The Paris Six, 1939, gets off to an auspicious start when the riders mistake a murderous gunshot in the stands for the starter's pistol: The Lavender gang had struck wiping out a snitch. Fat Henry, One Eye Joe, Pig Iron Johnny, Louie the Weasel, and the rest of his gang try to bluff the bookie and win big.
