Seabiscuit - S15 E11

Premiered On: 04/21/2003

Despite his boxy build, stumpy legs, scraggly tail and ungainly gait, Seabiscuit was one of the most remarkable thoroughbred racehorses in history. His wealthy owner, Charles Howard; his silent and stubborn trainer, Tom Smith; and the two gifted jockeys who rode him to glory, turned Seabiscuit into a national hero. Based on the bestselling book by Laura Hillenbrand.
