What is the textbook-perfect frame for English horses?

Does anyone have a picture or something? I want to know what a textbook perfect frame looks like.What is the textbook-perfect frame for English horses?
English has lots of disiplines. Are you talking about hunters, equitation horses, or dressage horses?



Hunters: Should NOT look like the quarter horse hunters! Unless you are doing the quarter horse breed shows, they shouldn't look like that. You'll hear long and low from every hunter trainer. We want a flat kneed, stretching trot. You want the horse flexed at the poll. here: http://www.laststrawstable.com/sitebuilder/images/PIC_1017-362x296.jpg



Equitation: Up in a frame. More like a dressage horse frame. Something that makes you look like you are working your horse .here:http://www.showrider.com/showrider/images/flatsample.jpg



dressage: up in their neck, very flexed at the poll. Big stride, flat kneed floaty trot, balanced flowing canter here: http://dressagenewsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/dressage_horse_blog1.jpg
It really depends on the discipline in the English world.



Hunter:

Typically, these resemble almost a "peanut-roller" type frame as seen in the Western pleasure horses. These pictures will show you some ideas of what is "typical" in the hunter ring (under saddle classes):

Jumper:

Typically, jumpers really should have impulsion and almost resemble dressage horses when working in a frame - the reason is because you want the power from behind to get up and over the jump.

Dressage:

Is almost exactly like what you would see in jumpers...but without the jumps. You want the impulsion from the hindquarters but you also want the elasticity in the limbs in order to perform the moves correctly.

I personally hate what english pleasure has become...



If ur doing english pleasure(or hunter under saddle), to me, the horse looks like hes been drugged and is trying to do western pleasure.

I like for an english horse to look like the traditional hunt horses from ENGLAND! they have ground eating strides, alert eyes, heads are up....the ones in the pic above look like they are hunting for rattlesnakes for godsake!

this is also very beautiful!
Depends on what you are in, exactly, like the other person said, and what level you are at. They should be, in the least, relaxed and through throughout theit body, their neck should be actually round- not the horse just tucking its head in and sticking its neck wherever.



Like this, but this wouldnt be sufficient for the higher levels---%26gt;

Although Im not sure if Becky is doing it perfectly, it kinda goes in that direction. And she can't be that bad, hello she made it onto the US olympic team!What is the textbook-perfect frame for English horses?
Mulereiner showed you a pic of a great HUS frame - here's the countries best hunter, Popeye K http://pets.webshots.com/photo/227380237鈥?/a>



both horses are correct, but for different disciplines. Would someone care to add a dressage horse?
Pony power is right. In Hunters the horses should be long and low. In Dressage the frame is rounded with the horse's hind end stretching and reaching underneath with connection on the bit.
I will search for a pic.. but ears level with withers, horse reaching under himself, with a flat kneed trot and extension...
