Summary Based on advice from supposed expert Jack, Nick, John, Jesse and Jack are thinking about investing in a race horse named Eleanor, who they will give the racing name Little Nell. Although the financial payout on their initial $1,000 investment apiece is important, it is the dream of participating in the sport of kings that is the more exciting adventure. With Jack handling all the logistics, the plan would be to enter Little Nell in small races in the Okanagan over the summer, and if she does well, to enter her in a claiming race in Vancouver at the end of the season, her result there which would dictate how much money they would sell her for. Their plan hits a snag when Laurel and Jesse fight over the investment, Jesse ultimately giving in to Laurel's wishes. As such, the other three have to find another investor or the deal falls through. They reluctantly find a fourth partner in Relic, who solely sees this as a business venture. Regardless of how Little Nell does, Jesse now feels like he isn't living the dream, and Relic may ruin the experience for Nick, John and Jack.
