(There was a great call - they drooled over Easy Goer and dismissed SS.) I didn't see it, especially not on the track. He wasn't a 'pretty horsie' like War Chant, but not particularly unattractive to my eye.
I think dynaformer is ugly too...he looks like he could pull a plow...not that he isn't correct, he's just a heavy, common, unattractive animal...IMO. And as stated earlier I hear he's nasty mean.
But for my money if I was breeding to race (not to sell) I wouldn't hesitate to go to him...
