she soooo reminds me of dutch or Westphalian/ Dutch filly. Those front pasterns are a little slopey which of course only add to her wonderful movement, but they are still a concern. Also in what i find to be typical warmblood style a lot lately is a decent shoulder with a neck that wants to come straight up out of it. (as in even though I bet she's pretty chill she often looks like she spots something REALLY interesting on the horizon) HOWEVER I have one of these horses myself and two in for breaking right now and I find it somehow does NOT impede their ability to be soft and flexible....they don't really want to do long and low though but I wouldn't label them as constant giraffes as I'd expect.

ok i'll shut up now.

she has very nice, long and slender legs. Her neck is a tad on the short side, and I'm not concerned with how it comes out of her shoulder though. If you removed her neck from her body, her back would look short, but given the length of her neck, her back actually appears quite long. She's cute, but oddly proportioned, HOWEVER, she is still growing.
