What do you make of Governor?

As I mentioned in the PG I think he's leaning onto his forehand a bit which I think is the main reason he looks quite back at the knee, it's not something i've noticed before to that extent.

(I'm not really posting these for my own benefit as it has no bearing on my opinion of him, I know most of his faults but he does his job and he's a lovely chap. Fire away!)

The overall picture is really nice, I think his neck to do with a bit more muscle but it's well set on and not incorrect, He has a lovely bottom, a little straight through the back leg and his front feet look a bit long in the toe but otherwise he presents a good picture... and he has a really sweet face!!

He looks a lovely sort. He has a good sloping shoulder and good angle to the fetlocks... yes I would say he is slightly back at the knee but his legs appear quite straight and he has good girth room. From the first picture he looks slightly toe-in with his off fore but this could just be the angle of the picture also his neck is set on a little bit low.

Generally, his comformation is good and he looks lovely!

personally love him- so my kind of horse, looks very in proportion with a really nice backend and good hind legs, nice strong back and a lovely kind face.
