Jorge,

There was an interesing looking grey in the 3rd at Gulfstream...I believe his name is Bullseye Boy and on his off side it looks as if someone dumped paint over his hindquarters, but only on that side. I looked him up here on the query and there is no picture of him. He caught my eye...ah, way back in his ped there is The Tetrarch!

Perseveres with his heart
And wins with his character. --Tesio

...and she is as big as Winning Colors was, and reminded me of her when I saw her run...hmmmm


Jorge, on TVG today, I saw a TB run in Washington named Tickettothestars

This horse is not on pedigreeinq, but is listed on the JC names.

This horse was the closest to a palomino (light, light chestnut) with a light cream colored mane and tail, and he won today. I THINK they said his sire is Hilight(?) not sure, but do you know anything about this guy? WOW!!

I want to see a palomino TB on the track and win someday.... :wink:

Let us see if more phenotypical information or photos on TICKETTOTHESTARS may appear. The same for a photo of BULLSEYE BOY

Searched the first one to no avail. Perhaps Lucy may assist here.

STEVIL is officially registered as "gray/ro", but I haven't seen a single picture of him where his gray color is evident. Have you seen any picture?
Thanks for your help.
