 After becoming established in the harness racing community, Amber introduced actor Brian Hogg into it.His character, Hoggy, was developed over a period during which Brian immersed himself in the lifestyle, contributed to the development of the script, and participated in other essential tasks such as set building and horse training.In contrast, Darren Bell, who played Billy, his son, came directly into his first film role from a background of life on an inner-city housing estate.
