00:44Well, what do you say to that, Lucas?
00:46Well, I say if I were a betting man, I'd put my money on you in that Charity Day race
00:50Saturday.
00:51Thanks, Lucas.
00:52Now, come on, son. We'd better get back to the ranch.
00:55You got a good one this time, Gabe.
01:09I told you to get rid of those horses, didn't I?
01:12Mr. Preston, it's just my broodmare and my stallion in this coal here.
01:15You're a sharecropper.
01:17I've fed you and your wife and your three kids for almost a year now.
01:21I didn't bargain on you wasting all your time training those horses.
01:25You might as well quit pushing, Mr. Preston.
01:28You gave me an option to buy this land, and I'm going to buy it.
01:30Nothing you can do to me is going to change it.
01:33Maybe so.
01:34But you better get rid of those horses, because if you don't, I'm going to shoot them and use them
01:37for wolf bait.
01:56Oh, you're going to show your pretty heels to all of them.
02:00I can't wait to see the eyes bug out on them big horse buyers from Denver.
02:04Huh?
02:05There you are, boy.
02:06Feel better?
02:15Molly?
02:18Molly, where are you?
02:24Molly!
02:25And where would I be, Gabe Fenway, except right here getting your dinner the same as I've been doing for
02:30the past 15 years?
02:33Lucas just timed Sapphire for me.
02:3623 seconds flat.
02:37Oh, boy, honey, we're going to win us a race.
02:40And with the money I'm going to get from that coat, we're going to make old Jake Preston eat crow
02:44like he's never done before in his life.
02:46I saw Jake Preston talking to you.
02:48What did he want this time?
02:49Just complaining about me keeping the horses on the place as I'm wasting time on them.
02:53Why can't he leave us alone?
02:56Because it ain't his way.
02:58But you've held up your end of the bargain.
03:00Yeah, that's just it, honey, I have.
03:01And he never figured I would.
03:03Now, come on, let me worry about that end of it, huh?
03:07It's my worry, too.
03:09Because I see what it's doing to you.
03:11And I feel I caused it with my complaining.
03:15Honey, you never complained a day in your life.
03:19A dozen times I've pulled up stakes and moved on, and you never said a word about it.
03:26And I won't this time, if you want to move along.
03:29No, no, mommy, not this time.
03:31Because that's exactly what Jake Preston's counting on.
03:33He never figured I'd stick it.
03:35That's why he gave me the option to buy this place.
03:37And he never figured I'd raise the money to pick it up.
03:39But that coat's going to give it to us.
03:41Now, let's forget about it, huh?
03:44Oh.
03:45Hey, you want to come into town, Miss Avenue, and pick up supplies?
03:47Oh, I think I'd better be here when the kids get home from school.
03:50You go ahead.
03:52All right.
03:53The list is right there on the table.
03:55But first, you're going to sit right down and have your dinner.
04:02These kids of us sure do go through shoes, don't they?
04:07Oh, that looks good.
04:16What are you daydreaming about, Mark?
04:1923 seconds.
04:21That's pretty fast, isn't it?
04:22Huh?
04:23Oh, you mean Gabe Sapphire Colt, huh?
04:26Well, it's no world's record for a quarter horse,
04:29but I figure it's fast enough to beat any horse that'll be in that race.
04:32Well, how fast do you figure a blue boy can run?
04:34Blue boy?
04:35Hard to say.
04:36I'd sure like to time him sometime.
04:39But you wanted to make a cutting horse out of him.
04:41I do.
04:42Mr. Fenway's going to sell Sapphire, isn't he?
04:45Well, there's always a lot of horse buyers from up north
04:48watching these quarter horse races.
04:49Winning horse usually brings a good price.
04:51I wouldn't sell blue boy, even if he won.
04:54Well, you're not Mr. Fenway trying to make a home for a wife and three children.
04:59Say, Paul, just for fun, just so I'd know,
05:02could we time blue boy?
05:04I guess so sometime.
05:05We can measure out a quarter of a mile.
05:07Oh, but I've already got one measured.
05:09You've been running that horse?
05:12But Paul, blue boy loves to run more than anything.
05:15He wouldn't be much of a horse if he didn't, would he?
05:17All right, let me have that watch of yours.
05:19Oh, great.
05:19I'll get him saddle.
05:40How's that?
05:4122.
05:4222?
05:43And I didn't even let him out.
05:45He can do better than that.
05:46That's enough.
05:47You cool him out now.
05:48All right.
05:58Paul, look at these banners.
06:00Aren't they something?
06:01They really decked the town out for the charity day very soon.
06:04Yep.
06:05They're those same horse buyers over here last year.
06:08I don't care how much they offer me, though.
06:10I won't sell them blue boy, even if I do win the race.
