A Day at the Races
Three Great Laff Stars ! . . . more gags and gals . . . more songs and dances !
A lighthearted, high-energy comedy romp built on absurdist humor, musical numbers, and the antics of three comedians working together to save a sanitarium through a horse race.
Doctor Hugo Hackenbush, Tony, and Stuffy try and save Judy's sanitarium by winning a big race with a finicky horse owned by Judy's boyfriend Gil. There are a few problems. Hackenbush, who was recently put in charge of the sanitarium, isn't really a doctor, he's a veterinarian.
