I don't understand their photos. Bali cannot possibly be that light. Is he really? And why is his face turned like that?

That's just how Equisport shoots. I would've known who took that without their watermark.

Whenever I saw Bal a Bali on the track, he always impressed me as a very handsome horse. That photo is really unflattering.

Well, Coup de Grace was actually bred and raced in the USA, but you're right- there's something in their water.Private Thoughts wrote: ↑Sat Sep 15, 2018 7:50 pm Once again another stunner from South Africa. Must be something in the water.

These recent photos of Bandbox, Coup de Grace, Cupid and Race Day are evidence that Tapit really sires some fine-looking horses. Tapit himself is quite attractive, but IMHO many of his sons are even better physical specimens.
Either Tapit improves his mares, or his stallion managers have made a fine art of picking the right mares for him...or both.

I think I'm in love with Sharkbite. What a hunk. <3
His very dark chestnut coloring appeals to me...wonder if his mane is red like his tail.

Sharkbite is a full brother to Scissor Kick who has a pic on here a bit earlier so comparing the two is interesting both are closely related to the Hasili family. Sharkbite was sold in a online auction a few months ago and I'm not certain what farm has picked him up
