He reminds me of Exclusive Native. I didn’t know that sireline was still in existence.

A lot of nice-looking horses... I like Hoppertunity the best of that bunch.

Hoppertunity has always been a nice looking horse, but he is gorgeous as a mature stallion. I hope he's getting a decent book of mares. <3

Always loved Hoppy. I was at SA one day when I think Bayern won a MSW by a mile, with an unfancied Hoppy trundling up for fourth, IIRC. Or maybe it was Bodemeister. But Hoppy got on the Derby trail and stayed competitive for years--think he'll do well if owners breed to race and are patient. And he's the sire of Cyrus who won't roll!
I ran marathons. I saw the Taj Mahal by Moonlight. I drove Highway 1 in a convertible. I petted Zenyatta.

Is Firenze Fire a bit dirty or does he have weird markings?

The video showed him coming on truck with blanket on. I assume they just took the blanket off for the pictures. He likely had some dust/sweat combining beneath it.

I was going to be critical of McKinzie (over at the knee?) Maxfield (upright) and Raging Bull (ewe-neck?) but these were all highly successful runners, so I guess I need to be more generous. At least McKinzie has great dapples.

That's just a clean, well made horse from top to bottom.

the ground is loose, they aren't trimmed like that. you can see it more in Raging Bull's photo.
