For the second time in three years, Southern Playboy has been named the MFTHBA Breeding Sire of the Year.  He missed winning the award in 2013 but was a Top 5 Breeding Sire.  Southern Playboy has also garnered awards as MFTHBA Stallion of the Year, winning this title in 2013.  Owned by Clyde Connelly, Southern Playboy is the 2006 World Grand Champion and remains the oldest horse to win the prestigious World Grand Championship title. Southern Playboy was bred, trained and shown by Mr. Connelly. In addition to his 2006 World Grand Champion title, Southern Playboy won many other awards throughout his show career.  Southern Playboy was sire by Southern Sunrise and out of Missouri Laurel (by Missouri’s Cassey Jones).

The MFTHBA thanks Mr. Connelly for his contributions to the future generations of Missouri Fox Trotters through his stallion Southern Playboy..  Southern Playboy and Mr. Connelly will be formally recognized for this accomplishment at the 2015 Spring Show and Three Year Old Futurity.
