Yep, Ol' Dollar was J.B. Books horse in "The Shootist".  John Wayne gave him to Ron Howard before he headed out to his last gunfight.

Dollor:The iconic sorrel with a wide blaze made his movie debut in one of John Wayne’s most memorable scenes; he’s the horse carrying Rooster Cogburn during his famous charge—reins in his teeth and guns blazing—in True Grit (1969). Dollor (yes, that is the correct spelling) appeared in many of Wayne’s subsequent Westerns and the Duke regarding him so highly that he changed the script of The Shootist (1976) so that he could mention the horse, by name, several times. Though Wayne never owned Dollor, his contract with the owner stipulated that no one else could ride the horse, and the request was honored for the rest of Dollor’s life

I thought the point of this was for someone to name the horses, and then other people try to tell who the rider was.

 

Not to list both the horse and the rider together.
