  It's pretty amazing how many of these foals have almost the same blaze as their papa.

  Since everyone loves the Shackleford photo in my post, here's my ode to Shack, 2012 ...A Good Horse Is a Good Color
  
  A Good Horse Is a Good Color
  Liz O'Connell The Huffington Post Posted: 09/04/2012
  There's a saying, "A good horse is never a bad color." Good race horses do come in all colors. Man o' War was Big Red, a chestnut. Native Dancer was the Grey Ghost. Currently, the magnificent Get Stormy is a mahogany bay with white markings. And then there is Shackleford.
  Shackleford is a chestnut with white markings. The reds of a chestnut can vary from bronze to terracotta to copper. Shack is a clear copper chestnut, with a broad white blaze that runs down his face and flares out to include his nostrils.

  I always like Shack. He, along with Mucho Macho Man, were such beautiful reliable runners, took on all comers and did their very, very best. Best of luck to them; long and happy lives.

  The photos are for sale at $50 each. Does the photographer get most of that, or is their a big cut that goes to an intermediary the way the written works of authors don't pay much to the actual authors?
• Rachel Member

  i would imagine that the photographer gets atleast some of it, if not most of it. I would think she would be getting most of it lol its Barbara Livingston for crying out loud.
