There are some people that argue that a flat croup is a desireable characteristic for long distance competitions… I like the sloping croup because we have lots of mountains out West, and feel like the sloping croup is more powerful for those long hill climbs.
Jim Holland thinks he’s got a lot of mountains in his neck of the woods, but we have bigger mountains!

Subject: Re: RC: RE: arab lines that do well in endurance
I have a Bey Shah grandson who is 7yrs old and has 1500 endurance miles, mostly middle of the pack. He was high point yearling colt in halter in Florida 1995. He has excellent bone and confirmation. Of course the mares line goes back to Kayoum and Khemosabi. He does not have a very long back but he does have the flat croup which I do not like, it does not seem to interfere with his performance. Also he is only 14.2 and that is why he was gelded as they want those big tall Arabs for the show ring and breeding. We are getting ready to do his first 100.
