In 1967, shortly after Elvis Presley married Priscilla Presley, he bought the Circle G Ranch which he also filled with livestock. To commemorate the event, Elvis gifted horses to his entire entourage - The Memphis Mafia - and Priscilla. He also bought himself a golden palomino, which he named Rising Sun. Elvis named Priscilla's horse Domino. The couple frequently went on romantic horseback riding dates across his ranch after they got the steeds. The horse barn soon bore the name 'House of the Rising Sun'.
Rising Sun survived until 1986 and was buried in the Graceland pasture facing east, into the rising sun. At his death, a nationwide search was carried on by Elvis Presley Enterprises for a related horse of that same golden palomino color. They found Sun's Reflection, a distant relative.
There will always be a golden palomino at Graceland in honor of Rising Sun.
