You need to make the pictures public. Or put them in a photobucket account, and copy the link to here.
 
My friend has a 3/4 id x 1/4 tb, breeding definitely correct who is the spitting image of yours, except has a flat face. Colouring also identical too.

Thats interesting because sometimes you look at her and think she is way to fine to be ID (in the legs and sometimes you can see it in the neck)
Also when i look at other ID she looks to fine, her shoulders done seem to be a brawed. her passport just says ISH ?????
 
Irish draft crosses are Irish sports horses, it basically means its a sports horse with Irish breed in it, so passport is correct. My first response to the pics was to look at your face to check it wasn't the horse I know the similarity is that close, before I had a closer look at the horse!

AH that awnswers my questions ish = cross breed! THANKS wow i sound dumb but generally didnt know the full meaning.
so now i have to guess what the other half of her is haha little tb i think ??
 
ISH is used to describe a horse of mixed breeds from Ireland so most likely they are ID with some TB blood in though this can range from lots to not much at all.

The chestnut in my Avatar was IDxTB but DEF more like TB, in fact, a chunky TB came onto the yard and he was very similar in bone to that!!

Your mare looks stunning and I would say she is mostly ID, probably not full ID but she's def not a cob.:D
