Re: RC: size

Gee I don't know about that.  Many of the Arabs on the track and in training down
her in FL are pretty good size.
Many go around 15-2 and some bigger.  It also seems that the racing Arabs - at
least the ones I've seen down her - are getting taller and more TB looking as
time goes on.

I think the next 5 years will be very interesting to see how this all evolves.
