so...you think you are the resident expert?
I won't put you down, because I don't know what experience you have had
but all I ask is you show the same respect to the rest of us
because our knowledge and experience may outweigh your own
by a long-shot, ya never know...you're just assuming
What is your degree? Equine Management or something else? How many studies have you conducted? I have done too many studies to count on conformation analysis of the Thoroughbred breed...of all horse breeds in every discipline. Give me some credentials and I will show respect. I may not be the only expert in this area, but no one else was speaking up or giving me any information to think otherwise. Rupert Pupkin is also an expert in the subject on this board. Larphage is good at it too. I will do a complete analysis on both barbaro and bernardini when I get back. I will say that Barbaro had very bad conformation, but he was built like a cheetah meaning that he was very, very fast. Also keep in mind that judging can be rather opinionated.
