Plot summary

Drifting and down on his luck cowboy Ted Daniels captures a beautiful mustang, names her Bess and teaches her a variety of tricks. Fate turns on him when he rides Bess into town where she causes expensive damage to motor vehicles as Ted drinks in a bar. Ted thinks his luck will change by winning a large prize in a local rodeo, but the unscrupulous carnival owner, who wants Bess to appear in his show, has one of his stooges cover the horns of the steer Ted is to wrestle with slippery oil breaking Ted's leg in the process.

Having no money, Ted sells Bess to the traveling carnival where she is mistreated and forced into performing in their show. As Ted recovers he plans to reunite with Bess.
