difficult to tell but only fault I can see is possible upright shoulder. I'ts not easy to see from the pic and it could be due to the shoulder area being white. He's rather nice :)

Shoulder a little on the upright side could have a better length of rein but quite nicely put together :)


Thank you for that.

here is a couple other pictures from other angles. I am not very good at the whole conformation thing

Can't decide whether he's back at the knee or over at the knee.

However, generally I think he's really nice and is going to mature in to a smashing little horse.
 
Have a little look at this.It gives a pretty simple definition of forelimb conformation.http://www.horseinfo.com/info/faqs/faqconformQ4.html
Thank you for that link amymay, that is really useful. I will be going up tonight, so I will try and take a picture of her standing properly but its very hard to do with a youngster lol.
I also thought over at the knee slightly. Shoulder could be more sloping and short neck.But that's being deliberately critical on small points. He's actually lovely!
Thank you
 
Looks very smart, agree with the upright shoulder comments and slightly over at the knee. Would also say that she is bum high - but she is only a baby with plenty more growing to do

Thanks.

Yes, she is still very bum high but she is only 18 months, so I am sure she is going to change alot more in the years to come :D
