Just for those of you wondering about white feet. It has nothing to do with temperment. For some reason, white feet tend to be much more sensitive. I know of a certain horse who has set the Saratoga track record for 5f on the turf three times in the last two years who can't run more than a few times a year becasue of this condition. He requires long breaks to allow the feet to heal. If it weren't for his feet, he'd likely have won a bunch more races.
