Synopsis
Edison summary: A novel and exciting entertainment. Shows a race course around a large lake used for "Shooting the Chutes" and many exciting races. Two cowboys and a girl ride in "A Race for a Bride." The winner catches his prize and lifts her to his horse as they pass at full speed. The "Jockey Race" is very exciting and ends in a dead heat. The "Standing Roman Race" and "Chariot Race" recall the days of the old Roman Circus, and the recklessness of the drivers in their efforts to win make a thrilling scene.
