Deliboz Line
So I have just started [a few days ago in fact] to start breeding a line of Deliboz, but with a little bit of my own twist to them. My end goal is to breed a line of Deliboz that has a nice short - long, dished face, shallow jowl, long neck, sloped shoulders with a low point, deep rib cage, flat hip angle and long hips, thin legs, forward stifle, long back and downhill croup. These horses (if it goes as planned) will be exceptionally fast, and will have decent stamina as well. Currently I am struggling on keeping the dished face with the long neck.
Conformation
Since I am almost useless with technology, I am not able to actually show the conformation that I am looking for, but will try the best that I can.
The plus signifies where the green would be.
If I have two plus signs, that would be the range that I am looking for
So here is the conformation scale:
Head & Neck Conformation

[------------------------------+-----------------+]
Face Length (Short ↔ Long)
[+-----------------------------------------------+]
Jowl (Shallow ↔ Thick)
[+------------------------------------------------]

[--------------------------------------+---------+]

Withers/Shoulder Angle (Upright ↔ Sloped)
[-----------------------------------+------------+]
Point of Shoulder (Low ↔ High)
[+-------------------------------------------------]

[-------------------------------------------------+]

[+-------------------------------------------------]
