Doc Overholt — Feudin', Fussin' and A-Fightin' (1948)

The plot summary describes a town veterinarian who is secretly working with the rival side. He says the horse that drank the drug intended for Wilbur must stay active all night or it will die, keeping Wilbur awake and exhausted before race day.
