Judging Horses 51 
99. Form. — In form, the draft horse should be massive, com- 
pact, blocky, and low set. Power and not speed is the require- 
ment, and in order to attain this the animal must be close to the 
ground, strong, and heavy. In animals of speed we find long 
bones, long muscles, and slightly angular joints; in animals of 
strength we find heavy bones, heavy muscles, and a comparative 
freedom from angularity about the joints (Fig. 30).
