Casper’s Conformation

This is Casper, he is a 13.2hh 5 year old QH/Caspian Pony cross. He’s pretty green, but I’ve been training and riding him about twice a week along with his owner, and he’s doing great! The plan is for him to be her kid’s eventing pony, and he should do great. I would love a critique of his conformation (have permission from his owner, she wants to know what you think), thanks!

Also, I swear he has a really nice, tail, he was just hiding it for the only decent picture i got of him :)

  1. Isn’t it fun when they swish their tails or blink just as you snap the picture? This guy has nice short cannons and good bone. His withers are pretty low. His shoulder is nice. His neck ties onto the shoulder well and he has a nice crest. His top line is smooth although he may be a bit “butt high”. His hind leg appears to be correct. Overall, he is well muscled and full bodied. Send us some action photos!

    Thanks for the critique! Next time I’m riding him I’ll try to get someone to videotape me :)

    Of course he would flick his tail. Horses are good at ruining a good picture by doing that.
