Classy, rising 3, draft cross

Serenity · 10-13-2009, 06:24 AM

Now that Classy's grown and matured more, what do you think of her confo?

411

Rising 3 yr old
Paint/Percheron
Just started backing her and walking around
She will eventually be used for low level dressage and hunter
Her sire is 15.2hh, her dam is 17.1hh and right now she is about 15.3hh

Right side

Left side

Front (not sure if she was standing well enough to take this picture, but it's a try

The only thing I could think of is her neck looks like its coming out of her shoulder a little odd. And her front leg looks like she may toe out a little, that could easily be the picture though. I really love her sturdy build and how evenly she crossed between the two. She will have a lot of rail appeal in the dressage ring. PRETTY GIRL

Now I like the way her neck is! (But I have saddlebreds so that skews my view?!

) Hard to tell by the angle in one shot I love her back length in the other it looks wicked short. But all in all she's a very sharp looking young lady and has just a nice mix of bulk and refinement for a 1/2/1/2 draft cross!

She's beautiful! I love the mixture of features she inherited from both breeds. She looks quite nicely balanced to me, and I love her markings.

Shes beautiful...and you can totally tell what her cross is. Her neck does look to tie in alil funny...but shes beautiful either way...def a eye catcher

She is beautiful and looks like an English cob used for fox hunts.

She is beautiful.

The only things that jump out at me, she looks like she may be a bit over at the knees ? Not sure what that could mean, performance wise ...

She also toes out slightly in the front.

Still...a beauty !

I was gonna say the same thing....looks over at the knees. Otherwise, I don't see any glaring conformation faults. Nice horse.

Very pretty girl! At three (almost?) she still has a LOT of filling out to do. I LOVE the cobby way she looks right now. I'd love to see her in a couple of years, I'm wondering how much more drafty she's going to get... She does toe out a bit but not too bad. How does she move? Does she travel fairly straight? Overall she looks very balanced for her age.
