Good-looking horse and a great pedigree (which might justify his $4.2 million purchase price), but...a lackluster racing record, to put it mildly. Still, he may be worth sending a mare to, because, you know...THAT PEDIGREE.

There are lots of horses in this thread that I don't see as strong stud prospects but who I would LOVE to slap a saddle on and take cruising around a cross country and stadium course. He is definitely one of them!Life At Zen wrote:Looks like bucked shins. He's cute. Nothing makes me go WOW though.DanLewis wrote:I came across this unofficial conformation shot of Strong Mandate..

Not a wholesome trottin' race, no, but a race where they sit down right on the horse!
Like to see some stuck-up jockey boy sittin' on Dan Patch? Make your blood boil? Well, I should say!

Yea it's the angle, the guy is clearly closer to the camera than Real SolutionIzvestia wrote:Real Solution doesn't look very big at all, but is that guy handling him a giant? He has a nice body, nice shoulder and neck. His legs look a bit short, might be the angle of the photograph.

I like that Real Solution, don't know much about him though. Do not like Mr. Besilu at all, awkward in every way, I don't care what the breeding is. Hero of Order is blah nothing special to me, big looking though.

He's pretty, in a rather curvaceous, Baroque, white charger sort of way. Has a large, round fanny on him...a Quarterhorse might be jealous of those muscles.

Honorable Dillon is just 15.3, only just turned 5 so maybe he'll grow a bit more and reach 16 hands like his sire Tapit. He is a very correct horse. I don't like the position of his neck either, but that was the photographers choice.
