A coon foot is sometimes presented as being simply a broken forward digit axis, and sometimes, while still a broken forward axis, as a digit with a pastern at a very low angle, parallel or nearly parallel to the ground. One may presume that in this condition heels will lower and toe will elongate; this is associated with a weak pastern, damage to the suspensory ligament or chronic founder where the horse rocks back on the heels to relieve pressure at the toe. 3, record 3, English, - coon%20foot

The head is often finely chiseled, narrow at the muzzle, with a broad forehead. It is known for its "floating trot"-full of impulsion and suspension. The Trakehner possesses a strong, medium-length back and powerful hindquarters.

It’s desirable that the horse should be built slightly uphill (from croup to wither) rather than the opposite, croup high. The croup-high horse will find it more difficult to collect. In collection the horse needs to flex his hocks and lower his croup taking the weight behind; this is called the ability to "sit." Being croup high can also make it easier for a horse to lose balance. 2, record 10, English, - croup%2Dhigh

A beautiful, delicate head characterizes the Arabian, often with a "dished" or concave profile below large, prominent eyes; a high-set, arched neck; and a naturally high tail carriage. The back is short and straight; the withers are pronounced and long; the chest is muscular, deep and broad; the shoulders long and sloping; the legs muscular with broad strong joints and clearly defined tendons; and the hooves small with very tough horn, wide at the heel. These points of "type" give the Arabian its distinctive beauty. The ideal height for an Arabian is between 14. 2 and 15 hands and may be chestnut, gray, bay, and black. White markings on the face and legs are common. The coat is fine and silky and the skin is invariably black. The mane and tail are full. 5, record 11, English, - pure%20bred%20Arab

The Arab is possibly the most beautiful and most noble of all breeds of horse. There is no other horse that has the perfect combination of courage, stamina and speed, along with loyalty and gentle affection. Its hot-blooded nature and stunning good looks have been admired for hundreds of years. Many of the world’s breeds have been developed by crossing the Arab with more cold-blooded, docile horses with a heavier build. 6, record 11, English, - pure%20bred%20Arab
