Offspring 2000 (foals)
The collection of Osmium foals was sufficiently uniform and sufficiently riding type. Development ranges from moderate to more than sufficient. The foals are moderately to more than sufficiently in rectangular model and they show refinement. The head is sufficiently expressive. The poll has good length and shape. The neck has sufficient length but is a little vertical and varies in muscling. The wither is well developed and long. The shoulder has good length and position. The back is a little deep. The muscling is sufficient. The loins should be better connected. The croup slopes and should be longer. The muscling of the croup is good. The hamstring is sufficiently long. The foreleg is generally tense. The hindleg is often long and sickle hocked. The legs are fragile. The walk is pure and has sufficient scope. The hindleg is brought underneath actively and sufficiently far, but there should be more carrying power. The canter is generally short. The impulsion is moderate. The foals tense the foreleg and there should be more balance.
The remark must be made that the inspection took place on moderate footing.
One foal that was inspected at home fit in with the rest of the picture.
Veterinary remarks: One foal has a spavin and two others should have a better finished hock.
The quality of the mares was good.
Shown: 24 (+1) foals out of 108 breedings.
