Horses with good conformation move fluidly, experience less wear and
tear on joints, and are more apt to stay fit. Explaining how
conformation relates to structure and function, Heather Smith Thomas
shows you how to identify a horse's desirable attributes and potential
faults. You'll learn to train your eye to see past an animal's physical
beauty and recognize proper balance, leg angles, and height as you
confidently select horses that have superior durability, trainability,
and athletic potential.
