i know what you mean about likes and dislikes. i personally don't like to see high withers on a horse...another thing i don't like is when the rear is higher than the withers-i've seen horses were their hind end was substantially higher. not sure if either has anything to do with running ability-just a personal quirk of mine. i like a smooth transition from neck to withers and then to the rear-with the withers and high point of the back end on level.
or is that just plain wrong??
i see bloodhorse has a conformation video for sale....anyone buy it yet? is it a good one?


stonesider is one i like:

but of course you can't get a great feel for the legs, since you can't get a head on and from behind view....
