Derby Day is a 1923 short silent comedy film directed by Robert F. McGowan. It was the 19th Our Gang short subject released.
As the gang are selling lemonade across the street from the racetrack, they meet up with Mary, who's rich father owns one of the horses. She gets them into the track, and they're sufficiently impressed to start up their own junior version.
When the television rights for the original silent Pathé Our Gang comedies were sold to National Telepix and other distributors, several episodes were retitled. This film was released into TV syndication as Mischief Makers in 1960 under the title "Little Jockeys". About two-thirds of the original film was included.
