It’s funny, Richie said they same thing, but I don’t see it as much as I do with others. Unlike others, he doesn’t have that big blaze and stockings.

EJ won at CD.....He’s a really nice colt, still green. I don’t think he wants to be on the lead, though that’s how it’s worked out the last two

Except that Ethical Judgement is a cool (as far as I'm concerned) play on his sire's name, whereas the Klaravich names are boring, dry names (again, IMO) that have little to do with their sire or dam.
Klaravich names are definitely dry, though it’s easy to pick out which horses are theirs!

What’s wrong with that ? It’s a great name (for a talented colt)...

Mandella has an Honor Code baby currently working well named Above Suspicion...love that name
Above Suspicion is owned by the Myracehorse group. Her name was submitted by someone in the ownership group and then voted on. I own a piece of her.

Ooh, good luck ! She’s clearly very precocious, especially for an HC . She’s worked several times already, and even worked today, just THREE days after working. I guess she must be ready, but this seems highly unusual for Mandella.

in the US at least, i've noticed we're not ones for historical preservation. if they could build over it, they would in a heartbeat.
edit; actually, it looks like they only "officiated" (?? verified??) that it was indeed the site in 2016 after some debate and possibly not much interest in the project, not sure. but there's a nice memorial there, too.
