I think by Bang Bang they are talking about the Chinese guy An Zhiqiang.

BloodHorse has an article about him at the Keeneland Sale this September:

Must have been vet or serious conformational issues

That LF looks a bit odd-almost like a club foot?

How do I attach an image to a reply? I wanna show a picture of this yearling from the Keeneland with an interesting coat color, but I don't know how to.

Just found an American Pharoah in today's book, take a look

Despite the sway back, her walking wowed me. I love how Pharoahs move.

Do you know if swayback can happen naturally or from a saddle?

Not sure about saddles, but horses can be naturally sway backed. TBF to the filly it’s very possible that she’s in an awkward stage as she’s still growing

You need to copy image address, paste that, highlight it and click on the insert image button(4th button from last) when making a post. You can click Preview to see if it works. Though some places will let you think it works but they break the links, like most of the social medias and some sites don't allow image sharing.

copy the url from the page that just opened,

paste the link between the brackets,

Keeneland sale photos will always break, i believe it happens once a new catalogue is released. so if you want the photo to be in here permanently you have to host it to websites like Imgbb. download the photo, upload it to Imgbb and then just do the same process of opening it a new tab and copying the link etc etc.

I saw one with a very questionable pedigree....good ol' 2x3

You don't see inbreeding to Tiznow that often, but I can understand the attraction to this pairing when you look at how good the 2nd dam, Sweet Damsel, was.

This is probably a dumb question but isn’t it 3x2 inbreeding?!?
Anyway, I like Tiznow and we need more of him… sad that he hasn’t really produced a strong heir.

brunanas · Sat Sep 21, 2024 2:23 pm

since we were talking swayback, i think you guys will appreciate this QH yearling that just sold for $35,000 at the Heritage sale.

his dam was a finalist in the All American Derby and has 28 foals of racing age. granddam is multiple champion Corona Cash.

The correct way to type it would be 3S x 2D. But no one takes the time to add those.

Some of my favorite looking yearlings at the sale!

It says on his pedigree chart that he's a chestnut, but it almost looks like a bay graying (might just be my eyes fooling me) Sold for 5,000

Nice graying filly, looks almost roan. I like her face marking. R.N.A. (13,000)

Looks black, but is graying based on the white hairs, looks pretty black right now. Sold for 15,000
