i thought he looked outstanding last year-the pink saddlecloth he wore in one of his 2 yo wins just made him look great.
union rags is good looking, but i think hansen is just one of those rare, absolutely gorgeous horses that you can't find fault with. of course his sire is a looker, but he's fantastic looking. and when you have talent to go with it for the whole package, it's a rarity.

Gorgeous pictures.

I'd hate to be that groom! My first horse was grey .... hard to keep them that immaculate. What a beautiful horse indeed ...

I like the picture that shows Hansen in front and the other horses in the background. Ramon and Hansen doesnt have a smear of dirt/mud on them while the other horses/jockeys in back look tired, dirty. Great pics!

And at Turfway Hansen looks like Rainbrow Brite's horse.

they need to get over their fixation of adding color to the horse!

The owner seems quite immature. Kind of embarrassing he tries to steal the stage from the horse.
