After a bad day at the races he has no money. He goes to live in the Domain but is helped by a trainer and an actor friend to get back on his feet. He discovers the trainer is in cahoots with bookmakers. ReceptionThe novel appears to have been well received. "He shows to advantage as a writer of humor", said one critic.[6] Another stated that, "Not many Australians, perhaps, are writing "literature", but quite a fair number are turning out readable and respectable yarns, and Arthur Wright is one of the number."[7] ProductionThe film was made with Wright's close involvement.[8] Hayford Hobbs was an English actor touring Australia when the film was made.[9][10] ReceptionThe movie was distributed by Barrett himself, due in part to his difficulties with the Australasian Films monopoly, and was not widely seen.[11] Arthur Wright later said the film was: Produced and photographed excellently by Franklyn Barrett, but bringing little grist to the mill of movie ' picture production. It was a flop financially, as were practically all the latter day local silents, which were never given the chance they deserved. Fate and oversea interests were against the Industry, which went into a decline.[12] Barrett's company soon wound up and he left filmmaking to go into cinema management.[13] CriticalThe Advertiser called the movie "a delightful comedy-drama" in which Arthur Albert "is excellently cast".[14] The Register called it "a stirring racing film" which "cannot fail to please the most exacting. In addition the comedy in the picture is exceedingly clever, and productive of many hearty laughs."[15] The Launceston Daily Telegraph said that "from the very first moment that the screen reflected the delightful panorama of our bush land I knew that here at last I had found a picture which, would prove worth while the time it had taken to produce."[16] See also
