The head of a national show horse is relatively small, short, and refined with large eyes and small, well-placed ears, and a straight or slightly concave profile. Their necks are very long, set high on the shoulder, and relatively upright with a fine throatlatch.
They have pronounced withers and a very deep and well laid back shoulder, with a proportionately short back closely coupled with a long hip and relatively level topline. The legs are correct from all angles with long forearms and short cannon bones in front and long, well-angled pasterns front and rear.
The NSH may be a variety of colors, including the traditional bay, gray, chestnut, and black of the Arabian, with Saddlebred ancestry adding a broader range of color than seen in the Arabian breed, including, most notably, pinto and palomino.
