Wow! Now that was some race. I thought So You Think was beat, but he just lowered his head, dropped his shoulder, and kept coming!

Same! I thought he was beaten, but he found two more gears and rushed by. Very nice race and a thrill to watch!

Loved this race! So You Think reeled him in....very classy, professional performance here from SYT. Plus, he's in great shape and improving. I hope he can stick around for a while!

He ran a blinder - one from after the race today. I only had my small camera with me, so excuse the quality, but thought it was worth posting, since he seems to have so many fans! :)

I've read he's a big horse--true?

Was hoping Snow Fairy would run better, but it was a tough assignment for her first race back. Watch out for her next time.

Nice pic. He's such a good looking horse!
I wish he still had the rock star hair style though. Whats wrong with those brits... :mmph:

He is not as big as I expected him to be. Big enough and a nice type, but not the monster that I have heard him described as. Glad I got to see him win the Eclipse though :bowl:

Snow Fairy is a lovely filly - you could never mistake her for a colt! She seemed tiny compared to the boys, but she has a nice eye.

on the tv he looks more big boned than tall...thanks for the photo...lucky you to see that race. poor workforce, i felt a little sorry for him, he did his best but in the end it seemed pretty easy to get by him
