What do you think of this horse?

Hinds are very close when he is standing.... and a bit ugly??

Ducks from the crossfire.

For me a cob is a sturdy weight carrying horse. That is not a cob. Also the photos do not show the back end so its too hard to make a judgement about the conformation. I do not like how tight it is in the neck and its not taking the contact forward which to me is often a sign of draw reins. The top photo is slightly better but look at her hands she has barely any contact.
It is also pretty expensive for a green horse who has done little and that we are not shown the conformation of.
 
I cant see how they can say hes a "cob"! He looks far too light even for a LW cob.Hes got cow hocks that a Jersey would be proud of. His neck is set on badly and his front feet either desperately need the blacksmith or hes a prime candidate for nav and co.Apart from that, he looks like a nice natured boy but Im sure youd find better for that amount of money!

Hmm silly price... definitely cow hocked, bowed at the front and upside-down neck though I imagine this would improve if they schooled him properly. Don't like front hooves at all. But he looks honest. Way overpriced though.
