    Fantastic Boris :)

    Being old enough (easily) to remember this when it happened, helps of course, but I had never seen the film before. And how young Pearse Brosnan must be!

    Thanks <ok>

    Its well before my time Reebok but I still thought it was an excellent film, well worth a watch for an hour.

    Gay Future was "played" by a horse called Joint Venture.

    It must have been a better actor than racer, as I can find no racecourse form at all :)

    One of the funniest things I have read from a racing journalist was when David Ashforth claimed to have spotted that the trainer of Gay Future had entered horses in the south miles from his yard. I find it very hard to believe Ashforth scoured the jumps meetings on that bank holiday morning and spotted that. I bet he had never even heard of the trainer let alone knew where he trained!
