... at the Big T, Derby Day, so too did the fans for Dark Invader, Calcutta, 1930 something.

".. the whole of Calcutta took him into their hearts. Just like an idol outside a stage door, police escort had to be requested on race days. For every race Dark Invader was running, the frenzied crowd who lined the rail, chanted 'Darkie, Darkie, Darkie' ".

"The Dark Horse" by Rumer Godden. A true story which has become a legend in Calcutta's racing circle.

Or you can wait for the movie.
