He saves the life of Joel Clegg, holder of the mortgage, who wants to sell the Murray ranch to Sylvia Hunter, a pretty girl from the East, and her Aunt Penelope. Sylvia admires his courage, but he wins small thanks from Joel, who plots to have him thrown in the race. Tom takes the lead in the race, but is roped from ambush by Joel's henchmen. He overcomes them after the other riders have passed him and rides his horse for a win. Taking the prize money he goes to settle with Joel, who reluctantly hands him the mortgage. The paper turns out to be a forgery and Joel is arrested. Tom then brings his mother the glad news that they own the ranch free and clear and that he has won two prizes, namely a rich purse and Sylvia Hunter.
