Liz Taylor did MOST of her own riding in the outdoor landscape scenes. We can SEE that it's her. HOWEVER, unless I'm wrong a stunt double was used for the racing scenes here, and Liz was just green screened for the closups. The "Rider Velvet" is proportionately different from Liz herself. It might even be a stunt MAN!! Overall I liked the movie, however I thought WTF?! when Mi Chopped off Velvet's beautiful hair so she could disguise herself as a boy.
She was disqualified because she fell off; the jockey must remain in the saddle until the horse exits the track. I loved this movie so much as a kid back in the 50's. Such a great story about believing in yourself and your dream.
Whoever put this soundtrack on with this clip should be ashamed - really ashamed.
Yeah I was looking forward to seeing the clip
Well said
I agree
Probably a bypass attempt

Unbelievable story.....but then Red Rum's story was even more unbelievable...
Magical race!
Great film, and thanks for posting, but it was a terrible choice in music.

Great film...music put me off here though. Doesn't really go well with a horserace
Probably a bypass attempt
And yet the press was all over them
Why the idiotic soundtrack?...
Probably a bypass attempt
why the hell with music?Can't stand to watch it!

Sweet film, but the course looks nothing like Aintree.

I love velvet with short hair
music is suitably terrible

Terrible soundtrack. Wimpy voice. Ruined the great race.
