Dream Horse

Dream Alliance was born on March 23rd 2001. As seen in the film his mother died during his birth from exhaustion and his father, Bien Bien, died just a year later, aged 13. At the time of the film's general release, in May 2021, Dream Alliance was alive and well, having retired from racing in 2012.

At 54 minutes Janet is putting newspaper cuttings on the wall of the bar where she works. One mentions Dream Alliance finishing third at Ffos Las.....Ffos Las wasn't built until 2009, well after Dream Alliance's career started.

In the final scene before the credits actually roll, the film cast, along with the real-life Jan Vokes, Brian Vokes, and Howard Davies, collectively sing an over-the-top version of Delilah, originally sung by Welsh singer Tom Jones.
