See the side-by-side comparison below. I won’t give too many clues away, but I’ve got to say that I’m pretty disappointed with the outcome. I’m like a proud parent who expected much greater things of her child—even if the initial tests suggested one day I’d be sobbing into my hanky, wishing I’d backed the other horse. Sorry, I’m so upset, I’m mixing up my metaphors.
