OK, I'm new here but I'm going to jump in anyway and express my never-to-be-humble opinion. ;)
I don't much care what you think Ellery looks like (well, that's a lie...) but Ennis needs a good looking horse and that would be the buckskin or the dun. The one underneath the buckskin is a boodmare, her foal is behind her. I think the last one is just plain ragged looking. His horses have always been important to Ennis, so give him the best you've got. Nellie looks really good, but I've never cared for horses with stockings so I'll not even comment on Socks.(Sorry to be so pushy. I followed MaineWriter's link to Louise over here from Dave Cullen - as if that's a reason.)
For what it's worth.

oooh some strong horse opinions! Yeah I like the "Nellie" one a lot. Socks of course, had to have ... socks.

Tamarack, welcome, glad to have here!
Push away, if you peruse this thread you can see we are busy discussing anything and everything down to the last excruiating detail. (I am still waiting for someone to comment on the jar of Vaseline with the slightly ragged label and the screw on cap, which would have been appropriate circa 1984. This is the prop mistress speaking!).
I agree completely...horses are important to Ennis. Give him the best!

PS. Did I have a link to this board on davecullen? I thought it was in Louise's LJ.
louisev:
As far as I am concerned, invite anyone who wants to talk about the fic, as long as what they want to talk hasn't got references to "dancing on Jack's grave" etc etc. Still steamed about that.
tamarack:
Wow - I've been trying to get back to this point since I posted that one comment. Nothing would load for me. Has anyone else experienced this? It is very, very slow, and I have DSL, not dial-up.
Anyway, you know, it probably wasn't from Dave. Must have been Louise's journal. Hope I didn't freak you out with that comment!
