He looks more Andalusian to me - if I didn't know he was kiger, he'd pass for Andalusian easily..very nice boy!!

Breathtaking... that's the best word I can think of to describe him.  But if I had to pick one thing to critique, it would be that his throatlatch seems a little thick to me. He looks enormous next to the other horse. How tall is he? |

He's just 15 hands, but the mare is maybe 14 hands. Cloud is the first foal out of Joan's mare Belle Star when I owned her. I bought Belle when she was pregnant and then realized that she was just two. Chinook wears a 78 sheet so he is a lot of horse, but not overly tall.
His throat latch is a bit thick, especially compared to TBs and QHs. I think his neck is heavy for the rest of his body, although that's improved since he was gelded last summer.

Not Belle Starr... Rosabelle. ;D I know you know that, just clarifying as my Belle Starr never had children. I also see the time you posted and that'd be the reason. LOL!
