This is the father of the Derby winner. This is what your Facebook page should look like!

Any adventurous and creative readers are welcome, neigh, encouraged!, to craft an online dating website or Facebook profile like our stud horse’s above, except with a few words and photos changed to indicate the featured alpha male is a human and not a horse.
Wait, CH, I’m supposed to say I sired quality children and guided 146 “foals” to their coming of age?
Yep.
