He isn't stood up great. He also looks to have the A.P. Indy-line physique, meaning he is an easy keeper and may get a swayback in some years.

Stanford - why put the chain around his nose, then photoshop the slack out... like... we know that it's important to control a horse... but we can see he has a chain on.

I like Keen Ice best of the recent batch.

As de Trebol (Tapit x Adelphi, by Danzig)

~ He has moved to Pleasant Acres from the Dominican Republic. Interesting.

~ Learned his name means "Clover" in Portuguese. Cute. It matches.

He sure looks a lot like Tapit.

Learn (Galileo x Kentucky Warbler, by Spinning World)

~ Both As De Trebol and Learn have moved to Pleasant Acres from the Dominican Republic.

Besides the pavement being on a bit of an uphill slant, those are really nice pics of some very pretty horses! Learn and As De Trebol both look so much like their sires.

I'm surprised at Prayer For Relief. When he'd come into the paddock for a race, he always looked like a man among boys. Now, he....doesn't.

Honestly? Looks like the photo of a juvenile with his winter coat. I'm not an expert but I don't think a 10 year old stud would look like that. Very confused.

He "deflated" when he stopped getting whatever substance he was on during his racing career?

Could be. Here's a picture of him on the Zayat Stables website. Not sure when it was taken. I guess the build isn't too far off?

Blofeld looks like he already has a sway back. They tried to hide it...?
Stanford is ugly in that photo. Is he really that ugly?
Dortmund is very front heavy.

Blofeld just looks like a grey version of his sire to me.
