Here's a picture of the Zigster walking up our track.
I would like to condition score him but I need some help!
He hasn't got a crest at all. I can feel his ribs, but I can't see them (they were visible a month ago). He doesn't have a gully on his bottom or fat on his tail head. The front of his shoulder looks pretty clean but I am not sure about behind the shoulder - could there be a fat pad there? I am not sure where they generally appear.
Would he be about a 3 at present? Or does the lack of ribs mean he is a 3.5?
