    A delight to see this very old, rare John Ford film from 1925. True it is still vintage and a bit sentimental in the way of most Ford films, but he tells a joyous, wholesome racing tale with a wonderful performance from J. Farrell MacDonald as an old racetrack trainer/Irish cop who knows his way around a camera. He does more with one set of eyebrows than any three actors. Forget some of the silliness and enjoy the fast pace and energy of the filmmaking. Thanks for posting this Jon!
