The filly Dontletsweetfoolya and her goat, Doris
There s a scene in the 2003 motion picture Seabiscuit where trainer Tom Smith cradles a goat in his arms as he walks along the road on owner Charles Howard s California ranch leading to the stable where the movie s cantankerous main character has been keeping his connections on their toes.
“Goat racing?” Howard, played by actor Jeff Bridges, asks.
“Oh, no. Just trying to calm him down a little,” fellow Academy Award winner Chris Cooper, playing Smith, answers. “The smart ones, they hate being alone all the time. Sometimes, another animal just soothes them a bit.”
