This is a five-star movie for any horse lover. It lifts your spirits because of its intense plot. Seeing a blind horse being able to race is a wonderful thing

This is a great movie and it really hit home as we have a 15 year old blind Arabian mare. Even though she is blind she is smart, a great trail horse and mother. She has the courage to prove not all blind horses are worthless. She will never be sold and has found a loving home with us. Though she has been banned from riding competition due to her blindness she is taken on long trail rides, and loves to go. She is great and we love her. If you watch this movie it will help you see that not all people are cruel.

I bought this movie right after renting it long time ago. I found it touching an heartwarming. Only movie in my collection it would compeate for tops is Dark Horse. This Movie shows not everything is like it seems an even handicaps can go though life an come in the top

I rarely write this type of commentary but this movie is so bad, maybe I can steer a few people away from wasting their money. I love horse and horseracing movies even the not so great ones. But this made my list of all time worst movies of any genre. Predictable story line and terrible acting all the way around. However, if you are interested in listening to the constant whiney bantering of a bunch of geeky teenagers, then this movie is for you.

Want a great horse movie? Check out "King of the Wind", 5+ stars!

I think the movie Primo Baby is very real. I own a blind mare and before i bought her the previous owner wanted to put her to sleep. after i bought her nobody believed she could be entered in a three day event because she was fully blind. we practiced all summer and i entered her in the fall. she did so well and won a first place! the movie Primo Baby was ver realistic and true. a lot of people put a horse/ animal down because they are blind. i think that is totally wrong because people aren't put down just because they are disabled!

Paschal Draney (Esther Purvis-Smith) is a tough, no-nonsense tomboy who works as a runner for bookies at the track. Social Services steps in, and the girl is put in a foster home. Charles Armstrong (Duncan Regehr), a wealthy horse breeder, hopes that his new foster-daughter will befriend his wheelchair-bound teenage son, Clancy (Tim Battle). Instead, Paschal takes a shine to a different handicapped resident at the farm, a nearly-blind horse called Primo Baby. With the aid of a seeing-eye horse, Saygold, Paschal and Primo Baby earn the right to compete in a prestigious race. High drama, but entertaining.

Primo Baby is very realistic! I have a horse called Black Jack who is blind in his left eye and is missing his right eye. I enter him in jumping competitions and we almost always get first or second place. My little sister who is only 4 rides him in younger child's classes and wins! Jack is just as good (maybe better) than any horse that can see perfectly! I ride him in my riding lessons. Only one thing really scares him and that is when other horses sneak up on him. He always has to be at the back of the line because of this.
