I wonder if they don't think he would make a dirt horse or if they just prefer that he is a turf horse.

My guess leans towards the former, at least as to which surface he might excel on. They must have learned something about him since he went into training at Mayberry Farm last March. We'll see what kind of a name they give him. ;)

Yes, he's full to Zenyatta. I think since they've kept him this long and sent him to Aidan O'Brien, they have future plans, or at least hopes, for him.

Thanks for the link, don't think I've seen this pick someone put in that conversation, he's a lot lighter than I would have expected, does he take after dad?

It looks like someone used a filter on that pic. Doesn't seem to represent actual lighting/color.

If he is anything like his sister, he may be going through some serious growth spurts. It's possible that could cause some delays in his training, as his body sorts itself out.
He appears to have quite an engine on him in that photo, not unlike the Big Z. ;)

Or he may be like Street Cry and remain smallish-to-medium. From the photo, which is less than ideal, I think he looks like Street Cry. Zenyatta clearly takes after the mare, but not all of her offspring have. Balance looks more like Thunder Gulch, although she is a bit taller. Ebby is a nice mix of her and Bernardini. She is big like the dam, but got Bernardini'so refinement.

Eh? I don't know how attractive he really would be if he turns out to be a dud on the track.

I'm guessing she's not a fan of cats in her stall and/or paddock lol.

Hopefully fares better than the Curlin colt with the same name.

Given that he cost $6k at the FT October sale, it's extra optimistic.
