Heya! So Dreamtime is a 28 y/o Appaloosa gelding (not sure about his bloodlines/if he's the purest or purebreds, but he's definitely majority Appy) Tried my best to get him into a flat piece of ground, but he's an obstinate old sweetheart who was busy eating for the 15 minutes I was there.

First picture is gorgeous, but the rest he looks a bit rough, definitely could use a topline and a good brush. He looks post legged and camped under in the back, his shoulders and hips look pretty good, his neck is thin and he has a bit of a roman nose. Edited at March 3, 2021 01:11 PM by HMH Reality Check

Very pretty guy. He looks really good, maybe slightly over at the knee and his pasterns are a bit long, but everything else looks pretty great, nice round hindqu, nice hip and shoulder. Pretty face.

Gorgeous Mare, she's a bit butt high, but that's expected from a young horse, nice head and neck, her shoulder is a bit upright and her hips are good. Nice pasterns but is a bit over at the knee.

I just wanna say I'm in love. I absolutely love standardbreds. I worked training them at the harness track for years. I think the Roman nose isn't a fault. I think it's one of the best qualities. Your boy is super handsome in my eyes

I have a request. Could we post photos of our real horses + a horse we are thinking (or even just dreaming lol) of breeding them to and pick them both apart and see which ways they compliment (or don't) one another? Edited at March 3, 2021 01:26 PM by Iron Haven Quarters

Maybe we should have a separate forum for that :D

I think that is a good idea! I guess then it wouldn't impede on this thread lol