06:12Just when did we decide you were going to enter blue boy in the race?
06:15Oh, Paul, could I?
06:17Would you let me?
06:18They say anybody can enter the race, right?
06:20He's riding the rules.
06:22Well, we'll take it over a while.
06:23Then we'll decide, son.
06:24All right.
06:30Well, hello there, Lucas.
06:32Dick.
06:33How you been?
06:34No complaints.
06:36Say, that was a mighty fine stand of wheat that Gabe Fenway brought in for you.
06:39Well, it could have been a sight better if he attended the business.
06:42That's how it goes.
06:43You try to help a man, and he'll take advantage of you every time.
06:47Now, he's supposed to be raising wheat for me on shares.
06:50Not fooling around with those broken-down nags, I hear.
06:54Mr. Preston, those are about the best horses this country's ever seen.
06:57Oh, you an expert, are you, son?
07:00I know a fast horse when I see one.
07:03Well, if that is so, you can make a lot of money.
07:06Ain't that right, Lucas?
07:07Well, Mr. Preston, from what I hear, more folks go broke than get rich picking fast horses.
07:12This cold of yours, blue boy, you figure he's pretty fast?
07:16He's faster than Mr. Fenway's Sapphire.
07:18We timed him both, didn't we, Paul?
07:21Oh, you, uh, you plan on entering him in the big race?
07:26Well, I'd like to.
07:28Paul, he'd let me.
07:29Let you a while, but he's just busting with pride, because you're going to do it.
07:33Ain't that so, Lucas?
07:34I haven't decided yet, Jake.
07:36Why not?
07:37You've got a fast horse.
07:38Yeah, Paul, why not?
07:40What's the matter?
07:41You're afraid the boy will get beat?
07:43Is that it?
07:43The boy knows nobody wins every time, Mr. Preston.
07:47I know I can win this one.
07:49Well, that's the kind of confidence I like to hear.
07:52That's the way to go about it, son.
07:53You just find out what you want, and you just go right out and get it.
07:56No matter what gets in your way.
07:58I'd sure like to race, blue boy.
08:01Sure you would.
08:02You do it.
08:04Well, I'll see you, Lucas.
08:08Paul, can I?
08:09Son, if you're going to race horses, there's one thing you ought to learn.
08:12Don't give away all your secrets.
08:14Then I can race them?
08:16Now, if I was about your age, and I had a horse as good as yours, I'd want to.
08:20You mean it?
08:21I mean it.
08:22Now, let me buy a Sastrilla.
08:24Yahoo!
08:39That's right, boy.
08:40Now, all you got to do is just get in there and run like you've been here.
08:43And forget about all those other horses.
08:45Just do your best.
08:47You're going to win.
08:48That horse ever talk back to your boy?
08:50Oh, hello, Mr. Preston.
08:52So you figure that that colt can run fast enough to beat Gabe Fenway's horse, huh?
08:57Well, like my pa says, you never know in a horse race.
09:00But I think he'll beat him.
09:03Mind you, let me see what he can do.
09:05I don't know.
09:06Oh, come on, boy.
09:09All right, Mr. Preston.
09:11You got a watch?
09:12Take him down to that big Supermore and then run him on the way back.
09:16If I beat Mr. Fenway, that won't keep him from selling his horse, will it?
09:20No, of course not.
09:21Come on, let me see him down.
09:34Hiya, Lucas.
09:35Gabe.
09:35Well, I hope you've got plenty of money to bet on that sapphire colt of mine.
09:38I couldn't do that.
09:39If I was a betting man, I'd have to keep it in the family.
09:41What do you mean, Mark's going to run Blue Boy?
09:43Talk me into it.
09:44Well, good for him.
09:45More the merrier.
09:46I'll tell you something, though.
09:47I'm glad that Blue Boy ain't been trained for racing.
09:50The boy's got quite a colt there.
09:51Well, the difference between my weight and his...
09:53That'll be a fine race, Gabe.
09:55I've got to go over and see Micah.
09:56Good luck to you.
09:57Thanks, Lucas.
10:06Oh, hello, Hattie.
10:09My missus gave me a list of stuff to get.
10:12Those kids are mine eating more every day.
10:14You go through shoes, man.
10:15I've never seen nothing like it.
10:16Gabe, I've got to talk to you.
10:18Well, sure, Hattie.
10:19I always got time to talk to her pretty woman.
10:22Gabe, there isn't any other way to tell you this except to just come right out and say it.
10:28Jake Preston told me not to give you any more credit.
10:33Well, Hattie, you know what I'm dealing with, Jake?
10:37I was to charge against his account until I brought the wheat crop in.
10:40Gabe, believe me, I know this.
10:42Well, then...
