September, 1963 JAN WRIGHT ON DARK SHADOW Climaxing another year of outstanding triumphs, eleven- year-old Jan Wright, of Nacogdoches, Texas, won the Champion­ ship in Walking Seat Equitation at the 1963 National Celebration. Her victory in a large class of thirty-five talented entries, con­ firmed what many observers have been saying: “Jan Wright is the greatest young rider in the country.” With her favorite mount, DARK SHADOW, Jan has won the hearts of thousands at major shows throughout the South and the Southwest. Her happy parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Wright, are especially proud of this championship, earned under precise rules of perform­ ance by the rider, not the horse. Popular at home, as well as in the show ring, Jan has been selected a cheerleader for her school. LONE STAR STABLES • Nacogdoches, Texas trained by BILL MOORE TE A
