My 6 year old Gelding. What you think and what breed would you say? I know but just for some entertainment!
 
Your not going to like me, , from the photo he has a nice sloping shoulder, that's it, his neck is weak, he has a long back, and poor back end, his chest area looks poor as well, his back legs look to straight { can not remember what that's called}
he looks like a tb.

Ha ha o gosh he's a wreck! O well I still love him. Dressage judges like him and he can jump his socks off so it's all good! :D

His ass is massive! Just can't really see here. And this is last summer so probably filled out more too.
 
I guessed TB x ID. I disagree re his neck, it doesn't look weak. Also I don't think his hocks re too straight. He IS very long in the back though and has a slight weakness just before his hip. Nice short cannon bones. I like his front legs, but there is something going on in his pastern/hoof axis. It may just be his heels are too long but he has a broken forward axis and I would want this sorting ASAP, whereas his hinds are slightly broken back. So I would question your farrier's skills (unless if is a conformation problem).
