 3 or 4 more trainers and then cut the movie down to the 6 they used.

Still, ten out of 20- still a pretty good chance not to get the winner. Especially if they picked some horses who didn't make it to the gate (do you know who the other 3 or 4 horses were?). Thanks for the extra info!

No I don't know which horses/trainers they also filmed. At both Q&A sessions when complimented on getting 5 of 6 to the Derby they revealed they followed 10 but didn't say who the others were.
