Dermot Weld: Actually, Michael, I'm taking both.
Sir Michael Smurfit: Media Puzzle? I thought we decided he was headed for the knackery?
Dermot Weld: Hm, it's taken him eighteen months to build his nerve back, but believe me, it's back. He is flying.

Excellent Film, Recommended for Horse Racing Fans as is based on true events, Gets you en-thrilled with the action, Hopefully there will be other films done Similar to this on some of the UK's main Races such as the Grand National, Epsom Derby, Cheltenham Gold Cup etc.

Simiarilities to this film are Secretriat, which is nowhere near as realistic as The Cup, I thought Brendon Gleeson Did a excellent job playing the trainer Dermot Weld. To improve this film the only thing I think they could of done to improve it is have the Jockey's played by themselves.

As mentioned at the start though, a brilliant film to watch for all horse racing lovers, whether thats owners, trainers, jockey's or backers.
