![]() As one who distinctly remembers emphatically stating before that Derby, "WHAT A JOKE! THIS HORSE SHOULD NOT BE RUNNING IN THE DERBY!!", I've never been a big fan of the horse that made me feel like a dope. But watching this trailer, which I thought was very well done, reminded me what a good (and unlikely) story it actually was.

![]() If the trailer is a good representation of the film, I like that it looks to be more of a light comedy than anything else. I actually laughed at "Please God, don't let him be last." Secretariat gave me my fill of inspiring stories of rich people succeeding against all odds.
