Please Critique Saluki Gold Rush: In Memoriam 2/23/09

Awwwwwww, I like her. Can't pick her apart as it pertains to racing. And wouldn't pick her apart anyway. I think she's pretty, and still has more changing to do. I like her eyes, she doesn't appear to be a hothead. Nice filly!

Summing up:
Snowbound Paisley
Marciano
Value Plus
Irish Road
Mystiko (too far away)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spex4me,
Albeit his leg markings can't be seen, Maybrys Boy's nostrils are pure sabino. See his picture just as that of Irish Road (previous thread)

Hmmm, looks like Saluki Gold Rush's future son or daughter can be named "Dream Harmony", "American Idol", "Del Mar Match" or even "Greytt Legs"

UPDATED NOW A NOT TOO TERRIBLE 2 YEAR OLD
Just updating Spex aka Saluki Gold Rush, horrible pics today but I wanted to stay on my 3 month average of slapping her pic/progress up.
I think our Strawberry Roan girl is starting the charcoal transition on her rump and shoulders, but then again she also still looks to have a deep red base in that too. (Grey owners feel free to pipe in with what to expect next) This is really fun as it is like owning 10 different horses in one package as far as colors go!! lol
More horrible pix:

trying to come up with something brillant..... this may take a while.
*******ETA********* Mods feel free to toss this into the color forum.... it may be more appropriate there!! Thx!!
I wish I knew how to change the header of this topic b/c someone could say she looks like a rat and I wouldn't care anymore lol!!! But I am just slapping pics up about every three months in case anyone is interested in how much a horse (very lightly trained as of now) changes physically and also her coloring ...... which to my suprise she's holding ....... She is heading back to the track this weekend, so hopefully she'll settle in better by herself than when she did when her buddy was there. If not c'est la vie, she's young and we've got time to try again or just focus on the ring side of things. Not to mention she's a tourist hit galloping through Yorktown Battlefields lol!!
I think I need a shorter handler lol! Hubby being 6'3'' makes her look small!
She's a bit thick...... but she handles 15 mile trail rides like a walk in a park.

My old horse was that *exact* color at two, light spots and all (hence his barn name, "Spot" ). By four, he had greyed out, but kept the same sort of pattern to his coat, resulting in a beautiful sort of mottled silver. Alas, he passed away that year, so I never got to see what color he'd turn after that.
I really like her. Im not sure if it's just the angle of the first picture or what but her back looked so much longer then and now IMO her back is the perfect length. I also love her coloring.

She could be her sires first winner. One of her tail female relatives is entered in the Fasig Tipton open sale at Saratoga #548 a yearling filly Tactical Cat x Bidding Pro out of Bid Your Hand full sister to your mare's dam. If those twin haters had their way back when Spectacular Bid's granddam Stop On Red might have been pinched off or aborted. Her and her twin Go On Green both won races and produced foals.
Thanks for the nice comments. She took me two years to find so she has turned out to be everything I had hoped for, so if she runs well that will just be icing on the cake!! It has been a learning process..... I have never owned a Tb, only worked around them when I was younger and now..... I stuck to the 'safe' bets, i.e. QH's and TWH's ..... only to find they aren't always that safe lmao! I also forgot some of the 'challenges' of a filly vs. a gelding. But we are growing and learning together. Sometimes it is said not to get a young horse to start off in this business, but I have to say she is a blessing. She got me back in the game and now I love working around young Tb's. I think they all have an extra bounce in their step or something.
I look forward to seeing her evolution, color and career. And now my hubby is really scared because I just changed my Saratoga trip dates so I will be there for the sale to see the yearling mentioned above.(Soundfast- he said he doesn't know you but he's not sure he likes you right now lol!! ) But I also have to remember I have another 2 year old in WV , as well as Spex' full sister that is for sale too...... ahhh decisions decisions!!!
Again much appreciation for the comments!

Because maybe this might turn out to be a really good movie
I am a little behind and only do this for those who like to watch the kids grow or the color change (which isn't happening too fast lol!!) Please feel free to move to Color Forum.
