The country is gripped in recession. Two blue collar couples pool their savings to buy a nondescript colt on the cheap, then hire an aging trainer whose only previous trip to the Derby was as an exercise boy 59 years ago. You already know how this script goes: The horse explodes out of the pack in the stretch and gallops home to the finish line to win the Roses and the adulation of the crowd. Sure, we’ve all seen this movie several times, but audiences never get tired of how it ends. Coming soon to theaters near you.
