What do you think of King (SeaSide81 psst) LOL

westernarabians · 07-14-2005, 03:52 PM

Im going to take more pictures hopefully a side one.
The others are to dark cause the sun is goin down.
Oh and you see Kings forelock how thin is it in this picture.I cut it (hehe) and now it looks fuller.
I like him with a straight edge forelock. I know hes got a bite on his neck, thats what the 2 lumps are. And LOL He doesnt have rabies!! Hes foaming at the mouth because I just fed him a watermelon rind.

Hmm, not the best angle for critiquing, but I will give it a go on what I can see.

Head: Looks a little odd because he is chewing, but nice large dark eyes, good width to his forehead, ears are a little long and I can’t really tell the shape of his face much because of his chewing.

Front: Hard to tell neck from the angle, but it attaches nicely to his chest, which seems to have decent width to it and good muscling. Shoulder and withers look nice from this angle as well, but I could tell better from the side.

Body: back looks a good length, not too long, and leads into nice, broad loins and smooth croup.

Legs: forelegs look very good, straight, good bone, and clean. Hind legs look nice as well; I can’t tell anything about the angle of his hocks from here but the thigh and gaskin have very good muscling and the bone looks solid and clean. His pasterns are clean and seem to match the angle of his shoulder nicely. Hooves look good and wide. This is the horse with the "funny bump" on the back pastern, right? I can see it a little in the picture, but obviously does not bother him.

Overall: Hard to make a really good guess from the angle because a lot of things are distorted or hidden by it, but overall my impression is of a nice, solid horse with good conformation that probably could turn his hand to a variety of things.

I also get the impression that he is quite the character personality wise

Thanks Jeda and Cassidy

SeaSide81 Thanks!! Ill get a Side Picture asap. So what do you think I could do all with him? Hes already trained for barrels, he did halter when he was 3 or 4 months old. His Sire did halter, western showing and hunter. LOL King does got eeyore ears, I think its the TB in him LOL His Sire : Arabian (polish-crabbet) Dam: TB-QH cross.
Thanks Seaside!! Ill get a better picture for you-
PS: Im going to do barrels and possibly halter and maybe showmanship, my friend does halter and shes going to teach me and possibly show with eachother for 'fun'
Just wondering what else he may be able to do.

He is beautiful.

3WishesDun · 07-14-2005, 06:30 PM

I think he is a very pretty boy, gorgeous glossy coat, and nice haircut on his forelock. He looks very kind, I bet he is a super sweet horse.
