Galileo stamps his offspring more than almost any other sire. Frankel looks like a clone of Gleneagles!

A lot of them look like Galileo but when Gleneagles was running, I couldn't get over how much he looked like Galileo. It was eerily at times if I glanced up while a replay or something was playing of Gleneagles because on first glance I'd think it was a Galileo replay if it was a close up of his face.

For a thoroughbred that is definitely a good thing :lol: One does not know the meaning of frustration until they've had to fit a saddle to a high-withered horse or dealt with the fallout of ill fitting saddle(s) (like in the case of school horses who don't have just one specific saddle... you end up having to use halfpads, sheepskins, gel pads, foam pads etc. Just to avoid injury and soreness.)

They have updated his photo. Some Photoshopping has definitely happened, but it's not bizarre like the old one.

He is much better looking than Mosler, I think. (Air Force Blue doesn't get to be judged until he stops growing :lol: .)

I've seen him in person and he's a lovely horse. His patterns are a tad long, which you can't see because he's standing in the grass.

Oh la la! I like him!

Curlins are hit or miss for me re: looking like their pop, but he is an awfully big, sturdy boy.
Not a wholesome trottin' race, no, but a race where they sit down right on the horse!

I'd say C. Curlinate is Curlin in a grey suit.

Slap on a chestnut wrapper and you'd have a nice approximation. :D

He looks as solid as the proverbial grey brick s*******e.

Interesting that he only managed 6 starts before injury, and 4 of his well bred siblings are unraced. Makes one wonder if it's a soundness issue via the dam, or some other unrelated circumstances...

He is a solid hunk of horseflesh, but...is he a little straight behind? :?

I believe C.Culinate was injured in a freak workout accident (I think a collision with another horse)

Near-collision, fortunately, but the injury led to his retirement. http://www.alexcampbell.ca/queens-plate ... om-racing/

I think he was just coming into his own when he got injured by the freak accident. Had a real shot to win the Queens Plate, the one that Shaman Ghost won.
Casse had 2 very good horses that year - Curlinate and the ill-dated Danzig Moon.
A very good crop of Canadian horses in that crop - also included Ami's Flatter and Danish Dynaformer.
