You will be judging this class of three quarter horses. Please design reasons for this class. Remember that quarter horses focus on type and muscling...MUSCLING!!!!
Post your placings and your reasons before reading mine.
I placed this class of Quarter Horses 3-2-1. I placed 3 at the top of the class for showing the greatest degree of muscling and being the most ideal for Quarter Horses.
I placed 3 over 2 because 3 showed the most tone and muscle from end to end. He had sharper-chiseled features in the face with a tighter throatlatch. He showed a longer, leaner neck tying into a longer sloping shoulder. He stands straighter and more structurally sound.
I do grant that 2 had a shorter more powerful topline and was stronger in the hind end.
I placed 2 over 1 for showing more style and refinement. 2 exhibited heavier muscles. He was deeper in the chest, and more powerful in the hind end. Two showed better balance and a more sloping shoulder. Two was straighter across the topline.
I do grant 1 stood much straighter on the hind end.
It is for all these reasons that I placed this class of quarter horses 3-2-1.
