John Duffy, who holds the mortgage on the stable, attempts to use it to force Claire to marry him, but she refuses, citing her love for Garrison, who has been gone for 5 years. Garrison returns just before the big race and, recalling that Duffy persecuted him in the Army, sets out to bankrupt the Duffy stables, not knowing that he is working against the woman he loves. Garrison buys Jackdaw, the only racehorse fast enough to beat Wildfire, the prize Duffy filly. Duffy then sets the Duffy stables on fire in order to discredit Garrison, who is blamed for the fire, and to ruin Claire by killing Wildfire; the horse is saved, however. Duffy hires a jockey named Chappie Raster to ride Wildfire, plotting with him to throw the race. Claire outwits Duffy, however, and Wildfire wins by a nose. Claire and Garrison clear things up between them, and Duffy is left out in the cold. Written by AFI See less
