The Perfect Pharoah Pic
 
If any of you run across some nice pics from Saturday, can you post the links here? I'm sure there will be no shortage of merchandise from Saturday but I'm trying to find that perfect pic to frame. The best I've seen have been from NY Post and Times on Sunday - but wonder if there are more (I saw a line-up of about 500 cameras on the finish line, so there must be). A link to a store, photographer, artist .... whatever. If you see something that stands out that would be great. Thanks.

Awesome photo. Handsome lad and yes his muscles have muscles. No wonder he toys with the rest of the "crowd". And he won't have any trouble getting dates when he's ready, TC winner or not.

I'd say it's more about his perfect transfer of energy from the hindquarters, through the spine, and out through the front, than it is his musculature, but he is an impressive looker.

Check out Sports Illustrated's website. They have 21 pictures from the Belmont and the action shots are nice. One with all 4 hooves in the air as he ran.

I resorted to eBay and found a picture from each race at about the same point (wire with victor doing almost the same gesture each time). I want to have a series framed with all three legs.

I will try to post a picture when I get them all framed and hung.

muscles have nothing to do with your reply, I know. And the fact that his stride in long the Secretariat's was and he therefore stays in the air longer than most.

AP had to be created in a lab somewhere. Looks like he is chiseled from stone.

Staying in the air is BAD.

When a horse is entirely in the air, they are slowing down.
