the Juvenile Class on GO BOY’ S BLACK BARON. Jan has shown all over the country but still seems to get a thrill with each new blue ribbon. A terrific competitor in every class, Jan is certainly one of the best young riders ever to show Walking Horses. The reserve tie went to Cathy Ellis riding JET’ S REBEL ROUSER. Cathy never let up in her effort for the blue ribbon and made a good ride by any standard.( Editor’ s note: Cathy is a contributing editor for the VOICE from Mississippi.) The third place tie went to SUN STREAK’ S TAR BABY with Ann Robertson up. The Junior Championship was won by the great mare, GO BOY’ S BRENDA LEE. with Neil Robinson in the saddle. This horse was just recently purchased by Mr. and Mrs. Barry Saunders of Germantown, Tennessee at the Sale of Champions during the Celebration. BRENDA LEE also won the Junior Mare Class earlier in the week as a qualifying event. Reserve champion was STATELY’ S PRESTIGE with Joe Martin doing the riding. This horse tied sixth in the junior division at the Celebration this year and has proven that he can go with the best. The third aw ' ard went to EBONY’ S BOOSTER, Buddy Black up.
The Tw ' o-Year-Old Stake saw Mack Motes and his highly regarded SHADOW’ S ROYAL FLUSH repeat their victory '’ in the stallion preliminary class with an even better performance. Mack’ s horse injured his rear leg entering the ring for the stallion preliminary and it was doubtful if he would show back. He did, and he won.
Richard Pate had his horse in the thick of the battle all the way before tying reserve on EBONY’ S OLD CHARTER. OLD CHARTER is one of the best twovear-olds in the country and will win many more blues before his show days are over The third place winner” T ISSA’ S DAYBREAK and Wink Groover. Wink’ s colt won the Two-Year-Old Filly Class at this show but could not upset the favorites in the championship.
Other blue ribbon winners at the Mississippi Championship Show were GO BOY’ S DIXIE FLYER in the Yearline Class; Barbie Suggs won the honors in the Equitation Class; GO BOY’ S LITTLE SHOT in the Weanling Class; and SOCK IT TO ME GO BOY and Woody Marks in the Juvenile Under 13 Class.
Doug Wolaver won the Aged Mare Class with GO BOY’ S LADY ANN and the Aged Gelding Class with GO BOY’ S BLACK BARON. Doug also won the Three- Year-Old Mare Class on HANDSHAKER’ S LADY KIM.
Beth Gaillard of Meridian won the Amateur Owned and Ridden Mare Class aboard MOON MIST, a fine horse with plenty of motion and ability.
The retirement of SHADOW’ S REPLICA by Sharon Terry was a feature of the show. It was a fitting cerecv.- liorco whn has carried Sharnn tn
honors over the years. The Mississippi State Championship Show enjoyed one of its finest shows ever and it is a tribute to the hard-working and gracious show committee who always seem to go that extra mile.
