I would really like to know whether the influence of Dancer's Image
is still around surviving on any talented 21st Century Japanese horse
or if the influence simply faded away along with other forgotten influences such as Kauai King?

Hi,

Such beautiful pictures, I can't say it enough.

Perhaps you have a picture of ORFEVRE?

He is one of the favorites of next sundays Prix de l'Arc the Triomphe?


Thanks in advance, from the Netherlands
