The Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration received 4,197 entries for their 69th annual event, compared to 4,571 received by the entry deadline in 2006. This is a decrease of 374 entries, or 9%.
The 2007 event will see 24 split classes, compared to 29 split classes in 2006.
The 4000+ entries are encouraging in a season of unrest in the Tennessee Walking Horse industry.
