Purchasing a horse without analyzing his conformation is like buying a car without inspecting the engine, frame or alignment. No matter what breed or type of horse you are interested in, an accurate assessment of his physical makeup will help you determine his training and performance potential before he is even saddled. In this videotape,
Dr. Deb Bennett shares her vast knowledge of equine anatomy and biomechanics to outline the physical factors that are desirable for horses participating in a full range of equestrian activities. Through insightful discussion, real-life examples and anatomical charts and diagrams that provide external as well as internal views of equine structure and function, Dr. Deb Bennett's Secrets Of Conformation clearly demonstrates what to look for as you perform conformation analyses of your own whether you are a buyer, trainer, rider or breeder.
