I feel like when I choose colts I need the best bone possible. Normally my 2's and 3's are the brokest horses I have on the place. They get to sort, ship and doctor. In turn I worry about their structure. I'm not putting 10 mile circles on the little things but I'm looking for that prospect that matures quickly and retires sound.
What proven lines can handle harder riding at a younger age.

That's a tough one I have had it go both ways on the same lines. Just look at conformation. I personally think smaller horses aren't as hard on their bodies.
