Riding For Pleasure Since 1945 Another Tennessee Walking Horse lover is Marjorie H. Young, Asalee Farm, Rt. 2, Cambridge, New York. She says that unfortunately, up in the North Country where she lives there are many owners who do not under stand the Walkers gaits, nor do they know how much to expect from a pleasure animal. She writes, "Many potentially fine animals are spoiled by incorrect riding and being pushed into pacing and racking; the riders not knowing the difference. “Another unfortunate thing is the fact that many folks see some high class show horses at places like Great Barrington and Troy, and then go home and attempt to identify their own pleasure Walkers with the ones observed in the show ring. Conse quently, numerous real nice saddle horses are unjustly maligned. The Voice is such an excellent vehicle for putting things across, that 1 hope it will help give further education about pleasure Walkers. "I found that run-walking a pleasure horse over ploughed fields is one of the best means of correcting faults in his walking gait. It also helped in one case when I used little tinkle-bells on the small chains dangling from bit. Wonder what a Yo-Yo would do?!!” (Page Virginia Lamb—Voice Cor respondent!) Suggests Mr. Sensation Tribute Thomas J. Ellis, P. O. Box 921, Mobile, Ala., suggests some type of fitting tribute to Mr. Sensation, the great gelding who won the gelding world’s title six limes, twice placed as reserve in the Celebration’s World Championship Stake, and showed be fore large crowds throughout the na tion. Friend Ellis says he twice heard Mr. Sensation was for sale and "had the ball bounced a bit differently I might have had him.” The horse died last fall at the Don Decker Farm near Omaha, Neb. (We understand the horse was buried on the farm and doubtless his grave will be appropri ately marked). FORMULA FOR BABY COLTS An interesting letter comes from our good friend Joyce Yarian, 865 Oak Ave. Lake Elmo, Minn. She tells how they are raising a baby colt, without a mare, in their basement. They bought this foal when it was four days old. It was a mare’s second foal.
