From her eyes I can tell she doesn't truly believe in transubstantiation and I don't think her confirmation is valid, sorry :D
 
Elliegirl you need to read the thread "oh dear" that has been running all evening, you need to use the correct word when asking for opinions of your lovely horse, that word is CONFORMATION not confirmation which has an altogether different meaning, hence the religious comments.
 
OP, I should add that I'm only mocking in jest as I've had too much sugar this evening :o Just ignore me. Wait for Spring Feather or Rhino or someone sensible to come and give you a considered opinion of your horse's conformation :)
 
I would really rather see some more photos before I say too much, that one is difficult to 'read' as the photo is taken on a slope and the deep shade makes it hard to make out detail :)

Nice, calm but alert expression. Plenty of room through the gullet. Neck set on well though lacking a bit of muscle. Slightly upright shoulder. Good forearm, looks like she could be a tiny bit over at the knee (hard to tell). Hard to tell if front feet match or if she is a bit pigeon toed?

Good wither but lacking topline (consistent with neck development). Good length of back - definitely fits into a 'square' rather than a 'rectangle' like my boy.

From the photo she looks very straight through the hindleg and possibly cow hocked with upright pasterns; would really need to see a different photo to be sure though :) She almost looks like she is 'holding' herself over her quarters - has she had the physio recently or any physio/chiro problems?

She looks like a nice allrounder/rc type, I'm hazarding a guess she's arab x something; reminds me of an instructors arabxconnemara (same colour as well)
 
Sorry on my phone :o lol she doesnt normaly stand like that :p she has regular 6month checks with pysio :) i have some more piccies in my Álbum on my profile if thats any help thankyouu :)
 
Had a quick look - front legs look ok, slightly long pasterns but nothing I would worry about there :)

Back end looks a bit better in the other photos too but there is still something troubling me slightly - she just looks a bit 'cramped' over top of pelvis/SI. Probably just imagining that though!

Have you had her long?
 
Yeah we have had her from a 3year old 9 now that 1st piccy was from the summer, nOooo you are completly right about si injury hence frequent physio she strained it as a 6yo but is back jumping and everything now but was a long road to recovery but she is sound and havent had any problems since hem hem touch wood lol

Click to expand...

That's probably what I was seeing then... She does look good, but if you could increase the muscle tone/topline a little bit it would also help support the SI :)
