Hit It a Bomb's new photo looks like someone got a little happy with the structure/sharpen tool.

Security Risk's photo is blurry, but it looks like the Phipps bloodline is strong in him. He doesn't look much like War Front.

This one is an improvement. Something seems a little off though.

Too much weight on his left front and leaning off the other front.

He also looks a little clubby in his right front, but their farrier has made an attempt to get the hoof to grown outward instead of straight down

What a gorgeous hunk of horse. He has Justify beat by a mile in my opinion.

Agreed. Not just because he has (IMHO) a more balanced conformation, but having the great producer, Leslie's Lady, as a dam makes his pedigree superior to Justify's.

I always thought that of the two Scat Daddy's Mendellsohn was a better horse than Justify...both because of his racing career record and length and also of the two I always felt he had better conformation and pedigree...I'd send a mare to Mendy over Justify anyday

Other than having made 13 starts, I don't see how Mendelssohn 's record is better than Justify. I do prefer Mendy's looks --Justify reminds me of Point Given--impressive as a racehorse, but rather coarse as a stud.
I ran marathons. I saw the Taj Mahal by Moonlight. I drove Highway 1 in a convertible. I petted Zenyatta.

I have always had a great love for Recapturetheglory so I am thrilled to see he's still doing well and going strong and had been wondering what farm was he at? I thought there was a rumor at one point that he was at stud in Mexico

i'd actually agree. mendy was screwed by his terrible shipping schedule, had they just left him in the states, i reckon he'd have been one for the ages, regardless of the TC that this time last year was being ripped for interference and not being a real TC win, anyway (that wasn't accusatory, and certainly not to you, Diver, just a statement in general)
