uphill battle ahead, to be able to regain the use of his legs. He will be sent to Lincoln, Nebraska for a long time, and will
have months of rehab. There has been a donation set up for Cody Tracy at Rose Hill State Bank, Rose Hill, KS 67133 Please

Patricia King of Manhattan, Kansas has this news:
I wanted to tell about the recent success of my mare, Tasy,
who
placed third in the jumping division and first in Military Horsemanship (dressage) at the National Calvary Competition.
About Tasy: Her registered
name is Strawman's Fantasy. She is a 1999 mare out of ZZ's Dazzlin Jewel by Strawman's Image. Her Dam is by Goers Zanzabar
- a Registered Appaloosa out of Macho's Darlin by Macho Son who is a son of Abdull's Pok-A-Son. Her Sire is by Roman's Straw
Man. We showed Strawman's Fantasy at KS State Fair in yearling lounge line and also the following year in 2 year old Western
Pleasure. She has a LOT of Appaloosaness. She not only has the bloodlines, she has the all-around Appaloosa talent and disposition!
