I know! I didn't realize he had such a pretty face.

All the four of those guys look nice.

He's not so bad, but that lighting- they could have picked a better time of day.

Drives me crazy that in so many of these conformation pictures, the hooves are buried in grass - intentionally? Swagger Jack's image is especially the case.

That photo of Swagger Jack looks like it's from the 70s. That lighting and color profile makes it look more like faded film.

Looks like it's gotten an Instagram treatment.

As if they were trying to make him look like Seattle Slew

Where does he stand? Liked him as a runner, had no idea he was still around.

Thanks for the info.

He looks great.

Not an official conformation photo, but saw this retweeted by Darley. Lonhro has to be one of the most stunning horses I've ever seen

I see that both Lonhro and his look-alike son, Denman, are going to be standing at Darley in Kentucky this season. I hope American breeders take advantage, because they're both stunners, to say nothing of really fast racehorses.

I love him, he looks very well built.

Ugh...the outlining on Sea's Legacy does the horse no favors. His legs look shaved down to toothpicks.

It not on the Three Chimneys or Vinery Australia websites (or anywhere else that I can find), but TCF is using a new conformation pic of Big Brown in ads.

Happy to see Big Brown staying in good weight. He's one handsome fellow.

Logotype, 2013 Japanese 2000 Guineas winner. He isn't off to stud yet, but Shadai posted a nice pic of him

The photo is good, I like that it's on pavement, but the building in the back is a bit of a distraction. Nice looking horse though.

Yay - I can see hooves!
