Title: Horse Appearance
Post by: pizzalove on April 04, 2017, 03:39:49 PM
I like to see the horses when I can in action.  Havent seen much yet.  I will be at the Bluegrass and hang around Keeneland for several days but I will also be at the Arkansas Derby.  

One thing I like to do (and it has not lead to success yet) is I like to view these animals like the NFL combine.  Which is getting tougher since my eyes are getting worse and TV does not give you the best picture.

My question is this:  Have there been any horses that have stood out to any of you physically.  Either very small or very large.  I did watch the Louisiana Derby(only on TV) and felt that Girvin looked smallish.  State of Honor (again only viewed on TV) looked like a striking large colt.  Also thought Always Dreaming was a striking horse.  What are your opinions?

Saw IWC up close very impressive looking horse.
I am hoping for a bounce back from him this weekend

I also feel the Tampa Bay winner looked like a big imposing animal.  But again that is a TV view.
