I think the other thing people need to look at is were the withers actually end and how much of the length is actually back. Some of these running bred horses have big shoulders, and withers and therefore the back isn't as long as it may look at first glance.

All I know of her history is that she was bought at an auction in ocala, Florida as a 1-2 year old. I'm guessing she's probably very cow bred, impressive or king/doc bar she has a giant head and stocky build.
