Phar Lap, a classic Australian film from the early 80s with a great cast featuring Tom Burlinson that seems to have been forgotten about.





There was another film made about 6 years ago about another legendary NZ horse that won the Melbourne Cup which was pretty good too.

Kiwi (TV Movie 2018) ⭐ 7.8 | Drama

Kiwi: Directed by Thomas Robins. With Nick Blake, Rachel Bock, Alison Bruce, Patrick Carroll. This is the enthralling story of Kiwi, the horse a farmer's wife bought for $1000 that went on to win the Melbourne Cup in 1983. An 18-year-old jockey called Jimmy Cassidy was the rider.