10:45Jake Preston's a pretty important man around this town.
10:48Now, that doesn't mean I have to like it.
10:51But it does mean that I have to run his account the way he wants it.
10:59Yeah, sure, Hattie.
11:02Sure, I understand that.
11:06Gabe,
11:09if you need food or something for the children...
11:12I ain't never took charity in my life.
11:13Ain't gonna start now.
11:19All right, you boys think so much of Fenway's coat.
11:22Let's see the color of your money.
11:24You're not running me on, Jake Preston.
11:26Not like you've done all the others.
11:27I got a deal with you and you're gonna live up to it.
11:29I intend to as soon as you start living up to your end of it.
11:33Not wasting all your time on those grass burners of yours.
11:36Why don't you say what you're really after, Jake?
11:38You're scared I'm gonna sell that coat for enough money to buy up my option on that land.
11:42Ain't that it?
11:43Well, if it is, it's because I don't want no sharecropper and his outlaw kids for neighbors.
12:09Here now, what's this all about?
12:11It's private.
12:11You stay out of it.
12:12You two have been spoiling for this long enough.
12:14Now, what's going on here?
12:15Oh, I call those nags of his grass burners, because that's what they are.
12:20You never had horses like them in your life, and you never will.
12:22Maybe not.
12:24But I don't see no sense in us fighting about it.
12:26Now, if that coat of yours is all you say is,
12:29why don't you put your money where your mouth is?
12:31Or you all talk.
12:33You know I ain't got no money to pet.
12:35All right.
12:36My share of the crop against yours, if your horse don't win.
12:40Now, wait a minute.
12:41Well, just as I thought, you're all mouth.
12:45Well, ain't you going to bet?
12:46Gabe, why don't you cool off?
12:48Now, wait a minute.
12:49I don't want me backing down on this.
12:51If your horse doesn't win, you forfeit.
12:55You won't hear that.
12:57All right.
13:00Gabe, you sure you know what you're doing?
13:03It's too late now.
13:07Mike, I don't like to see this kind of betting going on.
13:10There's no law to keep a man from betting on his own horse.
13:13It's more than a bet.
13:14You know that.
13:15I know.
13:16But I'd rather see him fight it out with horses than with guns,
13:18and that's what it was coming to.
13:20I wish I hadn't told Mark he could race.
13:22I wouldn't worry about it, Lucas.
13:24This fight is between two grown men.
13:27Mark will get mixed up in it anyway.
13:30I'm not too sure.
13:31Lucas!
13:32What do you think?
13:33Is Mark's cold as fast as Jake Preston says he is?
13:37I ain't bet yet, but I'm sure going to have that cold so fast.
13:40What are you talking about?
13:41Ain't you heard?
13:42Jake Preston just bet $1,000 that your son's coat's going to win the race.
13:56Mark, he's even faster than I thought he was.
13:59I couldn't get to sleep last night just thinking about him.
14:02Do you think I really got a good chance of winning?
14:05Mark, did you know that Jake Preston bet $1,000 on you?
14:09No fooling.
14:11That must mean he really thinks I'm going to win.
14:14Son, I don't like this betting business.
14:16I didn't know anything about it.
14:18It's all right, isn't it?
14:19I don't think so.
14:20It's gotten to be sort of a grudge fight between Jake Preston and Gabe Fenway.
14:25They never did like each other very much.
14:27You said so yourself.
14:29That's not the point.
14:30I don't want you getting tangled up in this sort of thing.
14:32But, Paul, I didn't do it.
14:34No, I know you didn't, but you've become a part of it, Mark.
14:38I can't help it if somebody wants to bet on me, can I?
14:42No, I suppose not.
14:44Mark, maybe you ought to wait till next year to race.
14:47Paul, you promised me.
14:49I've been counting on it most more than I've ever counted on anything before in my life.
14:54I know that.
14:56It's not just me, but I promised Blue Boy.
15:00I guess that sounds sort of silly, doesn't it?
15:04No, it's not silly, son.
15:05I understand.
15:07Then I can race him all right, can't I?
15:10Mark, don't get your heart set on that.
15:12I'm going into town.
15:14I'll see you later.
15:19Mark, don't forget to do your chores, huh?
15:21All right.
15:25Don't worry, Blue Boy.
15:27Paul let me race you.
15:29He knows how much it means to us.
15:53Hey there, Lucas.
15:55Sure hope your boy's taking good care of that horse of his.
15:58Why'd you bet a thousand dollars on him, Jake?
16:00Because I figure he's going to win.
16:02It doesn't make sense.
16:03You bet not much money.
16:05Unless you know something that doesn't meet the eye.
16:07Why are you pushing me for?
16:09I don't like what you're doing to Gabe Fenway.
