and is now at the bottom in nine
feet of water. Coast guard ship

which attracted the attention Of

stablemate War BAN.
Any time your horse runs
against these two colts he is very
much in danger of being whip
sawed. War BAN is a very fast
breaking horse. He steps out and
sets the early pace.
If your horse runs with HIM he
is very likely TO find his tongue
