In the film, upon being unimpressed at first seeing the horse at the stables, Phar Lap's American owner Dave Davis (Ron Leibman) asks trainer Harry Telford (Martin Vaughan) why he hadn't written to anyone in New Zealand before buying the horse "sight unseen from a god damned catalog". This was actually incorrect. Harry Telford's brother Hugh lived in New Zealand and it was he, at the request of his brother and on behalf of Davis, who actually bid for and bought Phar Lap for 160 guineas at the 1928 Trentham Yearling Sales. Davis had in fact authorized Hugh Telford to bid as high as 190 guineas for the horse.
