(Continued from Page 4)
A check of the 1964 record indi­
cates that horses by SHADOW are
achieving a notable reputation as
outstanding individuals. They are
consistant winners in the show
ring. They bring top money in any
age class at the best auctions and
SHADOW-bred mares are in
greater demand than ever before.
PIDDLEY, also a superior horse
by modern standards, is best de­
scribed as a very alert, extremely
fine specimen, that is fast making
a reputation for himself as an out­
standing breeding stallion.
Also by MERRY GO BOY, the
fabulous PIDDLEY offers a con­
trast in ALLEN blood that has
proved to be valuable. His dam,
ANN’S DIXIE MAID was by SO­
CIETY MAN who was by WIL­
SON’S ALLEN. This combination
blends with almost any blood line
and should nick well to produce
outstanding colts from most mares.
Called “the find of the century,”
PIDDLEY, as is well known, sus­
tained a severe leg injury at the
peak of his pre-season training as
a two year old. He never entered
the show ring, but the natural abi­
lity and outstanding conformation
that attracted the attention of the
Walking Horse World when he was
in training, still persists. PIDD­
LEY, now eleven years old, was
almost forgotten after his accident
and it was not until several years
ago that he attracted the attention
of Mr. Jack Montgomery as a pro­
spective breeding horse. This
proved to be a wise move on the
part of Mr. Montgomery, for re­
cent years have proved his belief.
PIDDLEY colts are now making
their way into the show ring and
1965 will see more and more win­
ners bearing the PIDDLEY name.
The Bailey-Montgomery Stables,
located on the Lewisburg Highway
a short way out of Shelbyville,
is considered one of the best breed­
ing establishments anywhere. They
have excellent facilities for caring
for brood mares and colts and along
with their breeding operation at
the main stable are actively work­
ing some top SHADOW and PID­
DLEY colts for the show ring.
