Synopsis
Johnny Hardwick inherits a thoroughbred, "Honeyblossom," and stakes his entire bankroll on her, but in rescuing Gwen Duffy from danger at the racetrack he causes his horse to lose. Later, in the city, Mr. Duffy hires Johnny as manager of his hotel, where he meets and falls in love with Margaret, the storekeeper's daughter. The appearance of his friend Molly results in a temporary rupture, and after winning money for Warren on Honeyblossom, Johnny goes away. A year later he returns and learns that Margaret is to marry Hi Simpkins. When Duffy brings Margaret to him, however, they are reunited.
