Indian Charlie still looks better than his grandson's recent photo.
Zaskar is claimed to be 16.2hh. He does look taller in other photos of him.

Indian Charlie wasn't bad looking and he didn't make bad-looking babies, at worst they look a little Quarter Horse-y.
Chonky, but very handsome equine.

Windstross has such a short back and barrel that I wonder if they had trouble fitting a saddle on him. :?

Will Take Charge looks almost race fit. Doesn't Three Chimneys ride/gallop their stallions?

IIRC several farms in Japan do.

He does look a bit worried lol, this is why grooms usually cluck or jangle keys or something to get the horse to look at them instead of peering at the camera when taking a confo shot.

True but I'm pretty sure WTC has a wall eye.

He's a better-looking horse than I remember him being. For being off the track since 2015, he looks amazingly fit. And he has an attractive head (if you can ignore all that white splashed across his face), unlike many of the hammer heads UBS bequeathed his offspring. :?

So many horses with no heels--when the heels are in grass, I have to wonder if their feet are even worse. :(
I ran marathons. I saw the Taj Mahal by Moonlight. I drove Highway 1 in a convertible. I petted Zenyatta.
