I really like this young stallion and I'm curious if anyone here has or is planning to book to him this year. Seems he has a lot going for him and is an excellent value at $7,500. The Pulpit over Epitome pedigree is very intriguing. I also think of all the stallions pictured in this year's registries, he's one of the real standouts.
I'm interested in any comments...both pro and con.
Thanks,
Laurie

So many pedigrees...so little time. (C)
hi ZiaLand
My experience is that Essence of Dubai makes a very good...strong...and positive impression.
He's what might best be described as an average-size horse with lots of quality...that is Exceptionally well-balanced and proportioned...with an outstanding set of legs. All of this may explain his $2.3 mil purchase price as a yearling..
I believe it's fair to say that he's a very athletic and racy individual...looks clean-as-a-whistle...and is a FANTASTIC walker.
In the flesh...E of D is a very "high-energy" horse (certainly not placid or laid-back)...that seems to have a particularly forward (or possibly aggressive) way about him...the kind of temperament that I expect serves as fair-warning to a handler (or groom) that he/she might best be served by never taking their eyes off of him (or letting his/her mind wander) when working around him...even for a moment.
Respectfully
