Trivia
Let it Ride was filmed at Hialeah Race Course in south Florida during the tracks' off season. Racing was being conducted at nearby Calder Race Course, and Dreyfuss was spotted on several occasions, presumably researching his role as Trotter. Although this classic track was closed for many years, the facility was reopened in 2009 offering only Quarter Horse racing as opposed to the Thoroughbred racing that Hialeah traditionally offered.

Continuity: The racehorse owners say their horse is running on Saturday, yet the day of the race Trotter opens the Daily Racing Form dated Wednesday, January 25th, 1989. See more »Soundtracks
