Heavenly Blue looks really pretty. I hope they get him a better photo when he fills out.

Global View doesn't have the most powerful hindquarters I've seen. :oops:
Heavenly Blue's shoulder looks weak, but maybe it's the photo?
And the cute Eightfold Path is showing his Arabian ancestors with his topline and proportions.

Today should be a national holiday. Airoforce FINALLY got a decent photo. Congratulations my boy.

Very Arabian-y.

Maybe someone upped the contrast on Hi Happy's photo to produce that metallic gold sheen, but he looks like an Akhal-Teke in that shot. 8-)

Good analogy. He does look Teke-esque.

I don't know whether he was sold or he's shuttling, but Hootenanny is listed at Haras Santa Olga in Chile.

I think he is shuttling. He was at Buck Pond but then moved to stand privately for Ward at his farm.

Regardless, this picture is 100x better than the other one.

Encryption (Lohnro x Guelph, by Exceed And Excel) stands at Eureka Stud in Australia. Both of his parents are champions.

The fact that Guelph already has a son at stud makes me feel very old.

Got me confused for a minute there because the Guelph that I'm most familiar with is the 2x NSA champion hurdling mare who's produced a champion MD-bred steeplechaser. Forgot about the Australian mare.
