This is a wonderful movie, and a perfect one for grandparents and grandchildren. It is a tribute to race horses and to a very strong and determined heroine. It was a nice touch that the actual people were shown at the end, and viewers were told what became of them, More than that, the actual heroine was in one of the final scenes of the film - the finish of the Belmont race. The only odd thing was the attempt of the filmmakers to make fabulously wealthy people seem to be rather ordinary - going to coffee shops all the time while at the same time, spending enormous sums of money to breed and race horses. It is after all still the "sport of kings", but that in no way makes the film less enjoyable as a modern tale of determination and sound judgement.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
