Can long pasterns prohibit a horse from having a career in jumping?
Yes. Although a decent lenght of pastern gives the horse a comfortable ride, pasterns that are too long can be a detriment, especially in the sport of jumping. Long, very sloped pasterns can break down with repeated stress, which of course jumping is. If you have a horse with this kind of conformation it may be a good idea to find a less demanding sport. Remember also to use wraps or protective boots when doing vigorous work with your horse. Added caution:When a horse comes down on the other side of a fence his front feet and legs hit the ground first taking all the weight and concussion. Something to think about with long pasterns.
