Mar 24th, 2016: Clothes Horse

[xoxoxoBruce]

Not just any clothes horse, the handsome Irish chestnut gelding, Morestead, who will be 11 in two weeks, struttin' in his tweed ensemble.
And his friend, 20-time champion and former jockey, Sir Anthony McCoy in matching style.

You would certainly be forgiven for saying WTF? Obviously that's a well tailored, expensive suit

The annual Cheltenham Festival took place this week in Gloucestershire, UK and the popular racing event has become
renowned for the tweed outfits many of the spectators wear.

Not to be outdone, veteran racing horse Morestead showed up in a custom three-piece suit made by former Alexander McQueen
apprentice, Emma Sandham-King. The dapper suit is a first of its kind, took 4 weeks and more than 18 m (59 ft) of tweed to make.

OK, I have a hunch there's a quasi-motive, pimping the Cheltenham Festival, pump the crowd to go blow their lunch money at the track.
They'll have fun, lose weight from skipping lunch, making the little woman happy. It's a win win win.
