SYNOPSIS 
  
Martin becomes the blood brother of a racehorse after a 
mosquito mistakenly bites him and then bites the race 
horse. Now everything the racehorse feels, Martin feels. 
 
Sweet Sister is a three year old owned by horse-lover 
Kerry Green, a beautiful young woman. For Kerry and her 
grandfather, Sweet Sister is their last chance for a comeback 
and she looks like a sure thing to win the Big Dream hundred 
thousand dollar Handicap running this afternoon. But when 
Martin and Tim locate Sweet Sister and Martin throws a contour 
force field about the animal, the horse goes numb from head to 
hoof. Martin promises to make an antidote to cure his own 
malady. But a gambler sees him do so and thinks that Martin is 
pepping up the horse to win. The race is already fixed so Hard 
Hearted Hanna will win. The gambler feeds a doped apple to 
Sweet Sister to slow her down.  
 
It is post time by the time Martin gets to the track to help Sweet 
Sister and it's too late to do anything. The horses are off and 
running while Sweet Sister dozes at the starting gate. But if Martin 
can contact the molecules of himself that exist in Sweet Sister he 
might be able to energize Sweet Sister. It works. Sweet Sister runs 
like never before to catch up with the field but that's where Martin's 
wishfulness begins to lose power. But Kelly, her granddad and 
Tim join hands with Martin to re-energize him, and Sweet Sister 
leaps ahead to win by a lip.
