Re: [RC] Hidalgo - Charles

I wondered where the horses in the opening scene of Seabiscuit got their
shoes.  Obviously they are depending on a Farrier variation of Johnny
Appleseed wandering the west shoeing wild horses.  That or Hidalgo passed
them on to his offspring.

Fun movie but not great. What was really good was it jazzed me up for this
coming weekend at Sand Hills (first ride of the season for us)! Wish the
movie had more horse scenes! Watching Hidalgo run away with the herd of
wild
ones with his steel shoes flashing while none of the others had shoes made
me wonder how he was going to do in a few weeks when those shoes become
loose and starting tearing up is hooves? Funny how you notice little
things.
