    Desc: Blue Grass: Directed by Charles M. Seay. With Thomas A. Wise, Clara Whipple, George Soule Spencer, Ray Tuckerman. At a race, My Lady, a horse belonging to Colonel Taylor, wins, but is injured so seriously that she will be unable to run again. Wilfred Warren wagers a large sum on the mare, but is cheated out of his winnings by Kelley, an unscrupulous character of the track. The next year, Colonel Taylor, being in straitened circumstances, breeds My Lady, and Blue Grass, a striking colt, is born. Another year and the Colonel starts to break and train Blue Grass. Another colt is born. Finances become tighter. In the meantime Warren meets Virginia, the Colonel's daughter, a love affair resulting. The Colonel, compelled to sacrifice the second colt, sends his son, Morgan, who, forced to accept a much smaller sum than expected, stakes the money on a "sure tip" and loses. In his anger the Colonel casts him off, ordering him out of the house. Kelley, in an effort to buy My Lady, meets Virginia and determines to get her, as he determines to get the mare. Just before the race in which Blue Grass is entered, the Colonel, badly in need of money, sells the mare to Kelley upon the latter's promise to sell her back, in the event of Blue Grass winning the race. The Colonel uses the money received for a side bet on his horse, and Kelley frames the race against him. Morgan, now Kelley's cashier, meets Warren, who. on learning Morgan's identity, brings about a meeting between him and Virginia, and caught red-handed by the Colonel, is forbidden to see Virginia again. On learning Kelley's intentions, Morgan quits Kelley. In the race, Blue Grass is left flat-footed by the bribed starter, but starts after the rest and wins. Warren, learning of Kelley's plot to steal My Lady, evens up old scores, bringing about a reconciliation and all ends as it should.
