War Horse is a moderate framed, great built boar that is extremely wide made from end to end
He comes at you up front with a big skull, wide chest floor, bold shoulder and a huge well-sprung rib cage
Going away he has a big expressive top, extra wide square rump and the thickness and expression of center ham and stifle to make any judge take note
Stout structured yet youthful in his bone structure, War Horse has a powerful forearm, big blade and very good mass yet flat bone front and rear
Extremely well balanced, War Horse is tall at point of shoulder, level designed with a long level rump
Very sound and functional he moves out free and easy and places all four appendages squarely on the ground with ease and authority
An outcross to many of current show pig Duroc boars, War Horse does not have Can't Deny It, Can't TouchThis or Buck Cherry in his pedigree
There are a number of very influencial Duroc boars in his pedigree including Totally Juiced, Bold Stroke, Bold Adventure, Tinsley, Kobe, Cornhusker, Great Dane and Express
War Horse's dam also produced the Champion Duroc Barrow at the 2011 National Barrow Show and great grandam was the Reserve Champion Duroc gilt at NBS in 2007
Those who have seen War Horse are "all in". Ask Mike Lackey, Al Christian or Tye Lettow
Here's one that certainly fits the current show pig profile, yet has that extra power to be one you would want to take to war in the show pig arena
With his phenomenal lean growth curve (139 day, 0.50 BF, 9.25 LEA) War Horse can also be a great contributor to making high performance commercial Duroc lines.
