Hey folks, 

What would you think if you saw a horse with a left rear stride that slightly twisted his foot with each step? Also, he has a roached spine (lumbar )not painful been there since a colt.  The horse is not mine, so I'm not able to post video.  He is for sale and I noticed this right away. He does not seem to be in pain, but he doesn't look to be striding out completely. I just don't know what to make of it. (I guess I do, but wondering what other's experiences were with this.)

Wringing hocks are indicative of hock and or stifle problems. Roach back usually indicates chronic stifle problems.
