Summary

Ruffian's tragic story still has a powerful hold over horse racing enthusiasts. The big, almost-black filly so dominated her peers that none could get near her on the racetrack. Then came the fateful match against Kentucky Derby winner Foolish Pleasure--the race in which she lost her life.
