and see?? That riles me a little! What IS a pretty head!!?!? "Pretty" is relative! People say walking horses have "ugly jug heads". They have spanish heads! that aggravates me... and what is a good "neck"?? If a horse gaits well and has a big fat neck, then to me, its a good neck. Thats what a neck is for.
