I'd guess he's going to be very popular when he goes looking for a second career.

New to stud in Australia this year is G2W Ringerdingding (Sebring x Maybe I, by Red Ransom) who is registered black.

He is registered black, and looks to be so in this photo. Mensageiro Alado recently passed away at 29 (or 28 in the Southern Hemisphere). His Portuguese name translates to "Winged Messenger", which is another name for angel. I think he looks kinda pony-ish in this photo.

My goodness, he looks like a Dachshund.

Cafe Fuerte (Manipulator x Porta Cafe, by Potrillon) is a G1W in Argentina. He is registered on PQ as "dark bay brown" and on El Turf as "bay." His name translates to "Strong Coffee" and he looks black to me. According to PQ, he died in 2019.

Dark Bobby (Shanghai Bobby x Magny Cours, by Our Emblem) won the G3 Clásico Presidente Vargas. He is registered as bay but from what I've seen I'm pretty sure he's black.

Dome is handsome and, with a butt like that, I can see why he's popular with QH breeders.

I wonder how many sons of Storm Cat are still active sires?

According to BH's stallion register at least 58, though some might not be up to date. He only has 2 at the big Kentucky farms though and both are soon to be 27.

His entire structure looks very much like a classic QH. Very handsome.
