I really like him. At first glance he has just the right shape, length, musculature. He looks like he's got strong legs, a cute rounded bum (that's me being technical), and that "open" shoulder angle that I learned about from Apples and have since experienced can really predict a smooth, extended mover.

In fact, I had to double-take, he looks so much like the old (stallion-100-day-test-passed) Trakehner, and it's not just the beautiful dark bay colour. If old Tony Trakehner's conformation had the durability to carry him across the Atlantic, over 4' jumps, and have only mild back tightness at the age of 25... and your QH shares his conformation... well, I think that's got a lot of promise!

Hurray for dressage stockhorses! Wanna join my club?
