RE:  Tejanos Corazon (“Smokey”)

Dear George:

I hope all is well on your end.  For some reason, I felt compelled to write you a letter expressing
the extreme amount of pleasure and satisfaction we have encountered with the young colt we
purchased from Done Rite Farms last year.

Young Tejanos Corazon (“Smokey”) never ceases to amaze us. He is taller than my gelding at
this point and his legs are as straight as an arrow.  His conformation is seemingly perfect and
his temperament is beyond belief.  In the back of my mind, I will always regret having him cut
when I know that his daddy is the most beautiful horse on the planet and his temperament is
similar to Smokey’s at this time.  Smokey’s usual day involves such things as basketballs being
thrown in the yard, cats hanging from his tail and my children, although coached to be
extremely safe around the horses, are creating all kinds of mayhem around him.  He is
basically bullet proof.  He is an extremely well-mannered and good-minded horse who seems to
seek out additional training.  He retains what he is taught and seems to strive for more.  He is
an easy keeper and certainly not accident prone as proven by the lack of any vet bills, unlike
some of our other knucklehead horses.  I think the special care Done Rite Farms gave to this
animal have imprinted him with a wonderful love for humans and human contact which is
exactly what we needed.

We also wanted to thank you for your last minute thought to take Smokey to the National
Appaloosa Horse Show in Oklahoma City.  We have never had a celebrity in the family, but his
taking fifth in the Nation in the Weanling Halter Class now makes him probably the most
decorated and famous person in the Granberry clan.  We set aside a little area to display his
prize-winning picture and his belt buckle and it is certainly a fun conversation piece in our
household.

Thanks, as always, for your continued advice, counsel and help.  If we can ever be of
assistance from this end, please don’t hesitate to give me a call.  Also, if you ever need any
references for any of your animals, please don’t hesitate to give me a call.  Smokey is surely
one of the most amazing young horses I have ever had the chance to be around.  We will keep
our fingers crossed that Smokey will turn out half as pretty as his sire, Dandy.  Bar none,
Dandy is probably the  prettiest horse I have ever encountered or seen.  Thanks again and call
us if you need anything.

                              Very truly yours,



                              William J. Granberry
