. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. CAVALRYMEN DOING A STUNT IX THE MONKEY DRILL Woodland Hackney Stud turned out candidates for the blue in a team composed of Lady Ives and Gwen- dolyn, while their Julep and Delight were first and second, respectively, among the high steppers. Sporting tandems and combination horses provided much entertainment, the entrants in the latter num- bers being shown to harness, taken out in the ring and ridden by the same person. Revel Lindsay Eng- lish's pair. Daisy E. and Altadena, and the two from the San Francisco Riding School, Kildare and Kil- larney, outranked the other tandems, and in the combination class for three gaited horses first and second went to Sly Idol and Greyhurst, both from the stable of E. D. Moore of Columbia, Missouri. Mrs. H. B. Thornberry of Los Angeles had the best five gaited combination horse, the famous gray geld- ing Jack Barryraore, with Mr. Moore's Johnnie Jones second. While all classes of horses were given a warm reception by the spectators, the ones that created the greatest interest, the keenest competition and the readiest applause were the gaited saddle horses. The pick of Missouri farms were in evidence, and California herself is not backward in the production of gaited saddlers, and the fields in many instances were large. Riders such as Judge Bridgford, the "father of the saddler in California," John Hook of Missouri, Billy Shropshire of south of the Mason and Dixon line, E. D. Moore, and others of fame from former shows gave added distinction to these events and every entry was shown for "all it was ; Longriew Farm, whose horses are famous throughout the land, had an excellent stable present, headed by the stallion My Major Dare and the equally famous representative of the op- posite sex, Maurine Fisher. La France among any age mares, My Major Dare among any age stallions and La France among junior mares were all winners Ml A ^- » of the blue in the performance ^HlMQSIHK
