I was talking about his face. It just reminded me of that photo.

At long last, Normandy Invasion has a decent conformation picture up, since he’s now at Spendthrift.

The Malibu Moons do seem to be hunks...or chunks, depending on whether you like that look.
And they must be easy keepers, because I don't think I've seen a slender one.

Someone should tell Claiborne that, because they seem to be stuffing poor Orb with grain over there.BaroqueAgain1 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 10, 2018 8:53 pm The Malibu Moons do seem to be hunks...or chunks, depending on whether you like that look.

Holy ^*^*
I know Orb is a young stallion, but he looks like he's out of shape, middle-aged and starting to get a sway back.
But very shiny.

Call me crazy, but I don't think Orb looks that fat. His neck is huge, but that's not uncommon. He looks a lot like Malibu Moon and the A.P. Indy tribe tend to get swaybacked, often at a fairly young age. They also tend to let down quickly and carry a lot of flesh.

His face reminds me slightly of Justify's actually, although J's head is bigger and Lord Nelson's slightly more refined they have a very similar eye shape.

"Carry a lot of flesh" = fat. Stallions, even older stallions/AP Indy descendents (Stephanoatsee included) shouldn't look like that.mariasmon wrote: ↑Thu Oct 11, 2018 12:58 am Call me crazy, but I don't think Orb looks that fat.

Whenever I see a Claiborne stallion my mind goes to the images of Secretariat in the 1980s when he was a founder case waiting to happen.
