John Wayne was a big guy & he has some OUTSTANDING horses at his disposal. I have watched a number of his movies where he seems to have ridden the same horse. This chestnut with the ‘high white’ markings is especially nice. Would love to have that horse myself.

Uh, er, OK... but you might have to dig it up and brush off a lot of dirt before you go riding on it.

In his later career John Waynes’ horse of choice was a chestnut horse named Dollor. Dollor appeared in “True Grit”, “The Undefeated”, “Rio Lobo”, “Chisum”, and “The Shootist”( in which he was called “old dollar” )
