Re: [RC] [RC] Seabiscuit - Deanna GermanSo glad you bring this up, Heidi. So much was made about Seabiscuit being homely and small, but when I saw photos of him, other than the front legs, I thought he looked built like a brick sh**house, to borrow a phrase from my rural upbringing. I can't help but believe that his overall build was why he was so athletic and why he was able to run 80+ races. Deanna ---------------------------------------------- Which once again demonstrates the concept that too often conformation is thought?to mean "legs" when it is really the balanced body that is responsible for the athleticism.? From what I've seen of pictures of this horse, he had a great body but?less-than-perfect legs.? Just one more example among many of horses that might have been rejected by folks who didn't?consider the whole package!? :-) ?
