In Saratoga, bookie Duke Bradley turns an eye to the daughter of the now deceased gambler and her millionaire fiancee, after winning a stud farm in lieu of gambling debts.
The film's mildly amusing, but silly just the same. Like why wouldn't Carol tell Madison that he's being hustled by Duke from the get-go and would Madison not see other price offers about and lose trust in Duke. The racing's not that well done and little detail within giving the setting. The performances are mostly overdone, but they're likeable enough. It seems to me that Clark Gable plays the same sort of role in every film... though decent.
