Drat! No clips or stills of Exterminator, the 1918 winner of the Kentucky Derby who won the race used in this film - almost running over the camera car during the filming.

Today is March 8, 2018 and I am here because of the book HERE COME EXTERMINATOR! by Eliza McGraw in which, on page 103, is mentioned the filming of the Hot Springs Handicap by the director Harry Revier for his film Challenge of Chance starring Jess Willard and Arline Pretty. The horse who won that race was the 1918 winner of the Kentucky Derby EXTERMINATOR and I was hoping to find at least a clip or still of EXTERMINATOR especially since the camera car got a little close to the horses in the stretch and Exterminator almost ran it over in his hurtling rush to the finish line. Yes, I am 'horse-mad' even at my advanced age.
Although I like the Duke, I am not a big fan. I am sorry that his investments didn't work out and he had to un-retire however. The movie business is grueling.
