Pollard was a "track-rat" hanging around race tracks trying to get hired to ride people's horses. The actual meeting of these two men happened because of Howard's trainer Tom Smith. In his time, Smith was an uncoventional trainer, Howard an unconventional owner, Pollard an unconventional jockey (much taller than most jockeys) and of course Seabiscuit was an unconventional race horse. Just an added-most people don't know that War Admiral and Seabiscuit were related.
Seabiscuit's jockey in real life was Johnny "Red" Pollard, but he was not raised in an orphanage and I have never heard of him travelling the world or being bitten by a spider.Tobey Maguire may have done these things, but he was not Seabiscuit's real jockey; he played Red Pollard in the movie Seabiscuit.
