Oh I like her a lot. What are you wanting to do with her?

Wow... how much are they asking? Just me being nosey and wondering how people are pricing their young stock now with the market being where it is.

She is really exquisite though.... love that trot. Would love to see some still shots of her as well.

OK remember you asked me for an honest opinino, lol....

I'm going to rewatch the video, not the greatest quality, so hard to see smoe things, but what jumped out to ME is I'd like to see a longer neck and she looks perhaps a bit thick through the throat latch as well... I''m going to go rewatch that. Head and expression are nice enough, nice hookey ears. And at least in the video she uses her tail well... But she honestly doesn't really excite me at all either.

She looks fairly short backed, but also to have a bit of a low tail set and not the greatest croup and hip, more of any apple bum, which can be useful in some types of performance but isn't particularly helpful for Main Ring Halter if you have interest in that.

I personally would like to see a bit more shoulder lay back as well to have her front angles more in balance with her rear....

And lastly for MY taste her head is a bit longish with very little dish BUT I will also say that some heads at this age are NTO what they will be at maturity... Her straight on expression is pretty enough, but for what I like, I don't really care for her profile...

And the more I watch the video and keep stopping and looking the MORE I dislike her throat latch honestly.

I would like to see some GOOD stills of her body from the side, front, rear if I were you and some video shot more close up as well if you're truly interested in her.

She's not something I personally would bring home though, for me too many faults wrapped into one package for what I'd be wanting.

JUSt saw the photos , Ask for some current side shots to really look at the neck/throat latch... It looks a bit cleaner in these shots then in the video although no longer Mom appears to have a pretty expression.

I'm an arab lover but not knowledgeable about the type that is liked. However I love the look on her face and the way she moves. She's very pretty!

THe neck really turns me off on her. Could just be the pictures though. She's not really using it and it looks low set. ( I can't see the vids right now)

I agree with Karyn she does have a long not very exotic face but it's defitnely cute. I love her eye. Very wideset looking. That's something I like.

I agree on the short back but I dont' consider it a conformation flaw. I happen to like short back horses.

Defintely nice hind in motion.

I know not much of a critique but just what I can see from pictures. SHe's cute though!

That stood out to me as well, but I wasn't sure if it was just me or the video quality or if it was really true.
