Bonesetter, sired by the Brooks Horse and carrying Pilot Jr. blood, posed to the sulky as a stallion advertisement rather than a race record. A stud sheet sold a different promise than a mare's winning sheet: not a finish line but a bloodline, the stallion's conformation doing the work a purse would do elsewhere. The harness kept clean and slack, display tack rather than racing tack. Some horses run for prizes; this one ran for a stud book.
