About the title
At last: the talking horse Julius has fallen in love! And this time it's serious — he's asking Sultan Rashid for the hand, or rather the hoof, of the royal mare named Star of the East. But only someone of royal blood can ask for the hand of a mare with royal blood. Julius turns to the Prince of Kiev for help, but is refused. Yet our suitor has no intention of giving up on love. He kidnaps the prince and forcibly takes him to the sultan for the matchmaking. Meanwhile, the bogatyrs also have business in the East. Everyone will come together at the great race, where the winner takes all.
