Truly unique and utterly magnificent horse. I recently watched the movie and cried bitter tears at the end for the loss of him. Riding Phar Lap must have been like riding the wind. It must have felt like glory... ❤️
Pharlap was the best horse ever any horse that had the weights he had could not win today he would win any race today and even our best could not beat him at 2 miles and englands frankel and americas secretiat great champions in there ownright would not beat pharlap at any distance with the weight he had the best ever
Hi, Phar Lap, unique, one of a kind! Rare and never to be match my mom loved the movie so much as she loved the beauty and wonder of a beloved horse who seemed to know without understanding he was original and one of a kind! !
I come back here time to time to watch this video. My mum took me to see the movie when I was 12. I have loved him ever since. I love rags to riches story’s. However, I think they should have retired him when the racing club started to add weight for his races. And unfortunately the owners became to dam greedy. All these years later, do we really know what happened to him? There’s so many stories, isn’t it just coincidental that he wins a race in America and suddenly dies a short time after? RIP Pharlap aka Bobby ♥️
He is up there with the great big chestnuts fro the US. Man o War, Seabiscuit and Secretariat. They can all be traced back to the same mare Pocahontas.'
Poor animal , used and abused by greedy egotistic beings , cruel trainers and handlers , whipped and kicked for the entertainment of the wealthy , useless owners couldn't even protect this animal , some beings should never be in the horse industry or trainers , what a sad ending for a great animal , this horse should have been retired in a great meadow , but these greedy pricks couldn't let go .
Peter Pumpkin .Tommy accidentally poisoned him. In Mexico border he let him out to graze and he ate something bad you tube /google it .This guy said tommy told him ,so he waited till he died ,he was so upset
Everytime I think about this horse I am so upset because those assholes killed him. What a beautiful animal and jealous assholes killed him. Let them burn in hell forever!
He was a beautiful horse. I painted an awesome oil of him that’s hanging on my wall. One of my best works.
I saw the movie and to this day will still bring me to tears ..what a truly incredible horse
He wasn’t just a horse! He was the best…
The movie is the BEST horse racing movie of all time and I’ve seen them all.😊

Just thinking about Phar Lap and his death makes me cry.In the movie it said he died of colic but years later did he die of poisoning?
Yes, I believe it was confirmed poisoning. Read that recently. Very 😞
In 2010 scientists confirmed it was arsenic
