But yeah, one thing I've heard is not just the studdish behavior, it's gaining weight on their front end. Is that accurate? I believe that the filling out up front and additional muscle is supposed to put more strain on their forelegs. I could be making all this up in my head, but that's what I seem to remember.
I know Citation was out for a year and came back, but I don't gather that he was bred to mares that time.
