Wonderful pedigree and so cute. Plus, he'll likely like the grass, lol.Summer Bird wrote: ↑Sun Feb 03, 2019 8:07 pm We had a Super Bowl Kitten’s Joy colt out of Belle De Nuit (Arg). He even came with his own little white knee pads!
Maybe I'm old school. Or just old. I just don't recall seeing this much white on TB of the past, and the seeming transformation into paints is kind of weird.
Don't know how far back you go, but the whole "OMG white on them means bad blood and bad racehorse", IMO, probably has a lot to do with not seeing as much flash in the past. We just figured out flash/chrome isn't a death sentence relatively recently.
