Alfred Larribee is sent by his father to live with his cousin's family in the West. Larribee proves to be lazy and shiftless... spending most of his time in town... drinking and gambling... even cheating at cards. What changes all this is the appearance of Sky Blue... a magnificent stallion that has never been ridden. Dan Gurry is the owner and hopes to find a cowboy who can ride Sky Blue... but the first one to try is seriously injured. After that no one is willing to volunteer to try again except Larribee.
