Circum stances force the colonel to sell the second colt and his son, Morgan, sent to complete the sale, gambles with the money, loses and is cast off by the father. Blue Grass is prepared for the big race of the season and Kelley, after bribing the starter to leave the horse at the barrier, buys My Lady from the colonel, promising to sell the mare back should tho colonel s entry win the race. Blue Grass wins tne race ana Kelley, who would "welch." finally is forced to stand by his agreement Mor. gan, a young chap who has lost on the colonel's horses, recovers on the final race, falls in love with the colonel's daughter, and tha two bring about a reconciliation between father and son.

The two decide to elope and take refuge for the night with friend of the family, Sir Jasper, when their chaise overturns. The irate parents set out after the fugitives and are also welcomed by Sir Jasper, who smoothes over the difficulties and C'ruikshank approves of the wedding. In London the girl is trapped in a burning loft. Sir Jasper rescuing her from the flames and suffering many burns.
