telford successful?
the part of the story that says that telford had established himself as a successful trainer is inconsistant with the movie. in fact, in the movie there is a scene where telford talks about training all his new horses the same and them all being "duds". this needs to be edited.

also, on the sleve for the vhs version of this movie it is claimed that pharlap's success was impeded by the racing comission because pharlaps trainer was jewish and the racing comission was anti-semetic. what? there is little reference to dave davis being jewish and anti-semetism had nothing to do with the commissions grudge against pharlap. pharlap won and won and won. nobody wanted to put their horses against him and the bookmakers wouldnt take any bets for pharlap because he always won. why do people inject this type of crap into the sleve of a movie? does the myth of antisemetism need to be spread that badly? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.102.19.127 (talk) 01:10, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Anti Semitism
I had this movie on VHS. It said that Anti-Jewish sentiment was the reason the racing officials were against Pharlap. His owner was a Jew. Is there any truth to this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.137.26.82 (talk) 03:09, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
