This DVD edition from TeleVista is likely not worth the money asked. TeleVista product is generally of poor visual quality.
The film is likely accompanied by a soundtrack of compiled preexisting recordings.

This DVD edition of Thundering Hoofs should be of the same quality as the TeleVista edition noted above.
Way overpriced for the low quality of the product.
