1966-Voice Of The Tennessee Walking Horse 1966 October Voice RS | Page 37

PIDDLEY’S GRATIS was picked by
lot from a select list of colts offered to
the VOICE by over two dozen top
breeding stables. The name of Oak-
wood was drawn as the stable from
which the VOICE would purchase
a colt for this program. Working with
Dr. William Jones, Bob Hamilton,
Buck Hollis and Adrian Light, owners
of PIDDLEY, INCORPORATED, we
were able to locate and purchase one
of the truly outstanding yearlings of
1966 to be given away at the Celebra­
tion. In keeping with our established
policy, we endeavor to obtain nothing
but the best for this program and we
feel that the colt for this year was the
best yet.
PIDDLEY, now standing in Fayette­
ville, Tennessee, at OAKWOOD
ACRES, has been a successful producer
of fine Tennessee Walking Horses for
the past several years while standing
along with GO BOY’S SHADOW at
Bailey-Montgomery Stables in Shelby-
ville. He was purchased by the group
representing Oakwood Acres and was
moved to new quarters to stand the
1967 season from Fayetteville. Oak-
wood Acres features the old Rambo
Farms facilities and has over one hun­
dred and fifty acres of prime pasture
for brood mares and colts. The stud
fee on this stallion will remain at
$150.00 for the coming season. Any­
one wishing information about PID­
DLEY should contact Mr. Adrian
Light, Phone [phone], Fayetteville,
Tennessee.
