Humbert is a loveable old Shire horse who works hard for his master in the dark back streets of London, taking beer from the brewery to the pubs. One day the Lord Mayor of London decides to have a huge show and life for Humbert changes dramatically.

Review:
Humbert the horse loves working with Mr. Firkin, the scrap-iron dealer, but he envies the grand life of the brewery horses who pull the Lord Mayor's golden coach. As the day of the Lord Master's Show begins, Humbert watches from the sidelines, feeling small and shabby--until a disaster suddenly places him center stage. "A noble and hilarious moral tale."
