CHARLES BOBO & SON STABLES
In the December issue of the VOICE on page 43 there is an article on the Washington International Horse Show with a note about Charlie Bobo that I believe is worth repeating here . Mr . Brooks-Ward and Mr . Douglas Bunn , a jumper judge from England , became very interested in Walking Horses . They had several conversations with Mr . Charlie Bobo , who judged the Walking Horse classes , and Charlie has been talking with the Tennessee Walking Horse Breeders ’ Association in regard to doing something about getting some Walking Horses in England . If anything develops from Bobo ’ s efforts , this will be big news to report at a later date .
The new Charles Bobo & Son Stable is located on the Unionville Highway just out of Shelbyville , Tennessee . As of this month , Bobo has about 45 horses in training and is doing extensive work to make this a show farm . He recently purchased Mr . Clarence Clement ’ s show stock , including ALVIN and HAP ’ S SEN SATION , so that , even with a new stable , he has plenty of stock for sale at this time .
As per usual Charlie is working some top stock : TUFF STUFF for G . L . L .; PRETTY WOMAN for Dr . Renfroe ; a coming two-year-old CARBON COPY colt for Mr . Buster Brown of Liberty , Ky . and Mr . George Pittman of Memphis ; HILL ’ S PERFECTION that Kim Lovette has shown so successfully for the past two years ; and MIKE ’ S MIGHTY MAN , the World ’ s Champion Pony for Reed & Gallagher that Bobo plans to show in stake classes this year . This is just a sample of the many horses that you can see being worked at this stable if you stop by . They have two walkers , because , as Bobo says , " as many horses as I work a day , I need both walkers going nearly all the time to keep things moving .” Best of luck to Charles Bobo and his son on their new operation .
BUDDY HUGH STABLES
Buddy Hugh is busy as always this winter , breaking two-year-olds for the show ring this spring .

MARTIN STABLES
Top news at the stables of Judy and Joe Martin are the horses by SHADOW ’ S REFLECTION . REFLEC TION ’ S SHADOW , owned by Payne , Martin & Wiser , was the two-year-old that won the Baton Rouge Stake last fall . He will be showing in three-year-old classes this season . In the Junior classes will be REFLEC TION ’ S UNFORGETTABLE for Bleckler , Wiser & Wiser . As was proven in the shows last year , these are both top horses . There are not too many of these REFLECTION horses around , because he did not stand for public service until Judy and Joe bought him , but if you are interested in finding one , they know where there are several tremendous prospects .
They have a barn full of top competitors for the coming season . Just to mention a few : a great fouryear-old mare by SUN ’ S BIG SHOT for John Mayher of Columbus , Georgia ; for Dr . Harold Mclver of Jackson , Tennessee , a four-year-old black roan by STATE LY GO BOY ; two horses for Mr . Neil Kavanaugh , one being a four-year-old by SHADOW ’ S REFLECTION ; and an aged stallion that tied second in Baton Rouge , SETTING SUN ’ S DELIGHT for Mr . and Mrs . Clark Raines , Tullahoma , Tennessee . This is the SETTING SUN horse that Sam Paschal showed successfully for the past several years , and he ’ s one of their top contenders .
