Who was the trainer with Burma at this time?

Obviously the rider was not a graduate of the Barbara Woodcock School of Elephant Riding.

Hugo Schmitt was on the Mills Show 1950-53 but this looks like the General's second inauguration so Virgil (K.Y.)Seagraves would have been in charge.

You are right Buckles. This was 1956 and K.Y. was in charge. Two bulls were there, Burma and Una (little Burma).
