Sir Charles Hare gambles his all on one of his horses at Ascot. But the horse is 'pulled' on the instructions of Hardwick, a big bookmaker, and Sir Charles is forced to sell his Irish estate - including the racing stud that was the chief delight of his life. However, his aunt, Lady Anne, attends the sale and buys a promising foal which she intends to raise in secret for Charles...
