PROFESSIONALS ON PARADE( Continued from Page 10) and ambition that makes him go as hard as he does. As she puts it,“ he thinks that every horse in the barn has got to be worked every day regardless of how tired or sick he may be.” It is obvious that Bud’ s dedication to his horses has produced results, however. Perhaps the most outstanding trait to describe Bud Dunn is that he is a listener. He listens to people and doesn’ t say much. He listens to the rythum of his horses and this says a lot.
Like most other trainers. Bud doesn’ t like to brag about what he has accomplished, but with a little prying we learned about some of his horses. He is now showing a seal brown three year old stallion named JET ' S COMMAN DER owned by Allen Walker of Manchester, Tennessee. He also has SUNDUST UNTOUCHABLE, owned by Lewis Biggerstaff of Kocomo, Indiana and SUNDUST BLACK MAGIC, owned by Captain A. E. Self of Mobile, Alabama. Bud is particularly proud of GO BOY’ S SUN DUST, owned by Miss Janie Henry and SUN DUST PER FECTION owned by Dr. and Mrs. B. S. Henry of Russelville, Ala. Both of these horses appear to be headed for top honors.
From the sidelines it was apparent that Bud Dunn made a good showing at the Shelbyville P. T. A. show this year. Five of the amateur horses that were shown had, at one time, been trained by him, and three of them placed. Good evidence that this man is easy to follow in the saddle. Another outstanding horse that Bud started is MARK’ S SUN
SUN DUST PERFECTION— Owned by Dr. and Mrs. B. S. Henry of Russelville, Alabama. A top Contender for 1964 Blue Ribbon honors. Bud Dunn up.
THE BUD DUNN STABLES— after many years of effort and hard work Bud Dunn has managed to settle down on his own place. He has recently purchased this stable and farm in Florence, Alabama.
DUST, a five year old stud that Preach Fleming has been showing successfully this year. And there are many, many more good horses going that are a tribute to the training ability of Bud Dunn.
A dream of a boy that says“ he rode chairs in the living room when he couldn’ t find a horse,” seems to have materialized for this man. We wish him and his wife Charlotte every success with their newly acquired Stable and home in Florence, Alabama.
