Offspring 1990 (foals)
This stallion showed a uniform collection of foals. They have tuig type and are well developed. A few of selected foals could have been developed more generously. The head is a little long but sufficiently expressive. The neck is very well formed, shows much poll and is well carried. It is clear that the stallion improves on this point. The length and development of the wither are barely sufficient. The shoulder has the preferred length but, in several cases, should have more slope. The back is well muscled, sometimes a little long. The loins are well formed but in a few cases they are a little tight. The croup is wide, muscled, well shaped and barely sufficient in length. The foreleg is correct with a well-developed knee. The hindleg is almost always long and has a small angle. A few of the foals have a hock that is rather shallow and should be harder. The walk is sufficient. The foals look very good in the trot. Almost all the foals show front. The use of the hindleg should be more convincing. The foreleg should also grab more and should show more knee action. The picture of the trot is one that shows little scope.
In short: well developed, tuig type foals with a remarkably generous poll. The foals show front in the trot; the use of the hindleg should be more convincing.
Shown: 17 foals out of 57 breedings.
