Hi everybody,

Some news of my colt Color.
He tried for the first time of his life the starting boxes.
It's very shy, but it's a first time :

That is VERY cool! Really looking forward to hearing how he did ... and as long as he arrived back from his first race happy and sound and not hurt or scared, thats very important ... :)

Congratulations - he looks fabulous!

Wow, This French colt makes me remember so much the phenotype
of VALENCAY http://www.pedigreequery.com/valencay2 . Valencay was
a cropout very louded spoted French colt who was offered for sale at the Deauville Yearling sales back in 1964. I don't know what happened with this colt afterwards but he was quite a sensation; but those were other times when atypically spotted Thoroughbreds were completely ignored (at least from a consequential perspective).

Very very glad for
COLOR NOTCH UP: http://www.pedigreequery.com/color+notch+up
Good luck during his racing and BREEDING career! :idea: :idea: :idea:

Vanessa, thanks for sharing this thread about this quite interesting and auspicious colt.

He did not finish with the head of the race one but we are happy, he got out the starting boxe very well, did all the race : it was a good training race for him. :D
