The Fiddling Horse is a dark comedy following Leslie Heart, a woman who inherits a racehorse and teams up with an ex-celebrity jockey to secretly execute a long-con to cash in on the monetary and social winnings at the racecourse. (IMDb)

Foxtrot X-Ray provided about 20 VFX shots to this indie film, including numerous shots where a digital birthmark was added to the titular horse, and a sequence where a new jockey was inserted into archival footage of an actual horse race from the past.
