Yay, you did it!

Wow - like on Scavs pics, that rain was POURING down - that wet stableyard doesn't look very fun to work in.

Look at the muscles bulging on Sumwon - yikes!

I LOVE the DT Stable Colors on the little plaque outside her stall! Who did that?

THANKS, HOFF!

Great pictures! Although you didn't download the picture you're using as your avatar (which looks like a good one, too).

I think we'll all be nervous wrecks on Sunday. It comes with the territory. See you there!

Great Pictures Hoff. She looks awesome. Hope all goes well for the entire Sum1 team.

On a side note, I believe you were the DTer I met late Friday afternoon after Steve's show. Thanks for making the introduction. Wished I had had more time to hang out and get to meet some of the others.

Again, best of luck this upcoming week.

For some reason that one didn't load with the rest, will download that one too...and yes, it's the best.

Yup, that was me. Sorry if I seemed a bit out of it. Day started at 5 AM with a 6+ hour drive from Northern VA.

Thanks again for making the intro.

Sumwon was a pretty cool horse, but the gelding beside her stall made a huge new fan in GPK.

Hacker Craft was his name I believe. What a ham and goofball this guy was. Try and pay attention to him, he pulls away...turn my back on him...he was nibbling and poking at my elbow. Doesn't like peppermints, but he will drink some coke out of your hand. What a great animal he was.

I have no idea where horses's muscles are but the area under her head between both legs looks absolutely awesome. Was ripped as hell.....

Wing, she's not fat , she's just matured, gotten bigger (all around: taller, broader, etc), and filled out muscularly.

Go to this website to see a good pic of the superficial muscles of the horse, and compare to the above pic of Sumwon - you can see those individual muscles bulging under her skin, and identify them by comparing to the picture - pretty cool

http://www.ratbags.com/rsoles/artwor...ford/horse.htm

Here's her first pic from NOLA - compare this (where you can see the ribs, lack of muscle cover) in the immature Sumwon, to above picture of her.

Now we can see how good our trainer is!

Don't worry about it. She's a filly.
