Chestnuts
 
My favorite color on a horse is chestnut, so I decided to create a thread for everyone to list their favorite chestnuts. :D

My all time favorite chestnut will forever be Man O War, how about everyone else???

I have lots of pics from him at Keeneland.


Did you know he has a really dished face? Isn't that cool i just love that. Looks great in the figure-8 noseband too plus he has kind eyes.

I had noticed that (the dished face), he is a very flashy little guy. Do you have the pics posted online?

My two favorite chestnuts are ones I own...Big Daddy Ray (4yo) and his little sister, Shot o' Bourbon (yearling filly)...big white blaze.
One that I don't own, and is better known, Point Given.
And of course...Secretariat!

I really like Megahertz, such a little cutie :D

Oh, and Lawyer Ron, a very handsome guy!

I think Secretariat was a really handsome fellow. One of my favorite chestnuts EVER!!!!!

Smarty Jones was an interesting chestnut - do they call those Liver Chestnuts?

Who is the most expensive chestnut? Mr. Sekiguchi? I have lots of pictures of him from Santa Anita.

Mr Peanut reminds me of Jack Cassidy - David Cassidy's dad.
