For open/local shows she is fine.
The Paints are very competitive in Halter
She shows a fairly short thick neck
Coarse throatlatch
Slightly upright shoulder-but her shoulder matches her front end.
Cute either way


SORRY- if you could have photoshopped out the 2 kids sitting loose on other horse no helmets.
I kept being drawn to them.
I'm over religious about safety.

The middle photo would be the best to judge from since she is more square in this one (square shots for confo opinions is always best!)
First let me say; Amazing rear end. Nice, big and muscled. Though it's typical for babies of her age to have nice fatty rears. It will probably change some as she reaches weanling, yearling, to 2-yo stage.
Nice coloring, the blue eye is a little more rare for her not having more white on that face. Pretty!

Hocks are good and tie in pretty close in line with her rear (though she's not completely square) Hocks are a little high for me.
She is a little buck-kneed, sometimes a common characteristic in young foals. I wouldn't worry about it because it usually goes away after weanling stage.

Her throatlatch is thick. Jowl-sweats work.
Neck is short but shapely. If she looks as good as she does in the mid photo, she wouldn't be bad for the state show. Over-all she has good conformation.
