conformation evaluation

Question

multi 2  

multi 2   hello Brittney, could you please evaluate the conformation of this stallion MULTIDIMENSIONAL and explain how you are able to judge?

Answer

Linda Liz   Hello again!

This horse is VERY well put together. He has a thick neck for a thoroughbred. Most have thinner necks, but that's not a problem. Very well muscled. Can't see his ribs (that's a good thing!) Nice topline (his neck has some muscle definition and isn't lacking). Nice straight legs. Nice head, slightly smaller than the avg tb.

My only complaint is that he has a short neck. Many tb's boast a slightly longer neck and a slightly shorter back; however, if he's racing, it's not a huge deal. Overall, not a bad looking horse. :)

I posted a pic of my tb for comparison.

Hope this helps
