To celebrate Allie's homecoming, the father gives her a beautiful white horse, named Roger, which the boys call "The Pride of the Ranch." Betty is pleased to have her sister home and to have her receive Roger, but not to have Ned Roberts spend so much of his time with her. She is unaware that Ned and Allie are only planning an engagement ring for her. Bert Andrews is also displeased with Ned, for he wants Allie to himself. Allie, however, takes a dislike to him and is delighted when Ned declares that Roger can easily beat Bert's famous horse, "Beauty." The men bet heavily, and Bert bribes Bill, one of the Allen cowboys, to note Roger's speed, and notify him at once. Bill obeys, and as a result, Bert pays him to secret Roger until after the race is over. To do this, Bill is obliged to chloroform Joe, the trainer. He then takes Roger to a hiding place. The cowboys all turn out, however, and soon trace "The Pride of the Ranch" and bring him safely home in time to start for the track. Ned, Allie and her father start for the race. Joe, upon attempting to mount the horse, finds he is too weak to ride. Not daring to trust one of the boys to ride Roger, Betty dresses in Joe's clothes, enters the track as the trainer and wins the race before anyone recognizes her. Allie is delighted with her quiet little sister and sends Ned hurrying after her with the delayed engagement ring, while she walks proudly off past Bert with "The Pride of the Ranch."
