RICHARD PATE STABLES
STALLION
Richard Pate recently moved into a brand-new stable in Collierville, Tennessee. It is not completely finished, but everything is in good enough shape for him to have all his stock there.
Dickie has made several moves in the last few years, but he built this stable to his own specifications and says with pride that his roots are now deep in the soil in West Tennessee. The stable is a fine one indeed, with thirty-one stalls and all the up-to-date conveniences that a training barn requires, including enough property to make a well-rounded training facility.
During the last few months, right in the middle of show season, Dickie has been hard at work on the barn, training, moving, showing, et cetera. However,
the sale of horses has been better in the past few months than ever before. EBONY’ S OLD CHARTER and HAWK’ S MEMORY are just two of the good sales he’ s made.
Dickie wants everybody to come by and see his new stable. Until he gets his signs up, the easiest way to get there is to get off the Memphis Interstate at the Arlington exit and go south to Eads, Tennessee, then ask for directions. Congratulations, Dickie!
Terry, Columbus, Georgia, the owner. Both of these fine horses are ready to do the big job for Elntore and their proud owners. Frank Metcalf of Sparta is the owner of Elmote’ s stake horse. MR. GLO, the Reserve World Grand Champion in 1967, will be trying for the World Grand Champion roses this year. With more growth and more experience, he will certainly give the other contenders a run for their money. " Possum” would appreciate your support at the Celebration— you’ ll find him on " that GOOD horse” in his classes.
WALLACE BRANDON STABLES
Wallace and Laura Brandon have the best group of show stock that they have ever had, as show spectators all over the country know. They have been bringing home the ribbons, including countless blues. At the head of the list of horses is " the horse with the million-dollar lick,” SENSATIONAL SHADOW, owned by the Davis brothers of Calhoun and Rome, Georgia. Need we say more?... Also for the Davises Wallace is working ACE’ S GRAND SLAM, a four-yearold gelding that won the Lafayette, Tennessee 15.2 & Under class and will be shown in that division at the Celebration; and BLACK TROUBLE, a three-year-old that won the Lafayette and Woodbury shows and will be shown in the three-year-old stallion class.
