Sporting Blood

Horse breeder Jim Rellence (Ernest Torrence) grows attached to colt Tommy Boy and initially resists selling him, but eventually must. Tommy Boy is a success on the track, and is sold twice more, ending with crooked and abusive gambler Scanlon (Lew Cody). When Scanlon must flee gangsters, Tommy Boy falls to card dealer Rid Riddle (Clark Gable) and his girlfriend, Ruby (Madge Evans), who rejects Rid's hope to race Tommy Boy honestly and instead tries to reunite the horse with Jim.
