Whatsthedealwithhoneywantshermoney?

Postby Sailor Kenshin » Wed Mar 02, 2011 5:57 pm

OK, forgive me the thread title, but Honeywantshermoney has one of those modern, horrible, my-face-hit-the-keyboard names.

Her entry says she's dark bay but!

When I saw her today in the ninth at Aqueduct, she had this white spot at the base of her tail.

Is this a stable accident? ("Oops---my bucket-o-bleach slipped!")

Is it the weird beginning of graying out?

Wish I could find a picture of her to post. :cry:

Did her tail look like this:

That's called rabicano, or more colorfully, skunk tail. 8)

Gorgeous pics---but either I didn't get a clear view of her tail, or that's not quite it---I got the impression that the white spot was high up on her tail and it seemed only the size of a fist---not that skunk pattern.

Where does it say she passed away? I think she took third in the ninth yesterday.

Now that's puzzling.

PS: OK--- I didn't see that when I posted the link yesterday. It must have been added some time after. :cry:

Some further information, though not much:

Right after the finish

I think there was more than one racing spill that day.
