Power Broker

I find New Years Day about as bland as you can get. Power Broker looks like he is still growing. And Trinniberg looks like he should be a hunter.

They weren't really going for photo quality with Trinniberg's, apparently.

New Years Day looks like he needs another 4" of leg.

Trinniberg is quite over at the knee, but I like the rest of him.

The others - meh.

Graydar

This particular Trinniberg photo is an informal picture. The farm typically has Barbara Livingston do conformation shots. He is in Brazil now so he's not available now for a photo for 2015.

Good to know, thanks!

Graydar is pretty, but looks stuffy to me.

Union Rags has certainly grown up!

Love love Union Rags but he sure looks a bit overweight there. I hope it's just the photo.

That makes significantly more sense.

It's the one they have in Stallion Register. I think I'd have continued to use a racing shot rather than throw that one up.

Whoa.

Rags is the best looking horse in Kentucky. Arguably.

You obviously haven't seen a picture of Will Take Charge!

I can't disagree with you there. Rags can be 2nd. WTC is about as good looking as a horse can get. I love that video of him on Blood-Horse. He is so shiny, and big, and blingy, and calm, and I bet he even smells good.

I could look at Rags all day long. His official stallion photo is one of the most striking confo pics I've ever seen. He's so well put together, and then he has that stunning eye. And he even looks good when he's a winter fuzzbucket. Yowza.

I'll admit that WTC is up there. I cannot WAIT for his official stallion shot.

I feel like Will Take Charge must have/have had some kind of issue(s), as he was a $425k yearling. That is still a lot of money, but considering his pedigree, I think there was something going on with him that lowered his price or he'd have been a 7-figure horse. It may not have been anything to do with his conformation, but maybe an issue with scope or x-rays? I don't know.
