Thanks for the link to the Secretariat footage. Outstanding!
Loved the images of Presious Passion from the weekend. What a fun race that was!
Thanks for the link, and the eye candy used in my post 🙂
I like The Roundhouse too, he looks like a monster breaking from the gate!
Agree with Kevin re: Secretariat footage, thanks! I love the hop he does when he realizes he’s cut loose and can take off, super cute! He looked great too.
Thanks for the eye candy. The red, white and blue “appaloosa” spots are cute.
