Who rode a horse named seabiscuit was bitten by a genetically modified spider and when raised in an orphanage decided to leave and see the world with Charlize Theron?
Seabiscuit's jockey in real life was Johnny "Red" Pollard, but he was not raised in an orphanage and I have never heard of him travelling the world or being bitten by a spider.Tobey Maguire may have done these things, but he was not Seabiscuit's real jockey; he played Red Pollard in the movie Seabiscuit.
How many records did Seabiscuit set?
I believe the Jockey Club, which is the American registry for Thoroughbreds, lists Seabiscuit's official height as 15.2HH. His height was diminished in the movie to portray the match race between Biscuit and War Admiral as a 'David and Golieth' type of situation. Which is why War Admiral's height was enhanced in the movie from his real 15.3HH to a whopping 18HH. The effect did heighten the suspence but I always feel that it's best to stay with just the facts.
