was no doubt a remarkable horse, but I don’t believe he had anything

Castor, two Arabians, and one thoroughbred are the only horses 
that have completed three of these rides. Castor is a full brother to 
Eudora 0672, placed by a visiting committee of the Morgan Horse 
Club in 1920 as the second best brood mare on the farm, giving 
precedence only to her dam, Babe. 
Dolly 02949, a registered Morgan mare that finished sixth in the 
1920 endurance ride, was bred by the U. S. Morgan Horse Farm on

blue ribbon under saddle at the West Point, N. Y., Horse Show. 
Gladstone 6922, the registered Morgan gelding that won second 
place in the 1922 endurance ride, was bred on the U.S. Morgan Horse 
Farm. He was sired by General Gates, and his dam was Minnehaha 
01760, a mare obtained from the State of Washington. Minnehaha 
was a half sister to Troubadour of Willowmoor. This mare was 
killed by lightning during the summer of 1921, but the U. 8S. Morgan 
Horse Farm is fortunate in having two of her daughters with which 
to perpetuate the good qualities of the family. Gladstone finished 
the ride in excellent condition, receiving a score on this of 56, the 
same as that given the winner. He was only three points behind the
