Quote:That is exactly what I was asking for. Thank you so much. Now when I go back to look, I'll know what I'm looking for and hopefully be able to see it better. Maybe if I type it all out on a larger sheet, too...I'm going to have to invest in a pedigree program, or spend some time working up my own. Hmmmmm... I'm not sure I have that kind of time. lol

Quote:Those would be included in the quest for improvement, yes. A thicker neck - there is a point where a neck is too thick, too short, or set too low at the shoulder and chest area. A thicker throatlatch isn't a fault IMO as long it doesn't hamper airflow. If it's too thin, the horse doesn't have enough air, such as the current trend for the smallest, tightest throatlatch.

Quote:I disagree to a point on the thick throat. It can make it difficult for a horse to "collect" itself if they have a throat that is thick or if they don't have enough "room" between bony structures in the jaw and neck to flex.
