Huh. He's much more handsome than Street Sense, IMO. I'll be curious to see Street Boss's confo pic.

I think J Be K is better looking than Spring at Last...JMO. I was a fan of SaL. Badge is gorgeous.

Me, too.
And I agree wholeheartedly.

I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that pic, because I was not at all impressed with him in January. A few more months to let down and mature makes a big difference. I like Street Boss. He's more or less correct, but he's a tad smallish and not flashy (if that's even important). He seems to be a super nice horse to be around.

I like him too. Him and Street Boss both have interesting families anchoring them.
Nobody said giving Kirstie Alley a colonic would be easy.
Just my observation but Street Sense seems to have a shorter back than Street Hero. Maybe that's why Hero looks more...handsome?

Well, in all fairness to him, Darley's confo shot of Street Sense is not a good one, if you ask me. But he just looks - all around - more coarse and kinda plain. Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike Street Sense, and the fact that he is from the immediate family of Mr Greeley is also promising.

Probably. I do question some of Darley's shots, but SS has never been that flashy.

Street Sense really does have a short back, it's not just the pics.
Absolutely unimpressed with the photo of Chichicastenago. He looks like he would travel very heavily on the forehand, what with being butt-high and that low, thick neck.
Jeremy looks to be poorly stood up and also very, very high in the rear end.
Welcome back, Slinky. I wish you'd stop back in more often. :wink:

Meh. He's a tad overpriced, if you ask me. For only $2,500 more you can get Badge of Silver, and for $5,000 more you can get Spring at Last. Both have much better race records, (SAL a Gr 1 winner), and both are better looking, in my opinion. If you're wanting a son of Silver Deputy, that is. :smiley:

I've never seen the horse so I don't know if its a good representation or not of him, but I'm disappointed in Aussie Rules' photo. He's got one of the best pedigrees in the world. I expect big things from him, at a very fair price for Euro breeders.

Aussie Rules' photo is weird. I believe it is photoshopped. He looks like a nicely conformed horse, so it's too bad his photo isn't better.
Dylan Thomas is really nice looking, with a really elegant head and neck.
Data Link ~ Departing ~ Frontside ~ Jimmy Creed ~ Perfect Shirl ~ Point of Entry ~ Snow Fall ~ Summer Front
Yeah~ Dylan Thomas looks pretty wonderful !
I can't wait to see his big success as a stallion. :grin:
Two very stupid questions here as I am not conformation-savy like most of you are, but the appearance of Ivan Denisovich's hind end area looks awkwardly huge because his tail appears set too low? Am I imagining things or not?
If you were a cookie, you'd be a WHOREO!!!
Wow, Scat Daddy looks a lot like his dad.

That's good to hear. I liked him a bit as a racehorse and his damside is pretty unique.
He's tail-female to the grandest of them all, Mumtaz Mahal. This branch has been very productive for Coolmore.

Nobody has posted this?!!
