I was a little confused the other day as it looked like the highest point
on Finne's neck was in the middle instead of at the poll. But when I
looked closer, I realized his head set was fine, but that the nice arch in
his mane made his

IT SEEMS TO ME that "high headed" must logically be tied in with the neck,
length, how it is seated and relates to the shoulders, etc.

A horse can be high headed and not have presence, but horses (or other
animals for that matter too) that have presence tend to hold their
heads up with pride.

There are those who have very nice overall
conformation, and they might receive a breeding license, but because they
lack the presence of the special few, they may not be ranked in the top
three. It is most important that the horse give

It would be interesting for the evaluators to be able to quantify in their
own minds the physical things that result in their perception of "presence"
as there is the possibility that we could be unconsciously moving in the

I think presence is a major asset in a show horse and I don't think it
has anything to do with aggression or bad manners.
I have a Border Terrier that has that presence. She made a fabulous

Yes, very well said. Charisma, pride, self-confidence whatever you
want to call it. It comes from within and cannot be taught. When you
see it you know it.

Another thing that I believe contributes to the perception that people call
"presence" is *high headedness.*
