Horse Racing Forum - USA Thoroughbred Races

Here's a thread for racing horses that we think are particularly pretty, whether they are just plain bay or spotted.

17.2 hands? As a 2yo? That is a BIG baby.

Methinks his size and history of WLD is what kept him from racing, though it's possible he's done growing "up" and would still be able to race if not for WLD.

He's definitely a horse fit for riding into battle though.

Freud is pretty

There's a black or nearly black horse named Magnolia Midnight running on the NY circuit that I have found to be very striking. Don't have a picture of him though.

I think Corniche is a very pretty boy. His Color sort of stands out because he’s not your typical cherry bay.. he’s more of a milk coffee bay. Also, his confirmation is pretty neat.

Also, a mare from back in the days named Charmander. I dont know if she is still alive, foaled 1998, but she was like a flea bitten gray with some chestnut spots. If you look her up on pedigreequery, there is a photo of her that Barbara Livingston has taken. She’s by Dehere o/o Expressive Dance.

Thanks. He's one of my favorites still in training.

I would be remiss if I didn't post a photo of Honor AP and his sire Honor Code. Not the best photo I know, but I wanted one snapshot to cover them both
