== Summary ==
Bez comes back from Baghdad to the Caves of Doom to give Prince Turhan an announcement. Bakaar is throwing a fair to celebrate his reign and a bag of gold will be given to all the contest winners, promoting the Knights to enter the contest themselves to win the gold and return it to the people it was stolen from, and to make Bakaar’s nose whiter like a dry old date. But Bakaar challenges anything or anyone to beat his mechanical horse. Zazuum is willing to take that challenge and with Princess Nida expertise in disguise's she dressed Turhan like a beggar, Fariik a clown, Raseem a fat man, Bez a stilt walker and herself and Zazuum into an Arabian zebra and an old man rider while some laugh at their aliases.
At Baghdad the fair commences fabulously as Vangore called his master generous for providing such an entertainment he then saw Zazuum and Nida and asked what type of animal is he to which she replies as an Arabian zebra as the contest began. The first contest is a feat of strength for who ever reduces a boulder to rubble in the shortest amount of time is the winner and gain a bag of gold a shirtless guard named Rogar went first and smashed it with a hammer twice, the second is Raseem though Vangore noticing how he looks merely called him a “fat clown” but the strongman made him eat his words when he smashed it with his fist. The second contest a dual with Vangore for three minutes the prize another bag of gold so Turhan took part and bested him easily giving the captain great shame to the black sultan. 
The last contest is the horse race with the reward being the biggest bag of gold to whoever crosses his obstacle course first and beat his greatest treasure his mechanical horse astonishing the civilians Nida and Zazuum accepted but Bakaar had doubts they could win but it only made them a bit perturb and said he was afraid and with that the race began with Vangore as the horseman, knowing he will stop at nothing to win the prince alerted the Knights to stay alert and Bakaar told Vangore that if he doesn’t win he will be a laughingstock to all the kingdom, Vangore activated the mechanism and was in the lead Nida and Zazuum were catching up and made it past his ridiculously stupid machine but Vangore decided to make the race unfair pressed a button to make his horse a Pegasus and fly above them over a hill when the stripped beast went down on the hill he painfully slide down the magician noticing this said a magic word “Rosan Kobar” and granted them a wagon and gave them the lead again so Vangore pressed another button and the pile of junk’s legs elongated Nida made him eat dust by pressing a button on the mechanism’s stomach and turned it’s legs stubby when they almost went past him the big cheat pressed another button and blocked their way the prince managed to look out for them and threw his retractable scimitar at the pole Nida and her little beast were almost at the finish line but Vangore wouldn’t allow that so he tried to get it to stop by stupidly pulling his tail only to have his stallion destroyed. 
After the race was won Vangore came back to tell Bakaar his miserable failure on trying to stop his competition but when he said “Arabian donkey” he realized that the Arabian Knights are here but he decided that he shall have the last laugh and when they came for payday Vangore took off their disguises starting with the princess so he had his soldiers sentence them to the dungeons but the beast said the transformation phrase “Size of a Bull” and morphed into one to trample them then de-transformed back into human form while Raseem bashed their heads in, Turhan then had his first sword fight with Bakaar while he told the rest of the Knights to make their escape but not before Fariik said another magic word “Rosan Floatar” and created a coin shower with the winnings while it pelted on Vangore and Bakaar and caused them to flee Fariik then said again another magic word “Rosan Floatar” and granted them a carpet for them to head back to the Caves.
