Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaConsidered by Bud Abbott and Lou Costello fans to be their "lost" film, it was never actually lost but was unavailable for viewing for many years due to legal issues with the Damon Runyon estate. The film was televised decades ago (presumably before the legal issues arose) but was never released on video, and was not included in MCA/Universal's original DVD sets of Abbott and Costello films that came out in 2004. In 2008 the rights issues were cleared and it was included in the DVD release "Abbott and Costello: The Complete Universal Pictures Collection."
- GoofsWhen Grover places his $100 bet, he places it on Tea Biscuit's entered number. However, the horse with that number didn't win, so the ticket is worthless. Never mind that Tea Biscuit won the race; bets at the track are on numbers, not on names.
- Quotes
Grover Mockridge: Go answer the door. It might be Warner.
Wilbur Hoolihan: It won't do no good. We're all signed up with Universal.

Featured review
It Ain't Hay review
Abbott & Costello take on Damon Runyan although, apart from three dodgy racetrack bettors, there's little of the writer's trademark quirky characters to hand. There are no stand-out routines to speak of, but a couple of decent gags, and Eugene Pallette is always good for a laugh.
