Born To Sea is gorgeous...except that it looks like someone Photoshopped about 6-7" out of the middle of his barrel.
Can you say 'short-coupled?'

In both images, there's something really weird going on with the right hind fetlock.

Regarding Born to Sea, judging only by those two photos, there possibly is some calcification on the front side of that fetlock. If it's real and not some peculiar photographic illusion, perhaps he had a minor injury or filling there at one time and it healed but left calcification.
I found this picture of Born to Sea as a foal. (He's with his nurse mare, as Urban Sea died from complications of foaling him.) That fetlock looks fine here.

In a thread full of appallingly photoshopped backgrounds, that one is refreshing.
