ARAB, Ala. – The 18th annual Arab Park & Recreation Horse Show got under way on July 11, 2009 with John Fikes of Hamilton, Ala., marking the cards for the 41-class event. This show offered something for everyone from racking horses to local pleasure to performance and pleasure walking horses. Over 200 entries made the gate call to perform for Judge Fikes.
It was Bud Dunn & Son Stables who lead the blue ribbon tally at this year’s show. Trainers Steve Dunn and Tim Smith were definitely pleased with the five victories they took back home to Tennessee. Latham Stables of Joppa, Ala., and Ferguson Farms also held their own with three titles each on their list of accomplishments.
