What do you think? Both pictures are Winnie, just at different point in time.

She is overweight in the 2nd pic, carrying too much neck which looks silly against her rather small legs! Have you any photos where she is slightly trimmer and hogged? :) (I personally like the mane!)
 
Hum.. I don't know then.. she suits the hog BUT she also looks very nice with mane when she is slim.. whether hogging her and keeping her slim would make it look worse I don't know. All I am worried about it the rather small legs compared to neck and head in last photo! :o
 
I think, slimmed down, she'd look lovely hogged. I love a good hogged cob but the second pic does her no favours, she looks overweight. Still go for hogged though (I'm biased, mine is hogged)
 
I think your lucky she suits either, my cob is hogged as his mane is just far to thick to try and get presentable!
But her mane looks very nice! What are you hoping to do? If it will involve lots of having to plait/keep main clean Id probably say hogged for ease :p
She is gorgeous!
 
I prefer unhogged too, she has such an adorable face.
Without trying to cause offense though, I would start to keep a good eye on her weight (if the second is a recent photo) especially coming into the spring grass.
 
Second to photo is mid summer, the one added later is recent. Her dark half of mane is no longer dark. She's turned into a little stunner ��
 
Rehog, or let it grow straight up for a bit to see how it looks. A few horses on my yard have it done like this, and with the right mane and neck it can look very attractive kept this way

I quite like the hogged look, but I think a short, neat mane would probably suit her best, just long enough for it to lie flat and not do the mohican thing.
