The Million Dollar Handicap
Thoroughbred nags prancing-bugle and bells sounding-roaring multitudes-cheers, groans, laughs-these are the enjoyable features of "The Million Dollar Handicap," the greatest turf picture of all time.
Overview
After buying the filly Dixie following a strong finish Southern horse breeder John Porter discovers she has been doped for the contest. When he is paralyzed from a fall from Dixie his son, Alan, embezzles money from the bank to save the family finances.
