I was terribly disappointed with the ending of this film, which diminished its entire purpose. You would think the writers would help Mickey Rooney live down the reputation of his father, a crooked jockey, with some redeeming act. Some may think his actions did that, but I certainly did not. I did enjoy the performance of Rooney, who I always felt was an underrated actor. Willie Best, who consistently made me laugh throughout the film despite being his stereotyped 1930's character, is also a big plus for the film.
