Nyoooom!

Love seeing the old guys going full-tilt.
Not a wholesome trottin' race, no, but a race where they sit down right on the horse!
Like to see some stuck-up jockey boy sittin' on Dan Patch? Make your blood boil? Well, I should say!

I see that he's wearing protective boots on his front feet. I'd guess that the old boy can still reach out with that ground-devouring stride of his. So cool.

That's a great shot of him. I also like his fancy two-tone blanket.

Seriously. :lol: And those tail guards, while theoretically useful and attractive, are a real rhymes-with-witch to clean. :roll:

Indy is 27... Holy cow he looks amazing for his age.... That's just a testament to the wonderful job the folks at lanes end do with the horses

Old Fashioned joins Divine Park, Bob and John and Musket Man in South Korea. Was a fan when he ran and sad to see him go but can't say I'm all that surprised

Ashford offering a 2 for 1 deal on American Pharoah covers - if the second mare has graded stakes/blacktype credentials.
