Aroview: Exhilarating documentary following the fate of six trainers as they attempt to gain a place in the most esteemed horse race in the world 'The Kentucky Derby.'

Amateur production values should not deter from the keen portrayal of the trainers, whose personalities and backgrounds are fascinatingly disparate. An all-access pass into every major horse race of the year gives an enjoyable ‘behind-the-scenes’ feel to the film, although one is left wishing there was more footage of the beautiful horses.
