Movie Info

Horse breeder Jim Rellence (Ernest Torrence) grows attached to colt Tommy Boy and initially resists selling him, but eventually must. Tommy Boy is a success on the track, and is sold twice more, ending with crooked and abusive gambler Scanlon (Lew Cody). When Scanlon must flee gangsters, Tommy Boy falls to card dealer Rid Riddle (Clark Gable) and his girlfriend, Ruby (Madge Evans), who rejects Rid's hope to race Tommy Boy honestly and instead tries to reunite the horse with Jim.

This is the flick that earned the up-and-coming Gable top-billing.

Audience Reviews for Sporting Blood

Jan 02, 2014

Minor drama, horse lovers would probably give it another star, that would be totally forgotten if Gable wasn't in it. He exudes more presence and star quality than the entire rest of the cast combined.
