i think he is just a very flaxen chestnut.
Definitely a flaxen chestnut. Also a painting horse lovers should see in person if they can, IMO (it's in the National Gallery in London). Prints/reproductions really don't capture its majesty.
Been lucky enough to have seen it several times, it is just stunning in person. When I visit the National Gallery, Turner's "Fighting Temeraire" and "Whistlejacket" come first, then I just browse.
I ran marathons. I saw the Taj Mahal by Moonlight. I drove Highway 1 in a convertible. I petted Zenyatta.

I saw "Whistlejacket" when it was on loan to the Kimball Art Gallery for a Stubbs exhibition. It's huge and when you walked in the gallery, it was at the other end taking up the whole wall. Absolutely amazing.

Felora (full sister to German Oaks winner Feodora) was the "wife" or "girlfriend" of Japan when he first retired to Gestut Etzean.

A similar yearling was sold at Goffs UK recently for £68,000.

Hip 2267, Essential Quality x Thinking Colt

Registered as Gray but the way he's graying out is identical to a bay roan, infact if I didn't think any better I would say he is one :lol:

Whichever he ends up as, his present coloring is really handsome. Almost a blue roan tone.

Wasn't there a foundational stallion known as the Bloody-Shouldered Arabian?

This painting of the Bloody Shoulder Arabian gives him a much more prominent bloody shoulder.
