they appear to be doing very well. Billy Ray came back to tie reserve with him in the Championship Stake and his showing indicated that he still deserves to be in the " big-time.”
Several fine two-year-olds were evident at the state show as Preach
Fleming finally made his appearance on SHADOW’ S DELIGHT, a finecolt owned by R. D. Keene, to take the Stallion & Gelding Class. Two-yearold fillies were also well received as John Peels made his way to the limelight on EL DELIGHT’ S STAR. Second was Charles Massey riding
DELIGHT’ S MISSY, a pretty filly with a good record for the year.
We would like to see a show as impressive as this one become a strong Walking Horse event since it is the Tennessee State Show. There
were only seventeen classes for our breed out of one hundred one classes, and Billy Hale, President of the
sponsoring Tennessee Horsemen’ s Association, promised to make an extra effort next year to get more emphasis on Walking Horses. We are proud that one of " our boys” is president of this fine organization
and are pleased with the job they are doing in their several projects.
Congratulations on a fine show! We’ re sorry that all ribbon pictures were not available.
