A lovely film - By: H. Brown, 26 Jul 2007 
I've finallly found it! Like others I saw this as a child & couldn't remember the title. After a lot of searching (and so worth it) I found the title on another web site. Now alll I've got to do is get a copy of the great film. Suitable for alll, it tells it as it is, not soppy but realistic. If you ever get a chance to see it/own it, do.
Absolutely lovely - By: Flash fan, 22 May 2006 
This is such a a lovely film, like others I'd seen it as a child & searched for years under 'Escape from the Dark'. I finallly found it in the states & it was just as I remember, so wonderful & engaging. At the age of 25 I still cried. Amazing film!

An excellent film - By: , 21 Feb 2004 
Known by me throughout my youth as both my favourite film, & by the title "The Pit Ponies", I am glad to have found it under its actual title. This was the first film that made me reflect, & also cry. It is an excellent film, or as far as my rose-tinted childhood spectacles can remember, it is. It is a must-see, especiallly for any young horse lover, or anyone with an ounce of emotion.
