Stallions › Sunday Knight physical description
As a yearling, Sunday Knight was offered by Arrowfield at the Australian Easter Yearling Sales and sold for $800,000, which gives some indication of his pedigree and conformation.
Sunday Knight is a true son of his sire Sunday Silence. He is a black/brown, 16.2 hh, with the same blaze and white sock as his sire. His colour and conformation gives him a real presence when he steps onto the parade ring. He has a typical Sunday Silence head and a very similar physique.
He is a beautiful mover, and has a way of going through his gears with seemingly very little effort.
He has dominated his foals in exactly the same way that his sire, Sunday Silence did. The majority are blacks or dark browns with the customary running white blaze (or star and snip) and one of two hind white socks. There is an occasional dark bay with no white. This is the same colour patterning as produced by Sunday Silence. They are true to their sire in type and are particularly good movers.
Consideration needs to be made to select mares with good deep bone, strong sprinter/miler physiques and relaxed temperaments. His best foals have come from this type of mare.
