What is an assessment?
Judges are assessing for athletic performance horses and breeding stock that can produce better and better sport horses.
How do I know if my horse has good conformation?
Conformation goes hand in hand with movement because a horse with conformational weaknesses must work harder when he eventually works under the rider.
The correctness of conformation is hereditary.
We should not forget, however, that there is no horse with perfect conformation
As the horse walks away from the judge on the triangle, he sees the view from behind: correctness of travel, hind-leg straightness, alignment of the steps, ease of movement of the joints, the swing of the tail - showing the clear four-beat walk rhythm, freedom of the shoulders and haunches and the ground-covering marching quality with regularity.
When the horse trots away from the judge, he notices the engagement and an active depart into the trot which, when we see the trot in profile, shows a correct rhythm, regularity, freedom in the joints, freedom of the shoulders and haunches and an elastic, swinging back. The assessor would also like to see some natural impulsion and engagement that create a degree of suspension.
As the horse comes back toward the assessor, he has an opportunity to observe the front legs for correctness.
An assessment gives the breeder a benchmark from which they can evaluate their breeding program to see where they can improve in the future.
An assessment gives the horse owner and rider an insight into where their horse’s fault lies and the knowledge that their horse can perform the specific task that is required.
Showjumpers, Dressage, Show Hack, Sporting horses all need different abilities and the assessor is looking for something different in each of those horses. ... See MoreSee Less
