Especially should he have marked con- stitutional vigor. The chest should be particularly deep and the front legs should be far enough apart to give good width of chest with the ribs well sprung. He should have no heaviness or coarse- ness in the withers and shoulders, beyond that which goes with his sex character. A bull, of course, does not have as fine withers.
