 Harry S.Webb liked this plot so much that he remade it four more times, including twice in the same year (1940) as "Wild Horse Range" at Monogram with Jack Randall, and as "Wild Horse Valley" with Bob Steele at Webb s own Metropolitan company. The expense-saving use of stock footage featuring "Starlight the Wonder Horse" from the original most likely had more to do with Webb s poverty-stricken remakes than any fondness for the plot;While foreman Dan Denton (Edward Earle) and ranch hands/henchies Jim (Pete Morrison) and Steve (Robert Walker, the original) are rustling the brood mares from rancher Colonel Van Horn (Josef Swickward), they blame the loss on a white phanton stallion (Starlight) roaming the surround hills. The Colonel offer a large "dead-or-alive" reward for the horse. Jack Saunders (Jack Perrin), a newly-hired hand, persuades Van Horn,through Van Horn s daughter Mary (Eva Novak) to reward only the capture of the horse alive.Using Mary s horse as bait, Jack captures the phantom horse, finds evidence that the source of the missing horses is two-legged rusting, finds the stolen herd, and roundups the rustlers. And gives the innocent horse his freedom.
