Sometimes you have to risk it all to get even...

Ray Dokes is fresh out of prison. Returning home, he discovers the countryside of his youth transformed. Urban development crawls across the pastoral fields like a rash. Determined to stay out of trouble, Ray heads to the farm of his old friend Pete, a Texan cowboy, whose debts are growing faster than his corn. Bad-boy Sonny Stanton, the heir to a thoroughbred dynasty, is buying the entire concession of farmland to build a golf course.

One of the farms hes after belongs to Etta Parr, Rays old flame. Seems shes the only one brave enough to stand in Sonnys way. Ray hooks up with Chrissie, a kick-ass jockey and tries to steer clear of Sonny. When a million-dollar thoroughbred goes missing from the Stanton Stables, Sonny gets desperate and forces the sale of the towns remaining farms. Ray reacts by pulling together the community and coming up with a scheme to stop Sonny once and for all. One false move will land Ray back in jail.
