Racing Stripes is a 2005 adventure/comedy movie, directed by Frederik Du Chau. It is similar in the style to the 1995 movie Babe
, in that the protagonist is a talking animal and the setting is a farm. The movie was filmed in Taiwan.

Plot

During a thunderstorm, a traveling circus leaves behind a baby Zebra. The foal is rescued by Nolan Walsh, a retired thoroughbread racehorse trainer. Nolan takes the Zebra home to his farm, and leaves it in the care of his daughter Channing, who names him "Stripes". The other farmyard animals try to educate him about life on the farm, but he is convinced that he is destined for the nearby racetrack, even though he knows he isn't a real racehorse. He spends his time training, helped by Tucker, a Shetland Pony who had helped coach champion racehorses in the past.

Channing has a similar ambition; to become a jockey. Her father had refused to let her train as he believes it to be too dangerous. However, her enthusiasm eventually wins Nolan over, and he agrees to train her and Stripes, with the aim of winning the illustrious Kentucky Open.

Tagline: His stripes made him an outcast. His heart made him a hero.
