Not surprising he couldn't hold it together. :shock:
I was about to say he's handsome and then my eyes went down to his legs. :shock: :?

Right?! Who looks at that and thinks it's good idea to send a mare to him. You'd have to have a pin straight mare and hope that will counterbalance his crooked legs. Even then why chance it?

tbf that's what Into Mischief looks like (though his got like that at ~15 and Shaaz is 6) and people don't seem to care and buy his yearlings with crooked legs for 7 figures, so...

Even IM isn't nearly that bad. IM is crooked but he doesn't look like he's about to fall onto his face as his legs give out from under him.

As a 2YO when he sold for $1.1 million. :shock: The press release for his retirement says he offers breeders "faultless conformation" which is cute.

I think so, i remember first seeing him at the farm many years ago. They were putting on wraps on him. And now his front looks worse, almost like kneeling over

He’s also spent 20% of his life on top of a mare so… :roll:

But yeah it definitely looks like age isnt helping those knees. He’s old, but not ancient. It’s a bit alarming for him to have those knees at this point in his life. I can only hope it isnt as uncomfortable as it looks.
