In a blizzard, Fred rescues Zeke, his employer, and saves the horses and cattle from a hungry puma. Later, a colt, under Fred's care, grows into a magnificent horse. Zeke, who is indebted to Stanton, surrenders several horses, including Silver King, to him, but Zeke decides to keep Silver King when Stanton mistreats the horse. Fred is enamored of Lucindy, Zeke's daughter, and rescues her when Black Eagle, who is being primed for the cross-country race, runs away with her and is injured. Consequently, Zeke enters Silver King in the race. At a party given by Lucindy, Fred is angered by Stanton's attentions to her; and Stanton's men plot to abduct Silver King before the race. Fred pursues and wins a last-minute victory over Stanton's entry.
