It may be the way he's standing, but he looks a little back at the knee.

Pic doesn't show up.

Is this the colt who ran the same time as the sales topper at Barrets?
He sold for what $100,000 and the sales topper a colt by Giants Causeway went for $1.1m... crazy.

Can't wait to see these two race, my money is on the Street Cry colt any day....

A furlong in 9 4/5 seconds doesn't prove anything.

Half the horses that do that don't make the races because they are too wrecked.

And the other half are bought for $1m+ win a G2 or G3 as a 2yr old and retired to stud with some mysterious injury and bred to 200+ mares shipped halfway around the world bred to another 200+ mares for 4 years and then sold to Turkey or Korea - sounds like Coolmore's business plan.

Can't wait to hear what injury this Giants Causeway colt gets....

Why do you assume the Giants Causeway colt will be injured and not the Street Cry?
