Default Critique this mare!

This mare is a possible purchase, and I was wondering what everyone thought of her. She would be used as a kids horse, small shows and trails.
She is a 14.2 hand, 7 year old paint x.




I've asked for some more confo pics, so when I get them I'll post them.
Any and all comments welcome!

she looks nice. I like her coloring. The 2 things i noticed is that her neck looks a little short and her back looks a little long.

I agree with Appy. She's beautiful though and I'm sure the kids would love her.

i didn't see the age

Well then i have to say, if that horse is showing, i would expect her to have some collection.

Do you have any videos of her moving?

Depends on the discipline my horses are hunters and we want them to go long and low, the swan neck is kind of ugly.
