There isn't anything that could be described as a cavalcade in this oater. Hoot Gibson is the first rider signed up for the Pony Express. Rex Lease is the man Hoot aces out for the job, so he takes up robbing Hoot and a stagecoach with the other principal cast on it. There's a bit of a backstory that makes it apparent how it's going to turn out, but there's nothing like a procession, formal or otherwise in the film.
Hoot doesn't get to do much in the way of his sly humor, and it's Rex who gets much of the interesting characterization. Marion Shilling is present for the two leads to compete for, and there's a nice role for Nina Guilbert as Hoot's mother, but except for people who are anxious to see anything Hoot was in -- or Rex -- it's an undistinguished B western.
