Seabiscuit was a famous racehorse (1933-1947), a grandson of the racehorse Man O' War. He is known well for his defeat of his distant cousin War Admiral in a 1938 match race, this especially being significant since Seabiscuit was only 15 hands high (very small for a Thoroughbred) whereas his opponent stood between 17 and 18 hands. Seabiscuit has been described as being sometimes lazy and sometimes feisty, and he is said to have had an odd swinging gait in which his right foreleg would thresh wildly forward "as though he was swatting flies."
No, Ted Knowles did not ride Seabiscuit. The famous racehorse was primarily associated with jockeys such as Red Pollard and George Woolf. Seabiscuit gained fame in the late 1930s and became a symbol of hope during the Great Depression, but Knowles was not one of the jockeys who competed on him.

Maguire's performance was well-received, contributing to the film's overall success.
