Dark Horse is the fifteenth episode in the second season of the CBC drama Heartland. It originally aired March 1, 2009.
Synopsis[]
Lou resurrects the Hudson Derby, stirring up an age-old grudge match between Jack and Tim.
Plot[]
Lou revives the Hudson Charity Derby, which had ended years earlier due to a dispute between Tim and Jack over who had won. To settle the score, they both sign up for the race. Amy helps get Tim's horse in shape. Jack's horse Paint is too old to race, so Kit brings him a former racehorse called Money which Ty helps them train. Ty and Amy can't help becoming competitive. Tim and Jack do well in the race until Tim (who is troubled by his old injury) falls off his horse and Jack stops to help him. Scott wins the race and Tim and Jack tie for second. Amy and Ty are made spotters at the halfway point but are unable to communicate with Lou and end up play fighting and almost kiss. Amy had agreed to do a team roping competition with Caleb, causing him to think that they're getting back together, but she later backs out for being too busy. Ashley tells Caleb that something is going on between Amy and Ty, and Val offers to sponsor Caleb on the professional rodeo circuit so that he can leave Hudson.
