You actually saw Run For the Roses? I'm shocked. It didn't make much of an impact at the box office.
If you like horses Central Kentucky is the place to visit. You can tour most of the horse farms. And while you're at it take a trip on the Bourbon Trail. You don't have to like bourbon to appreciate the distillery tours.
Another fun fact. Back in the 80's my wife and I were on a private tour of Claiborne Farm in Paris, Ky and when we came to Secretariat grazing in the field the tour guide grabbed a handful of his tail hair, yanked it off and gave it to us. I saved that for years until in got accidentally thrown out several years ago.
I would have cried being in the same space as that horse.
What a wonderful experience you and your wife had.
