With topline -

An example from the same horse, one taken march after a month off, one in september after a summer of work.
Poor topline - lack of muscle at base of neck, behind shoulders, over loins and second thigh.

Good topline - horse makes a much more balanced picture, beginings of a crest!, stronger through back and bum more developed.

My horse is only 4, rising 5 yrs old n has no topline at all! He's working correctly n naturally rounded, using his back n going really softly and nicely so it is gradually getting some muscle but is there anything else I can do? A friend recommended a feed like build-up...any thoughts?
