Barbaro must have inherited all the looks in the family.

Straight Man has "that head", doesn't he?

Both nice stallions, with their pluses and minuses. Too bad you can't "cut and paste" the two together to get exactly what you like It's always a compromise, hum?

I think they're both good looking, but I like the shoulder on Holy Ground a bit better...

His back is too short for my liking.

Way later on, at this point - Chuck has posted that the current plan is to run at Saratoga, then take some time off, then come back for her 4-year-old year at the Fairgrounds.

It's an interesting exercise, however!

If I look at him from a comfort standpoint, I see fault in that too. A shorter back means a stronger back, but it also means a rougher ride. LOL

I prefer horses with longer backs myself... my gelding was nicknamed 'The Flying Sofa' because his back was so long... he was awesome to ride though.

He is! The foal would probably be pretty good looking. The name potentials you've come up with, alone, are quite intriguing!

I want to see a front view, standing and moving! (off to BloodHorse, he may have a video there)

i like shorter backs..probably comes from watching show jumping, and wondering how that loooong sob was going to nail the triple combo.
