SUN CREST STABLES
Clarksville, Tennessee can boast of several fine
Walking Horse operations and one of the most active
is Sun Crest Stables. Owned and operated by Bob An­
derson and Charles Massey, Sun Crest is a relatively
new stable with facilities for thirty head of horses. At
present Charles, who is the trainer, has every stall
full. They sure particularly pleased with several of
their horses.
DELIGHT’S MISSY is a fine two-year-old filly owned
by John Lindhal of Ashland, Ky. She has won several
blues this year and keeps getting better. C. C. Free­
man of Cadiz, Ky. owns a black SPIRIT two-year-old
colt that is doing w-ell and R. E. Toms of Hopkinsville
owns DELIGHT’S DUPLICATOR, a fine three-year-
old chestnut stallion that is rated tops.
SHADOW’S MAJOR MAN is a good sorrel stallion
with a flax mane and tail that has won his share this
year as a three-year-old. He belongs to Dr. Morgan of
Henderson, Ky. Another three-year-old that is attract
ing a lot of attention is SUN’S DEBONAIR, a black
stallion owned by Mr. Whittaker.
In aged classes, Charles Massey has several good
mares and stallions to choose from. He is especially
pleased with COTTON QUEEN’S MAY 4TH, a fine
black mare owned by Dr. Bryan T. Iglehart of Clarks­
ville, and John Lindhal’s black stallion, JULIAN’S GO
BOY. They have shown him sparingly this year as he
has been bred quite a bit, but Charles is beginning to
train hard for the remainder of the year.
Also . . . SUN’S BLACK JET, a stallion owned by
Sun Crest Stables, is available for action in open
classes. MOON RAKER is a sorrel stallion owned by
C. W. Whittaker of Owensboro, Ky. that also sees
some action in open competition.
They have several other good horses that are "com­
ing on” as two- and three-year-olds and should be
ready for competition next year.
McLAURIN STABLES
Billy McLaurin, trainer at this Raleigh, North Caro­
lina stable, has both young stock and aged horses in
fine form. Dr. W. J. Senter of Raleigh owns a good
SUN’S DELIGHT two-year-old, DELIGHT’S LOBLOL­
LY, with lots of headshake and plenty of promise.
Billy is working another two-year-old for Mrs. Suzanne
Clement of Wake Forte that will soon make his ring
debut.
MAGIC ALLEN, a three-year-old stud owned by Mr.
and Mrs. John Singleton of Cary, started his season
off right by winning his division at the Raeford, NC
show. He has improved since then, and Billy is rightly
proud of him. The McLaurins own two three-year-old
stallions that improve daily. EBONY SHADOW by
EBONY MASTERPIECE and DELIGHT’S BLACK
IMAGE by SUN’S DELIGHT not only have the blood­
lines, but also the action and drive it takes to get
into the winner’s circle.
The excellent pony, DAWN’S DELIGHT, is back
this year with another competent rider, Steve Mc-
Laurim The additional year has settled this four-year-
old considerably, and he will be tough to beat any­
where. Steve McLaurin has also teamed GO BOY’S
MYSTERY to a lot of wins in juvenile and amateur
classes this year. MYSTERY is owned by Ed Cope­
land of Wash
