According to the 10 Sep 1910 Film Index, the title character was "played by Miss Gene Gauntier," who "gives the finest exhibition yet of dare devil horsemanship."
The 24 Sep 1910 Moving Picture World, using the title The Cowpuncher's Sweetheart, ran the following review:" A Western story, the principal feature of which is some daredevil riding performed by real cowboys and real Indians. A girl is stolen and carried away by the Indians, or an Indian, in this picture. Of course, she is rescued and dire punishment is meted out to the Indians, but all the same the disagreeable feature of carrying away a girl is reproduced in this picture. If such a part of the drama could be suggested rather than depicted, it would be much better. The actual occurrence is very disagreeable and much too suggestive to warrant its continuance.

“The cow puncher of the story is a splendid type of the young Western ranchman who has incurred the enmity of a renegade Indian horse thief by running him down and bringing him to justice. The Indian, full of revenge, attempts to strike at the cowboy through his sweetheart, and the girl is captured and taken into the Indian camp. The cow punchers get word of it, however, and there is a horseback chase which will delight all lovers of fine horse flesh. It is useless to say that the cow puncher's sweetheart is saved and that the Indians get their deserved punishment.”—10 Sep 1910 Moving Picture World ...
