Man. This is why we love great horses. The quality of the vision is extraordinary. As a kid growing up in Australia, I always had racehorse posters on my bedroom wall. Phar Lap of course and my favourite a grey called Gunsynd, who raced in Oz around the time of Secretariat. But the Sea Biscuit back story is so compelling that I can't watch this without a lump in my throat. What a grand, grand champion he was. Thanks for putting this up. Bless you Sea Biscuit, Red, George and youtube!
This is absolutely EPIC! I love the two horse match races! that way you really do find out who is the better horse. Less chance of accidents or being hemmed in.
War Admiral was a dam good horse, so how good was Sea Biscuit to pull 3-4 lengths clear at the wire! its astonishing what that horse did there beating War Admiral on a going day.
What a race!! we need more match races in races, there fun and very informative as well as exciting! great video!
I must say that Sea Buscuit is a wonderful film but this is the first time I have seen this match race for real......my goodness watching that was awesome. They just went hell for leather all the way and the way Sea Buscuit powered away at the end was mightily impressive.
i love this race and one of my favorite movie of all time!!!.... thanks for uploading this video....very historical, epic!!! love to watch it over and over again!!!

@123Hawkkfire Or to put it another way, War Admiral was Seabiscuit's half uncle but was younger than Seabiscuit.
