He would prefer to have his ears like this but it makes him as unphotogenic as his human mother!

The colt is doing so well that he's going to be entered in the FT October sale. Physically he seems to be the right horse for that sale so let's see what happens. I'll be out there to see him this weekend and to talk to the consignor and watch him in the round pen. He loves it and is willing to do anything he is asked.

He looks like he's going to be good sized, looks like he'd make a lovely elegant hunter.

Tap-
There have been many people that have seen your horse. Myself included we all believe that your horse looks like a million dollars. I hope that you have success in whatever you do.

All Hugs !

It's been so neat watching him grow up into such a handsome young man. I've really appreciated the photo updates, Tappiano!

Go away, Jeff, your opinions are not wanted or sought after in this or any other thread of mine. As someone who has proven to be a dreadful breeder who had trouble getting his horses to win races at such a high quality track such as Grants Pass, you would be better served to have threads saying what NOT to do as that is your best trait.

As far as I can tell from the photos, it takes 3 seconds or less to make out that he appears to be a really nice colt, even a long look, I don't see anything about him that I dislike.

Pfsue's the one came up with the 3 second rule, and I like it, cause being a glass 1/2 full optimist and a thoroughbred horse lover to begin with, I always like what I see in the first 3 seconds.

You should be fun and happy having a nice colt like that Tappiano, but you'r not. Dear Lord, please cheer Tappiano up this fine Sunday morning, in Jesus name I pray, AMEN.

There, maybe a little prayer will help :D

Well thats where I make my mistake by taking a short time to look at something. ( 3 Seconds) - not making fun or anything.
It takes me atleast two to three days to look at a fine picture like showed in this thread - and make a comment. :D

Jef, the fact that you admire a stallion that I thought looked like a Quarter Horse with odd conformation has absolutely no bearing on this thread.

Pfsue,

You followed me into another thread to insult a stallion's photo that I said I liked.

I felt like rather than be like you and say something not nice, I'd just be the opposite and say something nice and positive about a horse.
