Not really a true conformation shot- but Winstar was nice enough to share this pic of Bodemeister under Western Tack- looks like you could jump on and go cut some cattle- very handsome!
(BTW- they report that he covered over 170 mares this season)

Oh gosh, he's something else. LOVE this photo, and love that Winstar rides some of their stallions.

So many different looks...really kind of amazing how many different body shapes good horses can have.
I find Colonel John very attractive, and he looks almost racing fit. He must be one of the stallions who gets ridden regularly.
Paynter looks really short-coupled, and Pioneerof the Nile looks quite long-bodied.

From those pictures, you'd never know that Distorted Humor was in his 20s.

These are a huge improvement over the last set they had. Looks like most of their stallions are keeping fit or have slimmed down some.

Distorted Humor does look good.
Artie Schiller looks longer in the back than I remember. I also think Speightstown looks incredible.
Take Charge Indy looks very upright.

Maimonides makes me cringe a bit on those fronts.

I don't recall DH being that long in the pasterns.

DH has always had unfortunate pasterns and seems to pass that train on to quite a few of his offspring.

I'm loving Tiznow! I'm glad he's doing so well as a stud!

Both colts are gorgeous, each in their own way. Camelot looks like a classic middle distance/stayer type, while Declaration of War has the powerful muscling and caboose of a sprinter/miler.

They do a nice job riding the stallions that enjoy it and will allow it(Tiznow will roll to get the rider off :lol: ). DH is very handsome under Western Tack- may be able to find a pic somewhere.

The Winstar pics are amazing. They're WAY better than those night time indoor disasters they used to have. I love just leafing through.

Am I the only one who think Colonel John looks like a sports car? Or like a jock, but a basketball/track/soccer jock. Not a football player. :lol: He's just very appealing to the eye. Maybe it's because he still looks fit and ready to roll.

Sidney's Candy is also surprisingly nice to me, in that "armored tank" sort of way.

Sidney's Candy's good looks have been widely noted since his racing career. Pletcher called him a statue.
