How is this horse’s conformation & breed (pictures included)?
Question by : How is this horse's conformation & breed (pictures included)?
please ignore me in the pictures haha i don't have many pictures of just him. but i'd really like to know if you see any conformation flaws, and what they will make it harder for him to acheive, and also any good things about his conformation that will allow him to excel at something in particular. i don't know that much about judging conformation, so i need help! also, if you have any idea as to what breed(s) he is, please give me your input! Thanks!

Hmmmm... he looks like he could be a thoroughbred, i only say that because of his head and neck. his body is to stocky for him to be a thoroughbred. maybe a warmblood too. He's very muscular. try him at jumping and see how he does. he has the legs for it definitely.
Add your own answer in the comments!
I think he is a Thoroughbred X Quarter horse X warmblood. (He does have a large thick head like a Warmblood and has a long neck like a Thoroughbred but he has a medium, muscly build like a Quarter Horse) He has a short back and legs but oddly enough he has a long neck and head. His shoulder doesn’t slope very much but I love his beautiful young looking face
His overall build makes me think he is a TB and draft cross. He has some big haunches on him, wide through the chest, stong bone, but also refinement.
I would definately be thinking jumper if he has grace and stamina for it.
Overall a nice looking horse. Would like to see a side shot of his wither area. That would be helpful.
i think he looks like a TB X Selle Francisse. hes really pretty. and i would use him for jumping. maybe 3 day eventing. but he deffinately doesnt look like a western horse to me.
