Spunky at Yonkers Raceway - Set Your DVR!
« on: September 08, 2023, 04:29:32 PM »
A short 1956 film titled "Tale of a Trotter" will be shown on TCM tomorrow morning, September 9th at 8:09am.  It's about a horse named "Spunky".  It shows his birth, training and up to his first lifetime race at Yonkers Raceway!  Here's a link to the IMDB page for this film:

A tip for recording this - These shorts don't always start on time, so I record the program at 8am and add 30 minutes to the recording time.  BTW, the Yonkers announcer is the legendary Marty Glickman.

Thank you. All these TCM shorts are a lot of fun to watch especially the Crime Doesn’t Pay series.
