Minimum quality criteria  
Prior to sale the horse should  satisfactorily pass next assessment:
(  1) - Is registered at Studbook
(  2) - Has an acceptable pedigree
(  3) - Has proper conformation/gaits
(  4) - Has no markings
(  5) - Is trained under saddle
(  6) - Has proper height/length mane
(  7) - Has a 'Super Character'
(  8) - Has clear willingness to work
(  9) - Is free of any (stable) vices
(10) - Passes clinical health examination conducted by registered, reputable veterinary surgeon or clinic

Temperament
First and foremost look into the eyes of the horse. Does it show a soft, curious look with large, round eyes, or does it have small and/or narrow eyes?

Conformation
Is the forehand proportionate to the hindquarter? Is the leg length proportionate to the body depth? Is the length of the neck proportionate to length of the back? Is the length of the head proportionate to length of the neck? Is overall bone and substance, such as size of hooves, proportionate to body mass?

Movement
View the horse not ridden and/or tacked up to examine its natural movement. Does it appear relaxed with natural balance in all movements?

Walk
Is walk free and loose as opposed to short and tight?

Stride
Is hock action proportionate to knee action? Do the shoulders move as freely as the knees and hocks (not more or less)? Look for degree of suspension and animation. More is better. 

Trot and canter
In free movement, is length of the stride from hindquarter equal to length of the forehand stride? Does the horse have natural extension in both trot and canter? How freely does the horse move in canter? Is there a 3-beat canter? Does the horse have a natural 'uphill' forward movement with natural 'swing' to its back?

Training level
A properly schooled horse can correctly demonstrate all of the movements required for the performance or competition level at which it is being sold
