Horse Racing Movies

Here is a list of all the horse racing movies I could find online. This is by no means to be considered a complete list as it is difficult to get them all to show up when searching. Each movie is linked to its entry in either TV Guide Online or the Internet Movie Database, which includes a plot summary, review, cast, and credits. Many of the older ones are not available on DVD or video tape, but you will find most of the newer ones on Amazon.com or you can search on eBay.com

to find some of the out-of-print tapes or DVDs not available on Amazon.

If you know of any movies I have missed, please let me know so I can add them to the list.
