What a beautiful horse! Unfortunately, we can only see his true beauty when he's at liberty. No offense to the rider, but under saddle, he is short-strided, and goes "high and hollow." This is because the rider is pulling on Marcus' face, not allowing him to relax his neck and round down, which would lift his back, give him the gorgeous, "swan" neck look that Arabians should have, and give the ride better communication through the bit. At liberty, we see an open shoulder, and lovely forwardness.
