Very white charger-looking, isn't he? I love the "wheat ear" cowlick that runs up the front of his neck.

I want Eishin Flash. I just want him.

I echo that about Eishin Flash. WOW

Luckily for him, he didn't get his father's wonky head.

I never thought King's Best was wonky?

I think it's less a case of being wonky than it is an optical illusion created by the blaze. It's pretty evident on Workforce, and I saw a picture of King's Best that explained where it came from. Of course, I can't find the picture now.

ETA: I can't get to my Workforce pictures here but I can link it later.

Yeah, Workforce does have an unfortunate head.

In the light of the recent spell of horses taken too soon, it's nice that he was able to live a good and long life.
Good for him.

Rest in peace, old man.

Gio Ponti is apparently fully booked.

Woohoo - one of my all time favs. (of course, being o/o an Alydar mare). Followed him when he raced and can't wait to start following his foals...
