I really love horse racing but I'm to tall to race my own horses, but I am going to start exercise riding for her.

I think it was a really good movie the Long Shot but the thing was yes i gonna spoil is the horse becomes blind but if you think about and dressage horse rides blind most of the time with having there head tuck in so much. Only thing they really see is the ground in front of them or there legs moving over the ground. www.sustainabledressage.com/rollkur/why_not.phpScroll down alittle to see what I am talking about |

Wow, that is really sad. This isn't as bad for the horse, but I hate it when people have their horses carry their heads super high so the rider can practically touch the horse's nose. It is really sad and is scary for the horses.

I LOVE the movie long shot! I watch it all the time and cry. I live all the racing movies and flicka and dreamer and all those. I like black beauty and the black stallion. Anything to do with horses you got to love them! I like the movie Surgare. Its not an american movie, but I bought it from walmart and also The Winter Stallion is a good one aswell.

norsu, kowgirlkassey explained it earlier.
have you seen the horses in Stardust? i watched it yesterday, and forgot how amazing they are! they have LOTR-styley coachhorses, and Prince Septimus has the most gorgous grey andalusian at the end... the unicorn is fabulous! really magical looking, i htink its spanish too... but my favourite is the little gypsy horse that Tristan rides at the end! little stubby legs, it looks like a guinea pig crossed with a dinosour!

Want to know what I think is stupid? If you don't too bad! LOL
In the book Black Beauty, the horse is a true blue (stole that from mate) Friesian. In the movie? He is played by a Quarter Horse! Yeah yeah, Quarter Horses are awesome and all, and Doc Holiday or what ever his name was was black and all, but seriously. Black Beauty? The even the name screams Frieisan all over it!
Anyone beg to differ?
