☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Great Horse Race," Gabby Hayes becomes involved in a confrontation at a corral where he and others are cornered by villains. After narrowly escaping, Gabby and companions pursue three men who have stolen a valuable packet of diamonds from Custer and are hiding in the hills with a coyote. The story follows Gabby as he attempts to track down the thieves, with the action climaxing in a cyclone cellar where Gabby uses his wits to outwit the criminals and recover the stolen goods.
Loco Lew faces the boss's displeasure over his unshaved appearance, but the cowpoke has a simple explanation: when a group of cowhands shared the same mirror that morning, he ended up shaving someone else by mistake. It's a quick gag that proves sometimes a man's grooming troubles aren't what they seem.
Young Falcon rides to the Onadonta camp and discovers his friend Long Bow caught in the middle of a violent confrontation—accused by three men of stealing a valuable diamond packet. Convinced of Long Bow's innocence despite the sheriff's skepticism, Young Falcon shadows the accusers and uncovers evidence of a scheme far more cunning than a simple robbery. His keen eye and quick thinking expose the plotters and clear his friend's name.
A talkative visitor drops by Chief Greymatter's place with a story that just won't quit, but when the wind picks up, the Chief discovers an unexpected silver lining to all that chatter. This quick humor piece from 1951 plays on the classic setup of an unstoppable talker meeting an irresistible force—and finding that sometimes a gale-force wind has its uses.
When unscrupulous horse trader Harry Swapper plots to keep Gabby Hayes' scrappy mustang Corker out of the Cornpone Stakes—first with hidden rattlesnakes, then with an ambush—Gabby and his clever steed have other ideas. As race day arrives with a string of comedic mishaps and clever tricks, Corker must prove he's worth his weight in Western grit against a field of fancy thoroughbreds and their scheming owners.
