    This is a very helpful video. Can you explain different neck confirmations with what to avoid and the optimum ratio. I am also curious about flaws intake threat where the neck connects to head

    different confirmation for different disciplines. Molly may not rein and rope well, though she would be excellent in dressage and other classes. Good talk CRK

    It is very good but pedagogy is never the strength of these videos. I'd love to see something that says a) Here is a deficient shoulder, now look at its effects when the horse is trotting. b) Here is a correct shoulder, see now at the trot how it makes a big difference. But that takes a lot of resources so thanks for the video still.

      Javier Bonilla.- But she does begin by giving you the wisest and most comprehensive advise there is, namely: ..-"the horse basically has to look beautiful and well balanced"- .
      The differences you demand to be shown, are too subtle to be detected in a video or by an inexperienced eye. They only become apparent as a hindrance when the horse is submitted to very heavy work or to perform full power or agility demanding exercises, like in very high jumping, racing, polo, cutting and the like. This means that at least 90% of horses are perfectly suitable for at least 90% of the riding that is practiced in this day and age.

      Yes that would be interesting and instructive. By now I can tell exactly how horse will move based on it's structure alone, this would also be very easy to show on a lunge. Most beginers wouldn't be able to tell.

      Brianne Geoghegan Mustangs have a lot of variation from influence of stray or released tame horses that intermixed with the herds. There are many who are best suited for western or pleasure, but certainly a few are good English prospects. They tend to be smaller horses, but some can be a bit bigger, there's one in particular (sorry I can't remember the name!) that has a lot of draft influence and produces very large horses. They are known for being brave, hardy, and pretty sound, all good traits for any competition horse, and there are a few that have been successful in jumping disciplines - I know specifically in eventing there is Elisa Wallace's Hwin. There are a lot of mustangs in holding pens desperately needing homes, and if you are up to the challenge of working with one or know someone you trust to do it for you, I would definitely encourage you to go look! My advice would be to take a trainer experienced in show jumping and looking for prospects with you to your nearest holding pen, where you can often view hundreds of horses at once. I'm sure one will catch your eye! You also may want to consider an off-track thoroughbred if you are interested in helping horses that need homes, they are more traditional English-style horses and have at least had a rider on them before. Hope I helped :)
