jX/TORGAX HORSES are generally chestnut, 

 brown, bay, or black, and extensive white 

 marks are not common. A little under 15 hands is 

 the average height, with the average weight around 

 1,000 pounds; but, as in all breeds, considerable 

 variation is to be found, some very attractive indi- 

 viduals weighing rather more than 1,200 pounds. 



This breed has always been noted for smooth lines, 

 good style, easy keeping qualities, endurance, and 

 docility — the latter, however, not being obtained at 

 a sacrifice of ambition or courage. 



Small ears, full eyes with great width between 

 them, crested necks, well-sprung ribs with the last 

 one close to the point of the hip, deep barrels, fairly 

 level croups, full quarters, and enduring legs and 

 feet are the qualities that have made Morgan horses 

 famous for a century.
