Arabian Type







Of these two horses, which one displays more Arab type? Why?

The first horse pictured exhibits more arabian type, including a broad forehead tapering into a small muzzle with a sturdy jaw and large, flaring nostrils. He has a larger, more expressive eye, and smaller, more correctly pointed ears. He can be faulted on his length of face, as he has a lot of distance from his eye to his nostrils. However, he still places over the second horse, who is narrow between his eyes and ears (at least how he is pictured), shows little flare in his nostrils and no tapering in his muzzle. It can be granted that he does have a large, round, eye proportional to his face.
