If I were being nitpicky, on top of what others have said about her neck, I'd say in the pics she looks a tad long in the back, but nothing major. In any event, if she's as smart and willing as her eyes make her look, it ought to make up for the pinnyany things we can pick apart, lol.
This horse is the definition of "willing" ... she just loves moving, jumping, being ridden. Not "perfect" by any means but I think she has the ability for what I want (and yes, she's smart :)
I have to say, I must disagree about the neck comments I've seen thus far. Shes a Morgan! Honestly, go read up on the "type" for foundation style Morgan horses. ( http://foundationmorganhorse.com/ )
When I read your description of her not being very "typey," and then when I saw your photos of her, I thought, no way! She's very Morgan! I worked at Statesman's Farm in MD for a bit in my high school days. All I can see with her is that she needs to develop a bit more muscle to look like your typical morgan. The basics are there, they just need fine tuning :)
I think she's actually more typey in person than in these photos, and she did a lot of dressage competition last year so she's got more muscle. But she's still lightly-built compared to the other horses at her breeders' place. (And they are mostly related to each other!) Not quite as round, a little more aloof (which means friendly, but not trying-to-search-your-pockets friendly)...

I still love her. She's so pretty, has nice form, and seems alert. But that's where my contribution ends.
