Behind the Scenes on '50 to 1'

The cast of "50 to 1" looked back on their experiences while filming the movie about Mine That Bird's 2009 Kentucky Derby victory, including the big fight scene that starred both Christian Kane and Skeet Ulrich performing their own stunts.

In a "50 to 1" scene, a gentleman during the Pre-Derby party said "this year we have horses from Ireland, France, United Arab Emirates and even from New Mexico..." You know who opened that door? Venezuelans Gustavo Avila (jockey), Juan Arias (trainer), Pedro Baptista (owner) and Juan Quintero (groom) when they traveled to Louisville in 1971 to win 97th Kentucky Derby with Canonero II, a horse born in United States and bred in Venezuela. It was a very similar Mine That Bird´s performance.

En una escena de "50 a 1" un encopetado señor durante la fiesta para los propietarios y entrenadores dice "éste año tenemos caballos de Irlanda, Francia, Emiratos Árabes Unidos y hasta de Nuevo México..." ¿Saben quienes abrieron esa puerta? Los venezolanos Gustavo Ávila (jinete), Juan Arias (entrenador), Pedro Baptista (propietario) y Juan Quintero (caballerizo) cuando viajaron a Louisville en 1971 para ganar el Derby de Kentucky No. 97 con Cañonero II, un caballo nacido en Estados Unidos y criado en Venezuela. Su hazaña se parece mucho a la de Mine That Bird.
