Comments

 * In the section "Life and winnings", it starts off with, "Midnight Sun was foaled on June 8, 1940, out of a mostly Standardbred mare named Ramsey's Rena and by the stallion Wilson's Allen." Shouldn't that be, "and sired by the stallion..."?
 * Yes, fixed it. White Arabian Filly  Neigh 21:13, 11 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Shouldn't the third paragraph of "Life and winnings", start off with the sentence, "Midnight Sun was trained by Fred Walker"? As it is, having it at the end of the paragraph, with the details that are discussed beforehand, makes it seem more like an abrupt afterthought.
 * Moved that to the more appropriate place. I think he was initially trained by Winston Wiser, but I have to find a source for that. WAF


 * Also, in that paragraph, what part does the mention that "Exhibiting horses then wore ordinary keg shoes" play in Midnight Sun's particular biography? Again, this seems, at least the way it is presented, like a random insertion, and one that best applies to a more generalized article on the subject of exhibiting horses, than the biography of one in particular.

 * Hmm, I think that was in there because now they shoe performance Tennessee Walkers with plastic pads, which is very controversial. I tossed it.
 * OK,, I think I addressed all the concerns. White Arabian Filly  Neigh 20:31, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I must apologize; my domestic life has been very hectic for the majority of this month. I thank you for addressing my concerns. Herein dwells the greatest dictionary ever composed! (talk) 09:06, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
