116 is a bay. You do not need Your eyes checked. Bay, with appropriate color tail and mane. That filly looked black to me, maybe I should get mine checked.

Loved so much about him just sitting here reading his page and watching him but he must've been particularly impressive in person for 300+ take outs when people were looking at him. You gotta be into a Tiznow over Storm Cat, looking that good with that speed. I'm a sucker for the female family too. The time was a jaw dropper. I don't normally love pushing the youngsters to do what they do at these 2yo in training sales, but you gotta be impressed with a 2yo Tiznow colt doing what he did in April.

Well someone at OBS does on 116. I see them making corrections sometimes and nobody thought to make one there so it's weird but whatever. I'm just assuming at this point that when they go to name him, he'll be in the JC as a bay as he should be. If he ends up getting registered as black like his catalog page, I give up.
