Re: [RC] Kann (picture) - Karen Sullivan----- Original Message ----- From: "Diane Trefethen" <tref@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> I must be missing something. I looked at the picture of Kahn and I think he looks like a nice Quarterhorse. I do not see one Arabian trait, as described by Homer Davenport (http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Estates/3095/HDTheArabian.html) in that horse, except his incredibly tiny ears. No jibba, large muzzle, small jowls, not clean throat latch, large, strong neck tied in low, low set tail with no lift, heavy, large body on relatively (to the body) short legs. And worst of all, he's a downhill horse, placing all that substantial body weight squarely on the front end. Remember, this guy's 15'1". I got to agree with Diane..although he is a chunky, strong looking horse, he also looks downhill to me in that photo....with very little refinement, and very short neck. Perhaps moving, with neck ached and tail up; he would look better; but that standing photo does not impress me at all. On the other hand, don't think I ever saw a bad photo of Witez II (a favorite of mine)....
