Horse Quartermark

Decorative markings brushed into the horse’s coat–quarter marks–enhance the conformation of a well-muscled hip and croup, and draw attention to the cleanliness and shine of a well-conditioned show horse. Quarter marks not only highlight a horse’s conformation and give correct turnout a finishing touch, they can also reflect personal style and add some fun for special occasions.

  • First photo is NOT Andrew Nicholson! Andrew Nicholson is a New Zealander. Highly offensive to suggest he is Australian!
