I have had the great pleasure to work with a Conformation Expert - Judy Wardrope (JW Equine). She has changed everything I thought I knew about conformation.
The first thing she looks at (so it must be the most important thing) is the LS joint and it's location. Now to find out that location (because I am not the expert) you need to buy her e book - "Conformation for the Western Disciplines." Judy says the LS joint is like a transmission in a truck. It has to be in the proper place in order to pull the heavy loads.
The next thing is the triangle in the hip. It starts at the point of the hip to the point of the buttocks - then the point of the buttock to the stifle - then the stifle to the point of the hip. Those lines need to be an equallateral triangle for the hip to function properly.
There is much more that can be said about the front end - however I am not the expert that Judy is. She has books and clinics you can gain information from.
iIf the horse is made to do their job - then you don't have to keep convincing them to do their job. It becomes easy. Breeding doesn't always insure that you will have a winner. We are still looking for the individual.
