The story

Dick Scott leads his roaming troupe of trick riders as they prepare to stage their Wild West show in a small town in Alvania, ruled by a ten-year-old Boy King, Michael XI. The young monarch's innocent curiosity is sparked when the show's advance man announces the upcoming rodeo, prompting the King to command the entire troupe to appear before him, eager to meet the legendary Texas cowboys his American governess, Ruth Elliott, has told him about. While visiting the palace, Scott overhears the sinister Prime Minister conspiring with his political cohorts to overthrow the government and seize the throne for himself.
