Pete wants to prove himself a good judge of horse flesh and check out the heard for any really good horses to bring back for the ranch. At first his eyes set on a big black stallion Pete names 'The Ebony Whip' but as the days go by, he notices a quiet gray stallion in with the mares who is smart and quick as a cat and turns his focus on watching and learning him.
