Hey Smitty, You promised a article on breeding from Dr. Boshell a while back. I'd really like to see it.

Thanks for reminding me. I haven't even scanned that one yet, so it might be a while.
I'll try to get it on here sometime next month. Dr. Boshell, as you know, was also a expert dog breeder.

Are any of them roan?

I used to know this stuff. I think black X black

unless one of them is a roan neither will produce a roan...... I take it you mean a classic roan.... not a sabino

Correct! Neither will produce a true Roan.

What local company was the first sponsor of the first Challenge Trophy offered in the World Grand Championship stake at the Celebration?

Musgrave Pencil Company

What was Musgrave Pencil Company called before it was Musgrave?

No clue. I'm not as old as you. But I do remember how good those cedar shavings from the
pencil factory smelled in the horse barns and the runways at the sale tents (Haralinsdale, Murry Farm, etc.)

Musgrave Pencil Company is CORRECT!



The Musgrave Challenge Trophy, first won by White Star in 1954

Wasn't it Empire Pencil before it was Musgrave?

What was the first horse to win a Challenge Trophy at the Celebration?

White Star?

No............the Musgrave was not the first Challenge trophy!

Answer: Midnight Merry & Steve Hill won the W.J. Eaton Memorial Challenge Trophy in 1949. This trophy, which is the oldest, was presented to winners of the Junior Championship and is named in honor of Mr. Bill Eaton, who was always interested in the development of younger horses.

What horse & rider did did Go Boy's Shadow & Winston Wiser beat in a two-horse workout in the 1956 WGC?

Mr. Sensation and Steve Hill

That's right!

Mr. Sensation was the Reserve WGC in 1956. He also was Reserve in 1960 and tied 3rd in 1959 in the WGC.

Yeap...that's correct. and He did win over 400 blues during his life time.

What well-known TWH was named after a men's cologne ?

Well, I reckon a hint is in order on this one....
