JACK MONTGOMERY STABLES Jack Montgomery has opened his doors for several out-of-town trainers until after the Celebration. Hoyle Alexander has been working his stock in this stable for quite some time, but for the last few weeks Preach .Fleming and Shorty Thomas, both Florida trainers, have been staying there. So — be sure to visit all of them during the Celebration. Jack feels that he has some great yearlings for the Futurity and for sale this year. He’s very pleased with the breeding season on MIDNIGHT IKE and hopes everyone will come take a look at this fine stud dur­ ing the Celebration. Jack’s still very proud of his three-year-old mare, SHADOW’S DOLLY NELL - I’m sure he’d like for everyone to see her, too. BOB REED STABLES Bob Reid has.really been winning the blue ribbons in top competition at Middle Tennessee shows this summer. Going into the Celebration, however, Bob says, ''Well, we’ll just have to wait and see how we do there.” One of the top blue-ribbon winners this season for the Lewisburg, Tennessee stable is a four- year-old roan mare, DELIGHT’S ANN. Bob and her owners, Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Gracy of Fayetteville, have big expectations for the Celebration. This is by no means the only horse that has been bringing home the ribbons. A few of the others are: DELIGHT’S BLACK LADY, a top two-year-old black filly owned by John Dale Gracy, Fayetteville, has seven blues to her credit this season; EBONY’S HIGH SOCIETY is a three-year-old black mare owned by Diane Martin of Fayetteville; and OVERLORD, a two- year-old sorrel stallion, has won seven blues for Dave Grissam of Athens, Alabama. A black two-year-old, GO BOY’S MAGIC MOMENT, will be shown in the Futurity for Captain E. A. Self of Mobile, Alabama. Some others on the show docket for Bob Reid Stables will be MASTERPIECE MAID, Jim Beasley’s three-year-old black mare; a four-year-old mare, ROCKET’S ROSIE, for Jerry Bradford of Nash­ ville; and Dave Grissam’s three-year-old black stallion, SPIRIT BOY. The Bob Reid Stables issue an open invitation to everyone to come by during the Celebration this year. MACK MOTES STABLES Going into the Celebration this year with his usual good string of show stock, Mack will be showing two for Dr. R. R. Renfrow of Fayetteville, North Carolina. One is the World Champion mare, MISS SUN-DOWN R., and the other is a two-year-old bay stallion, BY GEORGE.
