Best Chance, has been taking it easy this winter, but he is really working. George will also be showing that great chestnut stallion, Invas­ ion’s Shadow, in the Junior classes this season. In addition to Dusty and Invasion’s Shadow, Dr. and Mrs. MARSHALL CARRIER of Decatur own another Junior horse — apretty Midnight Ike filly. BILL McLAUREN of North Caro­ lina has a real nice bay filly coming three. George also said that Go Boy’s Supreme, owned by HENRY MUR­ RAY, Wake Village, Texas, is "hot as a firecracker.” There are two real walking stud colts that are exceptional: one is a Midnight Ike colt owned by GEORGE SCOTT of Athens and the other is a black Invasion colt owned by George Miss JUDY TILLET, whose great mare The Untouchable won 90% of all her classes, will be a top contend­ er in the Juvenile classes next show season. Confederate Raider (affectionately known as Tufiy), three times winner of Ladies Amateur at the Celebra­ tion, is another prime example. This great horse is owned and shown by SHIRLEY (Mrs. Robert) SCHLEI­ CHER of Gary, Indiana. And then tfiere is the three-year- old Red Sun Dust and the great mare Pretty Woman. They are also working a two-year-old mare by Mid­ night Sun out of a Shadow mare. Vic Thompson and JOE TILLET sold two mares to BETTY CHAP­ MAN of Williamson, South Carolina, recently. VIC THOMPSON STABLES We stopped for a while to say Hi! to the THOMPSONS of Shelbyville. MACK MOTES, the man who made Crimson Tide, is now riding for the Vic Thompson Stables. They are working several good colts and am­ ateur mounts. DOUGLAS WOLAVER STABLES The opening of the new DOUG WOLAVER Stables on the Lewis- burg Highway in Comersville, about 15 miles out of Pulaski, Tennessee, is welcome news to many area Walk­ ing Horse followers. This young man, who has already ridden two World’s Grand Champions, has an excellent reputation with both young and age horses and is currently working 15 horses in the new bam. Doug has 24 stalls in the new stable, plus all the necessary facili­ ties for working show horses. The bam is 204 feet long and had a 40 foot wide riding hall. With over one hundred acres of beautiful Mid­ dle Tennessee land, Doug should have plenty of room for a full-scale breeding operation, which he plans to have completed by Spring, using Mack K’s Handshaker and the prin­ cipal stud. This 1961 World’s Grand Champion will remain at the old homeplace until a new stud barn is completed across the road from the training stable. If you plan a trip to Middle Ten­ nessee be sure to stop by and see the new Doug Wolaver Stable. It is a real showplace!
