These pictures are lovely.
Animal Kingdom is a beauty. I really like the looks of Jimmy Creed. Graydar looks like his sire. Flat Out is a knockout. Violence has a huge body and such tiny legs, he looks like a big kid playing with the hanky. And Point of Entry looks nothing like his sire.

Had to check out the pics for a second time. Graydar just steals my heart, what a big fellow he is! Astrology is nice, and New Year's Day is very nice too. Would love to see a nice conformation shot of Paynter, Take Charge Indy and Flat Out.

I can help you out with some some very unofficial conformation shots of those three.

ChiLex, thank you for those pictures. To me, Take Charge Indy is reminiscent of his sire, only perhaps a bit more stocky. Paynter appears to be a bit plain looking, and also is reminiscent of his sire, Awesome Again. But the fact that he's alive and able to stand at stud is thrilling. I like the photo of Flat Out because of the way he's looking toward the camera.

At the risk of being scolded for saying something obvious, I know only a small percentage of stallions become elite sires. My reason for saying so is that I wish all of these stallions only the best and hope they become useful sires if not elite ones.
