RE: long backed arabians

["Peggy Bergman-Smith" <peglets@lightspeed.net>]

Karen:  Your post caught my eye because I have an 8-year old SW Dawid filly.
She is flea-bit grey, long-legged and really pretty. She moves absolutely
beautifully and is as sure-footed as a mountain goat. She is 15.1 and has a
wonderful temperament. Her only drawback - not her ancestry's fault - is
that she was raced for 2 years and I'm still working on getting rid of the
race horse habits - she can be a bit hot and is still learning to listen to
her rider.
She is also a bit longer backed than my other Arab.
