to 1969 Three-Year-
Old Championship
SHADOW'S ROYA
FLUSH Was Dealt a Winning Hand
The first time that most of us recall seeing Mack
Motes in the showring was probably at the 1963
Celebration in the Three-Year-Old Stallion Class. Mack
was showing GO BOY’S CRIMSON TIDE and man­
aged to stay with it until the final workout. He kept
getting better and better, and attracted quite a bit of
acclaim, tying sixth in a great class. Mack was work­
ing for the .John Price Stables in Jasper, Tennessee at
the time and, although he was only in his early twen­
ties, he had amassed a lot of experience as a young
horseman.
Since that time Mack Motes has slowly made his
way through the professional ranks to achieve a meas­
ure of success. He, like other trainers, has had his
ups and downs, but he profited by his mistakes. He
now has his own operation in Eagleville, Tennessee
and appears to be well on the way to becoming one of
our more successful trainers.