16:11Doing to him?
16:12I take him in, give him a chance, feed him and his family.
16:15And what thanks do I get?
16:16Spends all of his time training those nags of his.
16:19It seems to me it's not the first time you've had trouble with tenants.
16:23You know, you're right.
16:24They're all the same.
16:26You try to help him, he'll take advantage of you.
16:28Now look at that outfit last year.
16:30Walked out on me just at harvest time.
16:32Leaving you with both shares of crop.
16:34You didn't lose any money, Jake.
16:36Now, Lucas, I ain't business to lose money.
16:40Either on my farming or my horse racing.
16:43That's what I thought.
16:44So I thought I better tell you.
16:45You can recall your bets on Mark.
16:47He's not racing.
16:50Well, I don't care what you say.
17:07It isn't fair.
17:07I know how you feel, Mark.
17:09No, you don't.
17:10Well, if you did, you wouldn't tell me I couldn't race.
17:13I've already told you, son.
17:15If you take part in it, you're going to get involved in a fixed race.
17:18Oh, I don't believe it.
17:20Well, as long as I race Blue Boy fair and square and do my best to win...
17:24I've already told you, Mark.
17:25The answer is no.
17:48There, Mark.
17:52Hello, Mr. Beston.
17:53Big day, huh, Mark?
17:56I guess so.
17:57What do you mean you guess so?
17:58You're going to win that race, ain't you?
17:59I'm not going to add to it.
18:01It changed my mind.
18:04Why do you have to go and spoil everything?
18:07Gee.
18:07You didn't have to bet all that money on me.
18:10That's why my pa won't let me race.
18:13Now, Mark, that's just what I wanted to tell you.
18:15Your pa is exactly right.
18:17There never should have been no betting in the first place.
18:19There ain't going to be none.
18:20He called it off?
18:21Sure.
18:23You see, Gabe and me had us a little quarrel and, well, we lost our tempers and behaved like a
18:29couple of kids.
18:30No, I take that back.
18:31We behaved like grown-ups.
18:33Kids got better sense.
18:37Well, if there's not going to be any betting...
18:40Then there ain't no reason for you not to race.
18:42I don't know.
18:44I shouldn't have sneaked off this morning without telling my pa.
18:47Now, your pa is just about as understanding a man as I ever met.
18:51You better go on up and sign up for your entry.
18:54I'll straighten out things with your pa.
18:56I promise you.
18:58No, sir.
18:59I got to wait until he gets into town.
19:02Oh, all right.
19:07In case McCain won't let his kid race, I may need me a little insurance.
19:15You better go over to the stable and take care of Gabe now.
19:19Now, you just take it easy now, Saffa.
19:29Take it easy.
19:30Remember what I told you.
19:32You keep going just like I told you.
19:34You're going to come home a winner.
19:36Understand?
19:37Just take it calm now.
19:38Take it easy.
19:45Come and get it, Mark.
19:47Mark.
19:51You're going to sleep all day, son?
19:55No reason why we can't go watch the race.
19:57We might learn something.
19:59You'll be running next year.
20:03Mikey tells me they got an Apache Indian with a trained bear.
20:08Mark?
20:12Mark.
20:34Mr. Fenway, the race is about to start.
20:38Where are you, Mr. Fenway?
20:42Mr. Fenway, what happened?
20:59I'll be right back, Mr. Fenway.
21:04Micah.
21:05Have you seen Mark?
21:07Just a minute ago, we went up to the stable to see Gabe.
21:10Mark.
21:11Mark, Mr. Fenway.
21:13Mr. Fenway.
21:20What happened?
21:21I don't know.
21:21I just came in here and it was like...
21:23Gabe.
21:24Gabe, who was it?
21:26Well, I don't know.
21:28Somebody wanted to make sure you weren't in that race.
21:31It doesn't take much guessing who.
21:32If Sapphire is not in the race, Gabe will forfeit his crop.
21:36And he's in no condition to ride.
21:39Now, wait a minute.
21:40Mark, you wanted to be in that race.
21:42The bet was on the horse, not the rider.
21:44You think you're up to it, son?
21:46You mean me riding Sapphire?
21:48That's what I mean.
21:50Sure.
21:50Get going, son.
21:52I'm sorry about what happened this morning.
21:53Talk about that later.
21:55Don't worry, Mr. Fenway.
21:57I'll ride Sapphire and we'll win.
21:59No matter what.
22:00Thanks, Bob.
22:03Come on, you other bird and horse cameers.
22:05Get them critters in line.
22:08No jump on the gun.
22:10Ed, get that horse back.
22:12Go ahead, Lucas.
22:13Watch the race.
22:14I'll take care of Gabe.
22:15Oh.
