I liked Fed Biz in person. He's really good looking. I didn't get much chance see him walk, but he was a $950k yearling, so I'm guessing his walk is fine. He got some nice mares in his first book, especially considering he's not a G1W. Obviously, he has a very solid race record and is G1P. But people also must've liked his looks and pedigree. The fact that he had form on dirt, turf and synthetic probably didn't hurt, either.

I've Had Enough looks like he's had enough. . .food, that is.
I ran marathons. I saw the Taj Mahal by Moonlight. I drove Highway 1 in a convertible. I petted Zenyatta.

Might just be me but it looks like someone copied and pasted another horse's head and neck onto him. It just doesn't seem to fit :/

Is it just me or is this a lower angle and closer up than most pictures? He looks pretty nice, it just seems really tight on him.
Not a wholesome trottin' race, no, but a race where they sit down right on the horse!

I don't think it was taken by a professional.

I still think Real Solution is very handsome. Plenty of bone and well-muscled, yet elegant and attractive.

Lord Kanaloa is very handsome...and he really has that sprinter/miler butt. :D
I must confess...Orfevre's looks do not impress me. If I didn't know what a wonderful racehorse he was, I would just pass him over in a stallion line-up.

The casual photos that @nabecci puts up on Twitter of Orfevre are much more appealing, I think. His official pic is okay but lacks his fiery personality. :mrgreen: And you don't get to see his crazy-long mane (that thing must grow like a weed), either.

Orfevre's front legs scare me. I can't place it, but they look wonky.

Real Solution looks like a tank of a horse. I dig it.
Soylent green is....tasty!!!

I find Anodin pleasing to the eye. Looks small, but full of fire.

If he's anything like his sister, this young stallion may be a handful. ;)
He certainly has that nice, compact miler build.
