Offspring 2003 (foals)
Rash-R showed a varied collection of foals that are sufficiently to well developed, that stand sufficiently to good in the riding type and sufficiently to good in rectangular model. A number of foals are overbuilt.
The shape of the head varies, from expressive to somewhat long and coarse. The poll has sufficient length. The neck has sufficient length, good muscling and is sometimes a little deep from the chest. The wither has more than sufficient length and development. The shoulder has good length and more than sufficient position. The back is a little hollow but well muscled. The loins are sufficiently connected. The croup is long, well formed and well muscled. The hamstring is more than sufficient in length. The stance of the foreleg is correct. The hindleg is a little long and sickle hocked. The hock is shaped well. The base has quality, but varies in circumference.
The walk is pure and has more than sufficient scope and suppleness. The trot varies. The better developed foals trot with limited impulsion, scope and sufficient self carriage. The other foals show sufficient scope, more than sufficient impulsion and self carriage in the trot. The canter has barely sufficient scope, impulsion and self carriage. The foals jump easily into the canter and show more than sufficient balance.
There were 13 picked foals and 7 that were selected by the owner. One of the picked foals died prior to the evaluation. The selected foals made a positive impression in regards to impulsion, scope and self carriage in movement.
The quality of the mares varied.
Shown: 20 foals out of 71 mares that were bred in 2002.
