Gore Center pictures were from Margaret Lindsey Wardens collection & are housed at MTSU in Murfreesboro & were directed there by Mrs Mary Ella (Ernest) Burke.

Does anyone on this list recall a horse named Rhythm Master that was showing back in the 80s and I think was owned by Dr. James Johnson at one point and I think was raised by Mack and Jane Hollis?

I will relay what I read in an old article. This was a replacement house for the first. Mr Haynes was having his house painted. He instructed the painter to take a blow torch & burn the old paint off the gutters. Now you know why this was a second house.

OOPS! Now that would be hard to live down. Proving yet again that hindsight is 20/20, right?
A beautiful place. I had a horse (by Ebony's Professor) there with David Landrum/Ernest Upton for a short time, (culled out). David moved to Ravenwood shortly thereafter.

Go Boy's Shadow was the last one to win bare legged, not sure about keg shod.

I was thinking it was White Star, but I could be wrong.
