The White Fox works 5 furs. at River Downs.

For those of you who have no idea who that is. I'll give you a little background. He's one of only 17(?) true white(not albino) Thoroughbreds registered with the National Thoroughbred Racing Association. He's the 3 year old son of Patchen Beauty, one of the only white Thoroughbreds to actually win a race. She won two in her racing career. Horrible record when comparing it to regular Thoroughbreds but it's quite phenomonal when you consider she's one of the only one's to ever do it.

They're now compensating her minimal racing success by breeding her to champion stallions. Whitey here is by Pioneering. Another quite astonishing thing about his very famous mom is that with white Thoroughbreds in the past, it's very rare for them to produce white foals consecutively. With the birth of The White Prince just a month or so ago, this horse's half brother, she's produced three consecutive white foals.

A good photographer can take 10 photos and all are good. A great photographer takes 100 photos and only one is GREAT.

I have never seen a white thoroughbred before considerind the two we have got in my barn right know are dark bays and most thoroughbreds I have ridden are brown,black, or bay I can see why this beauty is rare.
:iconwhiskeyone:
has he ever won anything?
:iconemmy247:
yeah he won once, placed a few times before he bowed a tendon and is now retired to stud.
