roving reporter
About once a year we like to interview various people and discuss the Walking Horse business with them. It is interesting to note their activity and their responses to questions regarding the Walking Horse breed in different parts of the country. This year we once again put our " Roving Reporter” to work at the Mid-West Walking Horse Sale in Kansas City during the week of the American Royal Horse Show. The following should be interesting.
FLOYD POSENKE Springfield, Missouri
" I am a professional trainer. Came to Kansas City for the sale and the show. We are looking for some good young stock. Have seventeen horses in training at the present and had a pretty good year showing. What a- bout prices? I think they are a little big higher here than most people expected. Red Bridge has helped the business in Mid-West. We need more top stock in this part of the country.”
