Based on the first photo, not a bad filly, but not one suited for hard work. She is too light of bone. Tied in at the knee, and gaskin. She is close in at the elbows, which makes her forelimbs turn outward and will limit the range of motion of her forelegs. Her hocks should be more substantial, especially for a horse going to be used for hard turns, fast starts and quick stops. IT almost appears as if she is trying to be sickle hocked, but may just be standing under herself behind. SHe's got a decent length of hip and fair enough angles to hip, but is a bit straight in the shoulder. Length of back and neck are hard to judge on a horse this age. Her neck is tied on fairly high for a horse of stock horse heritage.

Her older age photo gets interesting, especially since taken from the opposite angle. SHe certainly appears more sickle hocked in the newer photo! Her neck has lengthened of course, but the photo angle makes if impossible to see if it is of a decent length. You can still see how high it is tied on and that it is a fairly straight neck. This photo still shows how she turns outward on the forelimbs and it also makes her appear back at the knee. She has a definite hi/lo syndrome going on in her hooves - proper trimming will correct that. She has fairly straight pasterns, which aren't a major issue because they are of decent length (as opposed to short, upright pasterns or long, upright pasterns). This photo also shows her with a VERY straight shoulder angle. From this view it looks as if she is goose rumped! I prefer more spring to the rib too. Her head is plain with lowset ears, short chin that can denote a horse with a slow, resistant mind. IF she's a horse you wouldn't mind using up quickly - go for it, but if you are looking for a durable horse - keep looking.
