Gaylord Opryland®'s Family Just Got a Little Bigger. Help Name Our New Foal This Week.

Nashville, Tenn.—( July 1, 2007 ) During the early morning hours of May 20, a baby Tennessee Walking Horse was born, making the family at Gaylord Opryland® Resort & Convention Center in Nashville, Tenn. a little bit bigger. The foal is part of a group of Tennessee Walking Horses that reside in the pastures off the Magnolia lawn at the resort. The dam is Generator's Mystique, and the sire is Royal Label. To help welcome the foal into the world, Gaylord Opryland Resort, Tennessee Walking Horse Breeders & Exhibitors Association and The Celebration is sponsoring a "Name the Foal" contest for a chance to win a three day, two night Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration Fantasy Weekend.
