This was shown tonight and is very good. Perhaps this is old news, but this is an enjoyable documentary. Enjoy!

Hope to catch it next time ... wish I had known earlier.
Horse sense is the thing a horse has that keeps him from betting on people. ~~W. C. Fields
This came out around the time the movie was released, and is, IMO, in many ways much better than the movie. One of my favorite segments of PBS's fine series, "The American Experience."
First rule: Try always to do what's right for the horse. The people part will work out. -- Josh Pons, Merryland, 2007
I saw this the first time around, but definately worth a second look.
" I reject you reality, and substitute my own! " Mythbusters
"Sometimes, I think he's the King of Stupid" - Old Man "Pawn Stars"
"Oh, what fresh hell is this?!" - Sheldon Cooper- "Big Bang Theory"
I saw it last night and it was amazing. Much of it was rare and remastered film footage that I hadn't seen before. I agree it was better than the movie, primarily because it gave you a better sense of Seabiscuit himself...of his personality. I just loved the clips of Biscuit in the paddock, pre-race. He looked like he was half asleep.

speaking of Seabiscuit, since Noor's grave has been found and relocated-- will Seabiscuit grave EVER be told or kept as secret forever?
I think if its kept as secret- there is always a risk of the land ending up sold and the grave lost forever.
