Offspring report

Offspring 1993 (foals)
This stallion showed sufficient to well developed foals. They appear to be long lined and sufficient in the riding type. The head is a little long but has sufficient expression. The neck has good length but the transition to the wither/shoulder formation should be smoother. The poll ahs sufficient length. The wither lacks a little in development but has sufficient length. Even though the shoulder has sufficient length on the whole, it should have more slope. The back is long. The loins should have better muscling. The croup has good shape and sufficient muscling but should be longer. The foreleg is correct but could have more substance. The hindleg is correct. The walk is sufficient in scope and power. The foals show little scope in the trot because of a slow hindleg and little freedom of the shoulder. There is suppleness.
The selected foals were more refined, their heads were more expressive, the neck was better as was the slope of the shoulder. The trot was more appealing.
The veterinary remarks pertained to some hocks that could have been better finished and hocks that should have been more developed. The mares were of average quality.
In short: sufficient to well developed foals that trot easily but they have a hindleg that should come underneath better and they should have more freedom in the shoulder.
Shown: 21 foals out of 99 breedings.
