  MGM's newest romantic team of James Craig and Frances Gifford head the cast of the glossy "B"-picture She Went to the Races. Gifford plays beautiful professor Ann Wotters, who develops a scientific method of picking winners at the race track. Craig portrays horsetrainer Steve Confield, who thinks that Ann's theories are all wet. Falling in love with Steve, Ann gets mixed up in a romantic triangle, the apex of which is socialite Hilda Spotts (Ava Gardner, who steals the picture). Edmund Gwenn, Sig Ruman and Reginald Owen provide screwball-comedy relief as three pedants who are subsidizing Ann's equestrian research.
