It gives so much, combined to the correct high stepping and free action in front, to the overall look of elegance and grace of our breed! On the contrary, some lost their nice standing outline when moving, being rather low at withers: it detracts a lot of quality to the overall picture. A few were missing coat on their topline; I believe they should not be shown being not in condition. I liked my winners very much. 1516.
