I don't think he got enough respect in the US and I'm sorry he's gone, but I'm good with him being where he's more appreciated.

Agreed. I'm happy the Aussies wanted him.

I don't know. He may have put on a little more flesh, but in all those photos he still looks powerful, with that deep chest and shoulder and that thick, crested neck.
I'd ride that stallion into battle anytime.

He doesn't look like a bull though

Jeepers, he looks like a Holsteiner stallion who hasn't been ridden in a while and gets a lot of food.

When it comes to Tapit sons, he is nowhere near the top of my mythical breeding choices.

Yeah, I find him a little underwhelming.

He was precocious and better than his peers at two and starting his three-year-old racing season.Then his peers caught up to and passed him.
Even now, it's like he never really finished growing.

My first thought was that that is a pregnant mare.
