He's a Racking Horse. Probably registered as a Walking horse too if I had my guess. I think this particular horse was the 2004 Plantation Pleasure World Grand Champion. I may have the class wrong but he was the 2004 WGC something. The long feet create more lift and action in the front end, in combination with really thick shoes. To get even more rise in the front and squat in the back, they put the big 6 inch thick padded up shoes on top of all that hoof and you don't wanna get me started on all that coz I hate it.
I'm headed home now. Gotta go feed then I'll check in again later...
