Plot

When Fred Chaney, a man of simple yet charming disposition, inherits half of a lucrative brokerage firm following his mother's demise, his world is turned upside down. His mother's second husband, the conniving Walter, eager to seize control of the entire company, expels Fred from his childhood home and attempts to swindle him out of his rightful inheritance. In the wake of this turmoil, Fred discovers an unexpected legacy in the form of Don - a horse with a peculiar and astonishing talent. Don possesses not only the gift of speech, but also an uncanny knack for understanding the high-stakes world of the stock market. Initially overwhelmed, Fred sends Don back to his rural roots, only to realize the potential of his equine companion. As Fred begins to navigate the cutthroat world of finance, Don re-enters his life with timely insights about lucrative deals. Together, they ascend the financial ladder, with Fred's newfound wealth baffling his competitors, including the increasingly desperate Walter. As Walter sends his unsuspecting secretary to unravel Fred's secret, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to Fred's innocent charm. Hot to Trot is a delightful romp through the high-powered world of stock trading with an unusual twist. This comedy chronicles Fred's transformation from an unsuspecting heir to a financial mogul, guided by the wisdom of his talking horse, Don. Amidst the laughter and unexpected alliances, it poses the question - can an ordinary man and a talking horse outsmart the corporate sharks in the race to fortune?
