Someone should take a head-on of Diamond Bachelor. His blaze looks like a lightning bolt.

jjacks1, could you tell the folks in the Handicapping thread how to add images to their posts? I see you're not having any problems with it! 

I am quite enjoying these images, by the way!

  Art In Motion is registered as a BAY? Whoever picked that designation for him at the Jockey Club must have done so with their eyes closed!  ::)

Unfortunately, I don't know. Saw the photo on a Tumblr blog - they have a ton of horse racing fans who post pics all the time - most of the time with no horse name OR photo credit. Suppose I could ask the blog owner - couldn't hurt!  ;D

  A Square Eddie colt, Electric Eddie, just finished 2nd in the Real Quiet Stakes at Hollywood Park, and I wish I had a photo. He's a dark chestnut with a flaxen mane and tail...pretty flashy. Earns his name, I guess.

  I don't know where to find a photo of the colt (besides being hopeless when it comes to posting pix :-[), but you could try looking for a replay of the Real Quiet on calracing.com.

Saw it, thanks!  He was pretty striking!  Wish I could've seen the PP.
