Based on the short story by D.H. Lawrence about a little boy who can predict racing horse winners when he gets on his wooden rocking horse. [BFI] "I like the short scene where Oscar and Paul visit Goodwood races for the day to watch Paul's fancy Daffodil run in the 5F sprint - especially the opening shot from Trundle Hill looking down the racecourse towards the course and stands. The camera work showing the crowd, betting ring, paddock and racing precisely portray why a young boy would find his first day at the races so fascinating." - Martin Vinnie Smith (https://www.britishhorseracingmovies.uk/the-rocking-horse-winner)
